Encouragement

Why do people need encouragement?

Encouragement is a pillar of our self-esteem. We have two areas of criteria
from which we base our self-esteem; one is our opinion of ourselves and the
other is the opinion of us we receive from outside sources. Encouragement is
only beneficial to someone when it supports the way the universe wants us to
see ourselves. Anything other than this form of encouragement is actually
discouragement.

Our true opinion of ourselves should only come from our soul, or our true
center which is in constant contact with it’s truth. It is this opinion of us we
receive from the universe, which is free of judgment and sees us as perfect in
a world of imperfection.

When we encourage someone to go in a direction of our choosing and against
their center we are distracting them from who they are meant to be and
pressuring them to go in a direction we have chosen for them. This is not
encouragement it is an act of control. This control may, in the short run, get
us what we want but in the end we may be responsible for creating someone’s
personal failure. We may even exacerbate the persons ability to follow their
own inner compass.

We must walk our own walk from our spiritual center and encourage others to
listen to and be guided by their own signal even if it is in direct opposition to our needs. Selflessness is a by product of knowing that success can only be achieved as a whole and not selfishly.

Encouragement is helping someone listen to their indwelling directions within
and not an attempt to prevent someone from making mistakes. We must all
admit that mistakes have been just as important to our successes as our
successes. Our mistakes and failures have forged our successes into our soul.

Let us all commit to encouraging everyone we know and becoming examples of
this encouragement by allowing ourselves to follow our own inner guidance. Remember...

Your life is PERECT!
PAY ATTENTION!!!

Love,
Randy Ek

Too Blessed to be Stressed - A friend left this on my facebook fun wall. I am reposting it here to encourage you not to loose hope Woke up this morning…. lying in bed, I was asking myself…. what are some of the secrets of success in life? I found the answers right there, in my very room. The fan said : be cool. The roof said : aim high. The window said : see the world. The clock said : every minute is precious. The mirror said : reflect before you act. The calendar said : be updated. The door said : push hard for your goals. “If you do, you will, but if you don’t, you won’t. If you’re not able, you don’t have to.” Encouragement- Someone will always be smarter and greater than you. Their house will be bigger. They will drive a better car. Their children will do better in school. And their partners will fix more things around the house. So let it go and love yourself and your circumstances. Think about it. The prettiest/most handsome person in the world may not have it all. And the most highly favored person on your job may be unable to have children. The richest person you know - has the car, the house, the clothes might be heartbreakingly lonely. So, Love who you are right now. Tell yourself, “I am too blessed to be stressed.” Be blessed everyone and pass this on to encourage someone else. “To the world you might be one person, but to one person you just might mean d world” God has spoken once and 2ce we have heard, “This is our year of supernatural accomplishments and God will perfect all that concerns us this year. AMEN.
