Everyday life can present us with opportunities to make us
squirm. Countless numbers of tasks that we are juggling can
cause dead lines to make that big swishing sound as they go
flying by us. So, the next time you find yourself short on time
and long on need, don't take a long walk off a short pier. Try
this instead.
That's The Way The Ball Bounces!
Have you ever wondered why? Words! Yep, that's it, those tiny
little stinking no good for nothing, words that you don't even
remember saying; Maybe two months ago, maybe a year ago, maybe
last week.
You might not want to hear this; but, words have a creative
force inside them. They create whatever meaning they contain.
They are like a seed planted in the ground. They will bring
forth whatever they are.
You plant an apple seed you gonna get apples. And I don't care
how much you wish it was bananas; it ain't gonna happen. Now, we
all know this is true and no one with half a brain will argue
with it.
A Backhanded Compliment!
But, isn't it amazing how we go around saying junk like; "that's
just my dumb luck", "I think I'm taking a cold", "they're not
ever going to give me that raise", etc. And then we are shocked
beyond belief when life slaps us upside the head with a dead
fish. We say, "Wha'd I do?
Ah...don't even try to figure it out. It's long gone now and the
words have already done their damage. You see, most of the time,
we don't pay any attention to the words themselves and their
repercussions.
But, try this on for size; you are actually creating your entire
world with the words you speak. Proverbs tells us that, "life
and death are in the power of the tongue". So, don't get mad at
me, I didn't say it, Proverbs is a lot older than I am. :>)
Bone Of Contention!
Another way you could say it is; success and failure are in the
words we speak; poverty and prosperity are in the words we
speak; health and sickness are in the words we speak. That's not
always a comforting thought, to think that we might have some
responsibility for some of the junk we've produced.
Right now, ask yourself this question! "How do I feel
emotionally at this moment"? Do you feel up? Do you feel down?
Do you know why? The words you speak on a daily basis are the
ignition switch directly to your emotions.
Your words are like a generator; your emotions are like a
receiver. Every time you turn your generator on, you send signals to your receiver that will respond
in kind. Send positive words, you'll get a positive emotional
response, send negative destructive words, you'll get a negative
response.
Just By Word Of Mouth!
You can make yourself sick with words; you can make yourself
well with words. You can make yourself afraid of your own shadow
with words. You can even kick a gift horse right in the mouth
with your own words; I know I've done it.
If you need to make some drastic changes in your life, start
paying attention to the words of your mouth. Many times in a
difficult and challenging situation, your head will tell you;
you're sunk, it can't be done, your goose is cooked, and all
sorts of garbage.
The only reason your head says that is because you've said
something sometime damaging with your mouth. Your head would not
have known to say that to you if your mouth had not taught it to
your head.
By retraining your mouth, you by default, retrain your head.
Then your heart will begin to send up the words that you
retrained it with. Your heart will say things like, "I'm more
than a conqueror!" And, "no matter what happens, I win!"
Time For An About Face!
"Vegas, are you telling me that I can make things start going
right in my life by getting rid of my foot-n-mouth disease?"
Absolutely! In fact, it's the surest way when you find yourself
short on time and long on need.
You see, when your emotions receive words that heal and uplift,
then you will feel energized and empowered. You will feel a
stirring down in your belly that you'll want to keep. And, the
way you keep it is by putting a watch over your mouth.
Anyone who has never experienced what I'm talking about is truly
living on the short end of the stick. You really have to
experience the feelings that take place in your emotions to
fully understand what this can do and what it's all about.
Down On Your Luck?
I don't care how beat down someone is or how bad their
circumstances may be. By retraining your mouth you can
experience emotions that you never thought you had, beginning in
only three days.
But, don't be one who makes excuses rather than taking control
over your mouth. I will tell you this; it's not easy to retrain
your mouth. Not because it's hard in and of itself. What makes
it so hard is; people have a hard time believing that their
mouth could cause them so much trouble.
So, they look for other solutions that seem to be more
believable. Solutions that are hard and complicated. Like
getting "even" when someone has wronged them.
Better To Forgive And Forget!
Well guess what? During the time they're planning their
vengeance; their mouth is talking about what they'll do. And,
all that garbage is being funneled down into their emotions to
cause future problems.
And, even if they're not verbalizing audibly what they'll do,
they're meditating on it which is creating bad vibrations that
are being sent to the emotions. And, the emotions can't resist
it because our emotions are just a receptacle.
Another thing you can do is; stop trying to know that every
thing in your life is as it should be. Relax your mind, your
emotions, and your body. It's when we're thinking of only our
self that we face our greatest struggles.
Serious As A Heart Attack!
That's when we see nothing but grief darkness and failure. No
one, not even God can change you or your circumstances as long
as you insist upon looking at and thinking of and worrying about
yourself and your problems.
Your problems may be severe, but your mind will make them much
worse than what they really are. And, then your emotions will
make you feel like life is just a series of disappointments
followed by death.
There is a part of human nature that seems to thrive on making
us focus on "us". Especially when we are focusing on the
troubles and challenges we are facing. In fact, there is
probably nothing our human nature would rather think about than
"us".
So Hungry I could eat a….
So, on the lighter side, let me leave you with this; if you feel
that things are really bad right now; then try eating one live
toad first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to
you the rest of the day. I promise. :>)
