A HEALING CONNECTION

Today, it is all about making a healing connection. Are you trapped in a prison of your own making? In trying to protect yourself from the world’s negative forces, you might end up locking yourself up from life. I know that, I did that for years, then I broke out, and it was a scary but exhilarating feeling, and now all I want to do is touch and FEEL again, because it does feel good. I want to impart and infuse my own contribution of love, back to the world and the universe. There indeed is no greater feeling than realizing that you truly are in control of your destiny and happiness. Sometimes you hurt, sometimes you smile, that is LIFE! HAHAHAHAHAHA, and life is beautiful and good in all its imperfections, hills and valleys, life is good, and it is for the living. So, dare to live, which is the title of one of my favorite songs by Andrea Bocelli, VIVERE!

As usual, it will not be the same without all your support, please continue to support my work, by leaving your comments and feedback on my website, social media and most of all, the cheapest but most generous gift, SHARE! I take so much pride and time in creating this work, it is 3 am, and I have to rise up in 2.5hours and live the real reality of life, kids, and all other important things. Yet, when my soul and passion called for this message, I stayed up all night crafting and editing my work, because as I go to bed soon, I am hoping that while I sleep, maybe someone out there, hurting and numb from being numb their whole adult life, may hear my heart, and start to ease the shackles off.

Is that you? Am I awake this late for you? Well, then it was all worth it. For one, I will do what my heart says do, I LOVE YOU, reading this right now, and you are more worthy of all the attention and peace of the love of God. Seize your happiness, enough playing safe, dare into the world, LIVE, hahahaha, LIVE, or die numb, ….or do you feel dead inside already? Call me, let me lead you out, let me hold your hand, let me hear how you are doing, reach out to someone, even if not me, reach out to those who love you. Find someone, or call me, use my Coaching services, let me help you ease your suffering.

Follow my blog so you get updates to posts, then go find me on Facebook, twitter, Instagram and like/follow me. Then SHARE always. Be blessed

HONOR YOUR COMMITMENTS

In my last post, I talked about the importance of honoring you role to yourself. I said that the most important human being on this earth should be you, not so that you can be selfish, but that your role as your champion should lead you to pursuing the best of life, so that you can be and give your best to those you love and who depend on you.

Today I want to talk about honoring you commitments, not only to yourself but to others. When we accept who we are and what we are here for, it is no secret that we enter into commitments with people, with our jobs, home leases, cars, friendships, marriages, and many other forms of commitments. However, how much practice do we have with keeping our commitments?

Truth is, a lot of us fail at commitments, not because we are bad people or not trustworthy, it is hard to do your best every day and succeed at it every single time. So, we get hard on ourselves, we feel dejected and sometimes we are afraid to try again, to make it right. What we forget is that the people we disappoint, or the people we think will not forgive our wrongs, are just as human as we are. We often let ego get in the way, and we reject ourselves even before we are rejected.

Make your commitments and keep them. Be the best colleague you can be, try to be the best partner, parent, child, friend. Know that dropping the ball is part of life, but know and have the humility to ask for a second chance to make things right. People are not as hard-hearted as we think. We make them that way when we behave in a manner that makes them feel they need to protect themselves from you. Avoid making a habit of breaking your commitments, for sooner than later, you lose the relationships you have worked hard to build, whether in business or personal. Do not however, run away from commitment, how else will you achieve your goals if you do not commit.

This week, practice your commitment to the little things, and then the big things. If things do not go according to plan, regroup, try to make it right, and if it is too late, move on and be better on the next task. Let me hear and read from you, what is your take on honoring you commitments? Have you made a commitment to yourself, that you will pursue a particular dream, goal, purpose, explore your gifts? What is going on with that commitment, what are you doing to honor your commitment to the most important person on this earth, you? Dig in, reach deep and commit to begin the most authentic you, that you can be, then try each day to be the best of that authentic self, see the magic happen. It may not rain money, buy oh it will rain joy, and soon enough, your joy in your purpose and authenticity will lead to the comfortable life you crave, financially, spiritually, emotionally and in relationships. Have an amazing week!

LOOKING FOR MENTORS & MENTEES

ANNOUNCING A MENTORSHIP PROGRAM

To whom much is given, much is expected. Announcing A Mentorship Program. I have been thinking about this for a long time, but I always stopped myself from starting it because I never felt like I had anything yet that I could share in a significant way. Yet, when I think about the fact that no matter how little our gifts or limited our resources, there’s always someone who could benefit from the small we are willing to share. I know, because even I crave and seek mentors who are even just one step ahead of me in what I’m doing or trying to do. I know the value of a leg-up. So, the buck starts with me/us.

If you are interested in Positive Enrichment, motivating others, writing and just starting the process of chasing your dreams, but you’re nervous, afraid to start your own blog, or don’t know where to go, I’m willing to share the little space I have so far.

For closet writers or artistically gifted on any content that is teaching & uplifting like : health, food, poetry, business & technology, photography, art, motivation, or video blogging, email me at pearlsofourlives@gmail.com. Present a snippet of your content & what you’re looking for.

Selected content will be featured on my blog pearlsofourlives.com, or on my new YouTube channel Pearls of Our Lives. For content I’m good at, I’ll mentor on what I know. For others I will point you to other mentors

FOR MENTORS

IF you’re interested in being a MENTOR or Big Brother / Big Sister in your genre of expertise, let me know & join the cause to give back. We are Connecting Angels

It takes a village, let’s share, rise & shine together 😊

DO YOU NEED HELP?

How many of us go through life thinking we have to solve all our problems?

How many of us are scared to ask for help, for whatever reasons?

How many of us think asking for help is a sign of weakness?

How many of us don’t want others to say they helped us?

So many reasons why we fail to avoid simple stumbling blocks,

mistakes that delay and derail us. Asking for help is a sign that

you are ready and willing to grow as fast as you can, and that

you are confident and secure enough to not care what others

might think.

You have a lot to gain by seeking those who are

doing something you want to do. Be prepared to return the

favor to those who need you some day, it’s a cycle of kindness

& wealth. Seek help, seek mentors, and if you don’t find one,

at least, you tried. Remember, if you want to fly, don’t

seek advice from one who has never flown before, choose

your mentors wisely, those who can further your goals.

A MEANINGFUL CONNECTION

Find the time to make a meaningful connection whenever

life gives you the opportunity. There are many gifts the earth

grants us on a daily basis, to open spiritual doors into a more

peaceful existence. Being there for someone, is one of those

gifts we give but in return we are the ones on the receiving end.

Do not deprive yourself the gift, GIVE of yourself today

THE DOCTRINE OF WEALTH- THE DESTINATION, THE ARRIVAL?

PEARLS ON WEALTH

Money, Money, MONEY, MONEY! Yes, it is all about the MONEY, do you find yourself thinking this way? I HAVE ARRIVED; I AM HERE; I AM HAPPY; HAVE MADE IT, or so we are led to believe. Our culture is built on individual’s status of wealth, and this symbolism is everywhere. When did money become such a destination? When did we forgot our initial purpose of providing for our basic needs and start focusing on the status of ourselves compared to those around us?

There are no rules of right or wrong in how we approach life, everything is subjective, there are ideal propositions out there and outlooks that seem to produce more ideal results. Abraham Maslow’s phenomenal study on human motivation and personality is still one of the most popular theories in psychology and sociology today, where his hierarchy of human needs: Physiological, safety, love & belonging, esteem and self-actualization are exposed. When we are able to provide for the most basic, then we move on successfully to the next and are able to accomplish the next. Failure to succeed or achieve one level stunts growth in the next, says our competitive society.

In our world, we have the ideal process confused; When did money become so important? Are we starting to impose our mixed up views as ideal fact to the world? For example. FACT: Unless you have diamonds and a flashy lifestyle, you haven’t arrived? Or, Fact, unless you LOOK like you have made it, you haven’t made it?

I have made it and I have arrived, but WHERE I wonder? What is this destination that even when we are happily in love, have a place to live, at least a meal or two a day, people who love our company….somehow , we still live like we are not yet THERE? Where is this PLACE that seems to rob our world today of the sense of accomplishment, unless there is FLASH at the end? Thinking in terms of Maslow’s basic needs is where we refocus our energy and find there is no need to compare our self to others, but it is providing to our self the basic needs and finding joy in the love, happiness, and family in each step we take.

So, WHAT and WHERE is your DESTINATION? When you think of your personal “I have arrived…” be honest, what are you thinking of? When we are sitting on a goldmine, in terms of love, family, shelter, peace, and safety, with these basic needs met, we then can realize that I have Arrived, I am Here, I am Happy, and I have Made it. Our comparison to others is irrelevant and it is within us we find our path to enrichment.

SUNDAY REFLECTION

As we wake up in different parts of the US
it’s not our first thought that other parts of the
world have been hours ahead of us. In that
moment, we have our universe, our immediate
life, whether alone, with family, friends or at work.
For some people, another night on the cold streets

My message today for those still rising, wake up
with a spirit of thankfulness & thoughts of someone
else’s plight in your heart. We all have our worries,
our headaches, pain, & anguish, yet, we can still be
there for someone else, in spite of our own troubles

Make an effort today, to think of someone other than
yourself & how you can be a blessing. You can call,
visit, support emotionally or financially, or pray. In fact,
taking a moment to even think beyond your situation,
might be an accomplishment for someone today.
