Developing good habits are what we are told from youth. Good habits help you to create a healthy environment and a healthy life. So adapting goods habits of success is essential. 1.Visualize- the bible lets us know that we should first consider a matter before we take it on. ( im paraphrasing of course) So in line with the word we must see our end at the beginning of the task. We should know see where we are going so that we can move in the direction of our desired end. I do this on a yearly basis. I visualize where I will be by the end of the year and move in the direction of my desired goal. 2. Identify 20%- Maximize your greatest asset to your goal. I work well when I glean from doing the one thing I do best. The thing that does not take alot out of me but it accomplishes a great deal. ( that would be teaching for me) 3. Successful example- I learn this from watching my dad. He maximizes on teaching the word and writing books. Writing and teaching have been keys to his success. He has been writing since he started in ministry over 25 years ago and he is still reaping the benefits of some his old sermons and books that he wrote. 4. Treating others well is just right to do. What you reap you will sow! 5. If you do not believe in yourself it will be quite difficult for you to sell your ideas to anyone else. Your success starts with You!!!!!! 2.

He gave this to us even though He knew that we couldn't handle it. Why would He do that? Well one reason might be to grow from our decision making....our choices. Making a quality choice comes after some practice. You must learn to choose wisely and executed in a timely manner. Some things I am working on is choosing to do my best, choosing to allow others to choose to do their best, and choosing to have the right attitude about life.

I am excited because before we start to move foward, we have already discovered how to deal with our thoughts.(which we found affects our health and daily lives) From the previous post one of the detox methods came to mind as I read this one. That is detox number 7 Love tune in your heart. When you are tuned into your heart desires you can step with more confidence towards your future. One thing I am putting into pratice is to love myself because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. This means I was made with a purpose, a destiny to be discovered. I want to use this to propel me foward as we discuss how to move closer to our destiny and live our best lives. Moving towards one’s destiny should be a top priority.

I really didn't know how to relax. I am used to being busy, working, all the time. I would think that i needed money to do something relaxing. I have learned this is not so. A walk is inexpensive and therapeutic. Sitting down at the docks watching the boats come in is another activity that is relaxing. with my busy schedule these activities help alot and i do them as often as i can.

I have learn to do this through prayer, meditation, and sometimes counseling. I think what helps the most is having a safe environment. I just recently come to this place. I am now aware of my thoughts and keep track of how I think. I just don't dismiss what i feel i explore and redirect my energy in a positive direction. Today i woke up excited about what the day may bring forth. I refused to buy into the fear(false evidence appearing real) there is another level there is God's best for me. I will receive it all one step at a time. Patience will get me there. I look foward to reading this book myself as soon as it gets here. If I responded this way in my thought life already by just a short discussion.... I can only imagine the possible glorious outcomes once I have internalized all the information.

These three thoughts suprisingly were hallmarks in my psychological development. I am sure that it was done unknowingly nevertheless these thoughts were promoted to a great degree. Now that I am an adult I have began to realize my unrealistic expectations. With much assistance my brain will be switched back on. I am looking forward to reading it.

]]> Comment on Entrepreneurs, There is Great Folly in Rewarding A, While Hoping For B by coestricher http://www.lifeuphigh.com/2009/05/13/entrepreneurs-there-is-great-folly-in-rewarding-a-while-hoping-for-b/comment-page-1/#comment-45 coestricher Sun, 17 May 2009 01:24:11 +0000 http://www.lifeuphigh.com/?p=444#comment-45 This helps me to explain what is going on at my office. I am an educator for young people 16-21. Often I am baffled by the expectations of the principals and chancellor. They will say they want to reward all efforts even grade to grade improvements. This means that students that enter my classroom with a 5th grade reading level, and after 3 months of class time reads on a 7th grade level, this is considered rewardable. However, the testing for these improvements do not take place in a timely manner. The investment in class time for these individual students are not supported, mostly due to their lack of attendance, class pace, and overcrowed rooms. Instead they pay more attention to how many GED are achieved. They tell the teachers we want to focus on these small improvements we are here to support you in anyway. This never happens. We only hear good job, when we produce GEDs and/or how many people we can pile into a classroom. Quality of education is sacrificed for the dollar amount they get for how many students we can fit into a classroom. However, when there that many students in a classroom only the top students really get the help they need. The low functioning students, those who may only get one grade improvement are neglected inadvertanly. I try to combat this by offering tutoring after class and this does help some students but sadly not all. I will continue to do my best to close this gap the best way I can by reaching out to these students. This helps me to explain what is going on at my office.
