Make an Impression

6/17/2013

I met a man the other day that left a positive impression with every person he met.  It was his SMILE and Infectious, Delighted Laughter and Sparkle in his eyes.  The room Brightened when he walked in.

He was Memorable.

When I spoke with him, he Resonated with Joy - EVERYTHING was delightful and exciting and fun.  His eyes spoke volumes and he was Very warm and caring.

The Questions is:  What Impression do I make on people?

It has been said that 'many people are already dead, and the funeral is just a formality'!  or that many people 'live lives of quiet desperation'!  or that many people are 'like zombies' or the 'living dead'!  I've heard that people are 'checked out', 'zoned out', 'burnt out', and 'used up'.

It's not just rumors.  I have met, and continue to see people who live day to day as if 'the world had ended', or that 'the weight of the entire world was on their shoulders', or in a 'permanent state of doom and gloom!'  All the Routine, Tradition, Appearances, Obedience to the 'Hive-Mind', Peer Pressure, and the Influence of the Media; CONTROLLING their EVERY THOUGHT, FEELING, ACTION!!!


As the Cartoon Illustrates, the difference between AVERAGE and MEMORABLE is ONLY a CHOICE.

To Live an EXCITING life, BE Exciting.

It is Very True that we tend to Experience whatever we are 'looking' for, whatever we are 'expecting'.  Our Brains deal with Billions of bits of information every second -- however we can only handle 2,000 bits per second -- this means that unless our Wonderful Brains FILTER out Billions of bits of information every second, we would Go Crazy and be on 'Overload' - just like little babies that are exposed to too much sound, light, color, movement at the same time -- too much stimulation and we tend to 'freeze' or 'freak out'!!

So...as a Safety Measure - our Brains ONLY show us the information to PROVE what we are looking for - what is Important to us.  So what you EXPECT to see in life is what your brain uses to decide what to show you.  Only information that leads you towards what you expect, the rest is thrown out.

Average or Memorable?

What do you want?  Then begin acting that way.  Begin thinking that way.  Begin feeling that way.  And it won't take too long before you will begin to see Results in your life that PROVE you right!!!

Thank You Jesus

Greatness is an ACTIVE Choice

The word 'Greatness' is an Action, a Lifestyle, a Personality, and Ultimately... a Choice.

Every Human Being will deal with Obstacles and Challenges and the Peer Pressure of Society.  What Makes them Different, What is the Source of there Results, is the Choices they make.

Think About it.

Some would rather turn on the TV and be entertained by someone else's life, someone who is living Their Dream.  Instead of coming home and Entertaining themselves by Living Their Own Dreams.  Some choose to Complain, to Criticize, to Condemn, to Gossip, to Nit-Pik, to Curse, to Kill the Dreams of Others, to Suck Away the Joy from those around them.  And when they look at the results, see that they are living a life that is NOT good - they are overweight, on medication, occasional alcoholics/drug users, abusive (mentally, physically), dissatisfied, depressed, and apathetic - they BLAME others, COMPLAIN More, and the ACTION they take is to Continue to Do More of the Same!!!!

Now, Take a Look at Everyone who has ever been considered GREAT.


They CHOOSE Greatness.  They CHOOSE Great Things.  They CHOOSE to DO Great Activities.

In every way - they ARE GREAT.

WHY?

They DECIDED that they wanted that kind of life.

Once they made the choice, there was No Going Back - and then they DAILY began to DO the actions that would lead them to a life of their dreams.

Compare the Differences:


Great People Bring JOY and High Energy INTO Every Situation (just a choice, by the way - anyone can do that), Great People SOLVE Problems, Praise Others, Encourage Others, Speak Highly of Others, Focus on the GOOD in Others and in Life, Bring the Dreams of Others to Life, and Choose to Use their WORDS with Respect and Care.

Great People Treat Others with Gentleness and Kindness, Great People Treat themselves with the same, Great People Exercise, Control what they Eat, Participate in Life, Work Towards the Purpose they have choosen, Give Back to the Community, Give Back to Others, Share Appreciation and Love, and Believe in the Power of their Vision.

Great People Look at the Results in their Lives and GET EXCITED !!!   Even the Parts that aren't Fantastic Yet, even those parts are Moving in the Right Direction and Soon Will be Awesome!!!

How is that Possible?

Because the Great Person DECIDED from NOW ON, that they would Accept NOTHING LESS.

And then they began to DO What it Takes to Make Changes and Make Progress.


I have Made My Decision.

Have You?

I'm Hooked on a Feeling ...

I like the quote on the left, because it reminds me that our 'Reality' can be very flexible, meaning that it can change radically with a few minor changes in thought.

Wow.  That's deep.  What do you mean?

What I mean is, that our life is really just a collection of thoughts, that we choose or someone else chooses for us.  And whenever our thoughts change on something, so does our life.  It's not hard to change our lives - because once the thoughts change - the feelings and actions and results IMMEDIATELY begin to change.

In fact there is almost no effort to it.  We simply have to maintain the new way of thinking until it becomes a habit, and Viola!  Poof! We just changed our lives!  Yeah!  Much Applause!  The crowd goes wild!!  Yes!

An Example:  Have you ever seen young people 'in love'?  I am talking about teens and pre-teens.  You know the ones I am talking about, they come to you and say, 'we've been dating a Looooonnnnngggg time - it's been almost 6 weeks!  The kind that can fall in and out of love with 15 people in a school year!  The one's who are ready to send out wedding invitations after 2 months and then absolutely 'hate' the person the next.  All it takes to develop that kind of love is for the other person to say 'nice' words that get them thinking...'he understands me' 'he Really loves me'  'I am the only one for him'  'he thinks I am pretty'  'they are the ONLY ones in the world who gets me, really gets me'  etc...

All it takes to stop loving them is a text/IM/email/Instagram/Facebook Status/Tweet that says the other person is 'single' or was seen talking to or nearby someone else - and just like that the 'spell' is broken.  So much for fairy tales.

Now for those of us who managed to 'survive' the roller coaster of emotions and graduate from teen 'angst' into adult life, we have developed a certain wisdom about things.  We understand that 'nice' doesn't always mean what they want us to think it means.  We discovered that we are easily manipulated by others when we are young because we have not yet decided how we want our lives to look.  So we fall for every thought that is thrown our way and the emotional rush that comes with them.  And since we hadn't yet learned to press the pause button before we speak or act, we end up doing things that cause more problems.

Thank God we can change our lives, by changing our thoughts.  My favorite author puts it this way 'be NOT conformed to this world, but be ye Transformed by the Renewing of your mind in Christ Jesus our Lord'.

Another piece of wise advice; 'Always Consider the Source', meaning don't just react to everything, think about it - who said it, how are you taking it, what have you decided that it means, and is that the best decision or could you decide it means something else that would be more beneficial?

Best of Life to you

Miss J
