Wake up & think positive
![]() ` You remain as you are in life and things remain the same unless you are given more or you can multiply what you already have." NosaJ The first thought that probably comes to mind when you think about multiplying is about having children. In biblical terms it is one of our purposes to go forth and multiply but that is not the multiplication that I had in mind. There is also the Jesus multiplication, which has to do with the multiplication of bread for the people. That was a miracle. The multiplication that springs from my mind is closer to that type of multiplication but is called personal multiplication. It is a simple or a mathematical equation and not a miracle. People become rich because they know how to multiply the money that they have. The rich get richer not just because they have money,know how to save or spend wisely but also because they know how to multiply their wealth. A book becomes a book compliments of the multiplication of thought and of words and pages. Whether or not it becomes a best seller of course depends on the contents, the packaging and the marketing as well as the multiplication of tenacity and determination. if writing is one of your passions or gifts. you could probably do better than others with such multiplication and the multiplication of effort. Of all things, you should multiply your love more than anything else. You should multiply your love for yourself, for others and for the things that you do, and the places that you find yourself. The more that you multiply your love, the stronger it becomes and the stronger you become. There is no greater or more powerful force field in the universe than love. God is love. The Universe is love and if you are a part of that love, you protect yourself from a lot of things. A strong heart is never subject to becoming a broken heart because it has plenty of love, understands the true nature of unconditional love and loving for the sake of love. Multiply your positivism and you create a fortress against negativity. Multiply your positive state of mind and you fortify yourself for the battle field that is a part of life. Even on the battle field and while doing battle with yourself, with life and or others, your mind still sees plenty of beauty to life, finds peace quickly andor always lifts your spirit in a hurry. Life is a mathematical equation or like some mathematical equations. You can add to who you are or you can subtract from who you are. Life is such and people are such and places are such, that some days they will subtract from your positive essence or what you do. Some days are such that due to distractions, your multiplication will not go according to plan, but so what. Tomorrow is another day and so you multiply even more to make up for the subtraction and or distractions. You can allow others to help you become a better you by their own multiplication or you can allow them to subtract from who you are by drawing you into a pool of negativity. You reap what you sow, you get what you give and what goes around, comes around. You can also call iy Karma if you like. The good deeds that you do will multiply the greatness of someone else but the multiplication will also come around. Negativity will bounce off you when it comes around, if you have multiplied enough positivity and if you have not been multiplying negativity. wake up and multiply all that is good about you and all that can make an even better version of you or the you, that you want to meet in the future.

![]() ` When I wake up earlier than usual in the morning and accomplish a few things, I feel worthy. When I set goals for the day and accomplish them, at the end of the day,I feel worthy of time." NosaJ Life is such that it presents us with so much to do that we are in a constant state of doing, a constant state of being and if you are fortunate, of feeling alive. There is so much to do, that such a state of doing and or being can also lead to exhaustion. That is where priority and balance come into play and that is why divine creation added rest, recreation and sleep into our human agenda. The truth is that none of us are in absolute control of our lives but we must also not let life or situations take control of us. We have free will and we do have some control, especially how we feel about ourselves but we do not have control over everything or some things like the traffic or how other people feel or what they do. Others can make you feel worth or unworthy, if you allow them to, but the true power of worthiness lies with you. Only you can truly make yourself feel worthy or unworthy about anything. You might be genuinely late for work because of the traffic and your boss can try and make you feel unworthy of your job and responsibilities, but only if you allow it. If you allow yourself to feel inferior or guilty for something that was not your fault, you will feel unworthy. Now, if you are always and intentionally late, that might be another story. If your mind is such that it guides you to do the right things or your intentions are good and pure, there should be no reason to feel guilty or unworthy of self, any position that you hold in life or the deeds that may be associated with the variety of such positions that life has assigned to you. By variety of positions, that means the capacities that you hold in life, such as son, daughter, parent, friend, lover, spouse, student, teacher, employee, employer and other capacities. Now that I think about it, there is one word that comes to mind regarding all capacities or positions and that is respect. In order to be worthy of anything, there has to be some respect involved. In order to be worthy of anyone, there has to be some respect for that person and some respect in return. In order to be worthy of doing anything that you do and to get the right results there has to be some respect for what you do. Respect is a matter of fact and also a matter of perspective but if you are mindful about being respectful of others, of what you do and how you do it, you will find yourself at the very least worthy of good results. Respect yourself and others and you will find that you are worthy of some respect yourself. Another thought that comes to mind regarding being worthy is success. Are you worthy of success? One reason that some brilliant things or projects do not get started or completed sometimes is not because the project is not worthy but because you might not feel worthy of the project. One of failures best friends is called ` I can't do it' and another is called `impossible'. If Jeff Bezos had thought himself unworthy of creating Amazon or thought of it as impossible, there would be no Amazon today or Amazon would exist by another name created by someone else who thought it possible and of themselves as worthy of creating it. The worthy of success principle also applies to your relationships. You are as worthy as you think you are or as you allow others to make you think you are. Others may be entitled to judge you according to their relationship with you but you have to decide what you are worth. Your children may be the only ones entitled or truly capable to judge you as a parent but you have to decide what you are worth. Your spouse may be the only one entitled to judge you as husband or wife but you have to decide whether or not, you are worthy. A friend can judge your friendship but only you can decide for yourself whether or not you are worthy of any friendship. Your employee may slap you with as many performance appraisals as they like but at the end of the day only you can truly decide what you are worth. You should know what you are worth and you are worth something. What you decide you are worth, will determine how you feel about yourself and affect your actions for better or for worst. Wake up and feel worthy about yourself. It will make you feel positive about yourself. It will make you feel positive about the day and you will be surprised how much you can accomplish in that state of mind. ![]() We tend to take words for granted, like we do many other things but there is great power to words. They are powerful and magical and you have to sometimes remember that magic itself is composed of powerful words. These words and thoughts flow through the universe of our minds in different directions seeking a place to harbor themselves. They come and they go of their own accord but the more some are acknowledged,invited, welcome and hosted, the stronger they become a part of us. They become magical. Life is such that you will be labeled along the way by others, by society and or by life. You will be labeled with words by many in your different capacities and at different junctions in your life. because you exist in different capacities, there will be many labels being attached to you. Some will stick to you all the way through life and some will be peeled off. It depends on the strength of the label, who you are allowing to label you and the power that you give to the magic of such labels. The most important labels will always be the ones of your own making and the ones that you stamp on your mind. They need to be sacred and positive to create your own magic, identify you and guide you towards designing the rest of your life in a constructive manner and or redesigning any negative labels that others or life has already stamped upon you. You cannot change what has been done but you can take control of what is and make it better. You cannot shape the past but you can shape the future and the shape of the future, of your future takes the shape of your mind, rather than any other. The company that you keep is important, for they will know you the most and they will label you the most. In that respect it is important to keep the company that sees the best in you and always wishes the best for you. They are a part of your positive magic to enhance you. They know your strengths and they know your weaknesses but will always have positive labels for you and seek to improve those labels with you or for you. The negative company will place labels of doubt and advertise you in a negative light to others and to the world. The thoughts that you keep in your mind are the closest company that you keep and that makes them even more important than the physical company that you keep. The thoughts that you have of others shape your feelings about them and most importantly the thoughts that you have of self will affect how and who you are, how and who you become. Extraordinary is a word that is synonymous to phenomenal. They are both powerful words and thoughts. They both have a certain magic to them that you have to identify with and can absorb into your mind and your very being. They can become a part of you and a part of almost everything that you do so that everything that you do or how you approach life becomes great and wonderful. Think of these words as your own label or a simple magical formula and a positive transformation takes place. You can also choose other magical words that create more positivity for you or will serve you well as your own labels. Think of being remarkable, exceptional, amazing, astonishing, sensational, incredible, unbelievable, magnificent, wonderful, out of the ordinary, fantastic or awesome. You can be as ordinary or as extraordinary as you want. You can be an extra ordinary student or exemplary teacher. You can be a phenomenal writer. You can be a wonderful friend. You can be an exceptional partner, if you want to be. You can be an awesome parent if you want to be. You can be a remarkable worker, employee or business person if you want to be. I do not know about you but I do want to know that feeling. In order to know that feeling, I have to think it and allow the magic of those words and thoughts to flow through me. It is a state of mind that becomes a state of being. Jason.U @ MondayMorningPositivity ![]() All is well that ends well but it ends even better, if there were no hiccups along the way to begin with. It ends even better, if along the way or for each step along the way, the task at hand is approached with calm confidence and rewards you with peace of mind and fulfillment before you get to the point of completion. Life does not always go according to plan. The things that we plan in our mind or on paper do not always go according to plan but we can always make a better job of making sure that they do. Any first attempt at anything can be excused if everything does not go according to plan but if the same mistakes keep on occurring, there is something wrong with that picture. There is something wrong with not learning from the mistakes that were made. There are some things that you can take care of immediately but do not due to a lack of organization or forgetfulness and they come back to haunt you or can cost you more mentally, physically or financially than they should have due to the lack of organization. A good example of financial disorganization is like having the money to pay a bill but forgetting about it or procrastinating about it and then you get hit with a late fee, due to a lack of an organized mind or life. There are some things that we are solely responsible for and can lay blame nowhere else, should things not go according to plan and there are some things that we have to do with others as a joint venture or as a team and it is easier to lay blame or point fingers. In either case neither frustration nor negativity will better help you accomplish your goals. A clear focused mind and positivity will serve you much better. I was recently engaged in the organization of a 50th wedding anniversary event and it reflected the need for the positive and the need for organization to get things accomplished. The event went reasonably well and the celebrants were a happy couple at the end of the day, but they did not get to see any of the chaos that occurred due to some lack of organization and communication. In the midst of the chaos, I found myself being drawn towards negative energy and being engaged with negative frames of minds but the positive nature of the event and other positive minds cleared the mist and redirected my energy to a more successful outcome. When it comes to any joint venture, communication is vital to organization. When it comes to team work, you have to know the strengths and weaknesses of others as well as those you can rely on and those who you cannot rely on. You have to know the positive and the negative nature of others that belong to your team and how they can affect organization in a positive or negative manner. When it comes to a group event and you have to pay for some services, make sure that they are well organized and that you are getting the right person for the job by virtue of character, reputation and or firsthand knowledge of their services. If you are providing any services whether personal or professional, make certain that you are well organized. Desperation is the mother of invention and leads to compromises or sacrifices. Organization is the mother of and the key to success. Without some system of organization to any given task, any given day or towards your life, success keeps on walking further away from you. Wake up and get organized and you will feel more positive about yourself and life. Get organized and you will find yourself accomplishing much more than if you were in a constant state of disorganization. Accomplish your goals with the help of some organization and you will also find fulfillment. ![]() Life itself is not a destination but a journey. The journey is what makes you who you are, not the destination. Like any journey though, there can be many stops or intervals along the way. There can be many sights to see and some detours or even distractions along the way, to the place or places that you really want to visit as a part of your life journey. There are some places that we visit or some things that happen to us along the way that were not a part of the game plan but we have to make a part of the game plan. On the other hand there are some places that we find ourselves or some things that we made happen but know are not what we want but we stay or hold on to out of necessity, comfort or obligation. I find it ironical that some of us educate ourselves reasonably well by any standard as education goes and we spend a lot of money to do so, but at the end of the day, the qualifications associated with the education are not used for the purpose that it was intended. The necessity to earn a living changes the game plan or creates a professional detour and or makes profession becomes just a job. The distinction leads to dissatisfaction and a diminished self. I have seen students attend colleges and private institutions with a dream in mind or the presentation of a dream to them and I have seen them spend thousands of dollars on student loans to get in the educational door that has their dream written on it but somewhere along the way they drop out. They walk out the door, start over again or change direction and spend more money on an illusion rather than a dream. This might be due to lack of preparation, distractions or false hope. To have a dream is a wonderful thing but it has to have some substance of possibility and reality attached to it. Hope is also a wonderful thing also because it gives you something to look forward to but it also has to have a high degree of possibility attached to it and be associated with a vision that can someday be realized. If that is not the case, such hope is fruitless. It is also better to create your own hope and your own tracks, rather than allow others to do so for you. I admire those with hopes or dreams and the tenacity to follow them through to the end. I admire those who pursue education with purpose or in spite of all the challenges that they face, stay the course. That is commitment for you. I admire determination and persistence, for they keep you on track and ultimately lead you to success. There is a common story or trend to most of us and that trend may fall under the umbrella of human nature. Our stories are similar but have different settings to them and ultimately different outcomes. Your story and your outcome depends on what you do and how you do it. It depends on your actions and your reactions. It is human nature to start and stop a lot of things but what if something that you started is the key to the door that you must open. What if something that you started was meant to touch many lives in a positive way? What if something that you started resonates with who you really are or is what you were meant to do? What if something that you started is the direction that you are truly meant to take to find you and to find fulfillment? What if something you started was meant to be your legacy to the world? If you start and stop something that is meant to take you in a particularly good direction, you will never find out the true significance of that journey. We all make mistakes on our journey but if we can make decisions that beneficially outweigh those mistakes that we have made, such mistakes become irrelevant. If we cannot make decisions or journey in a direction that overrides prior mistakes, those mistakes will remain very expensive mistakes. Wake up and get back on track in the direction that you must follow rather than the ones you have to follow out of necessity or fear the unknown. being on the right track will always make you feel positive and provide you with a great sense of fulfillment. It will give hope, its true meaning. Have some faith in yourself and the unknown territory that lies ahead, waiting for you to arrive and to explore. Jason. U @ MondayMorningPositivity |
