“We need to realize that environment should never be allowed to make the person, but that we should always, and always can, condition the environment” Ralph Waldo Trine
Good morning all… Whatever issues we are facing,, changing them requires a shift in the way we think about ourselves, our world and our experiences. Many times we think that making changes in the outer world, such as moving to a new place, or a different job or relationship is going to result in an inner change. That’s not how it all works. That kind of thinking suggests that you are powerless to change things unless you make an outer change when first we must make the change in our mind…. And then change shows up in our experience.
Expecting something new to occur by changing our outer world without changing the inner world, means we will experience the same pain or challenges despite the outer change.
Continue your work in mind… you condition the environment and don’t fall asleep to the “little fucker” that says “the world runs you, you are a victim of circumstance.”
We know that’s not true and that is waking up. It takes a force of will to wake up and control circumstance and I know all of you well enough to know… you all have the power to create what you truly desire. The Buddha said, “when you want what you want like you want your next breath, it will come.”
Take note that all you have created resulted from your mind first… your thinking. When it didn’t work it wasn’t the outside not working, it was the outside showing you the result of your innermost thinking.
The good news? You can change it in an instant.
Now go do it the best you can with all the gifts you have with all your might everywhere you go.
Leave everyone and everything a little better than you find them along the way.
See what happens in the outer when you become the Master of Circumstance.
Remember … “Life is Best Lived from the Inside Out.”
Thank, Steve 😊
