    Entries in negativity (5)

    More Impact

    Mr. /Ms. Non-descript always listen and take to heart every word of the naysayers or unbelieving family members. There was this same kind of negative and unbelieving among Jesus’ family who didn’t believe in his ministry. The Son of God didn’t listen to them but kept performing miracles.

    All humans have a built-in propensity to fear. Our future depends on how we handle this area of our thinking. Giving in to these destructive feelings will limit the amount of our contribution to society.

    We can replace the negative with an optimistic attitude. This is the fertile environment in which new ideas grow. Many or most of the ideas we have are given to us by God. Even when we accidently come across an opportunity, the Divine constructed that incident.

    Successful people have an adventurous spirit and would jump on any idea to succeed. If we take these small non-threatening steps daily, we will have sufficient courage when the big opportunity presents itself. Taking the plunge into the future will directly affect the impact we have in our society. If we permit timidity to enter our thinking, we will join the ninety five percent called normal people.

    Let us be brave when God offers the next opportunity. Pray we will make a positive impact on humankind. Our entire life will then have been worthwhile.
