Lets start with your word. This can accomplish great feats, motivate people, create, destroy and cause movement that leads to action or inaction. Stop and ponder this. I meet people all-day who completely misuse and disrespect their own word that comes out of their mouth. I come from the point of view that I believe a person until I have a reason not to believe that person. The persons word controls that outcome
I DON'T GET IT
Here's another. What price do you put on credibility? Your word supports this action and if you misuse your word, you automatically lose credibility. These things are are beyond purchase and more important than money, power and fame. Often people have the words but no music. WHY? They lack credibility. In simple earthly parlance..."I don't get it" thoughts or statements hang thickly in the air
YOU EITHER DO...OR YOU DON'T...OR RATHER NOT SAY
How about trust? This can put brakes on anything if it is in doubt and stop all things dead if a lack of trust is discovered in play. If someone trusts you, a whole set of dynamics go into play different from if they don't trust you. This is definitely a game-changer and not to be taken lightly either
PLAY-FAIR SHOULDN'T HAVE TO SAID OR TOLD
Fair-play is another powerful dynamic. Even kids will call out NO FAIR when playing the simplest games if someone tries to shortcut or manipulate a simple move or action. It just doesn't sit well to let it go by without saying something. If happening, people note it and if not, they note that too
I DECLARE....?
How about a promise to perform? Why would you formally declare that something will happen and that you will be the one to make sure it does and then not do it? Yes, there are circumstances out there that will and can interfere with the process, but then you are saying that you can prevail when you promise something. If not, DON'T. Pause when putting this into action. Your whole being is at stake
YOUR FORGIVEN
Forgiveness is another powerful dynamic. We can release someone from their error whether planned as in "deliberate" or perhaps by their ignorance and error and when we do, we are the better for it even if it hurts right down to our bone. Then, there are those who when they receive this, make good use of it too
IF NOT NOW...WHEN?
Inaction is another that we don't pay much attention to. We were not put here to do nothing but to the contrary, everything that crosses our path summons our input and is an invitation to interact with. We are suppose to make a difference and you can jump in anytime, anywhere and for any reason as you see fit or why are you here? Ask and answer that to your own satisfaction and purpose
FINDING FAVOR WITHOUT EFFORT
Look what we take for granted. If these were for sale, who wouldn't purchase them knowing how valuable and necessary they are? But, they are not for sale! They are free and given even before the asking. Ponder this and when using these virtues correctly, gratitude for them is duly noted by the one who gives all good gifts
