To set the mind-set of entering into this post I remind everyone of this subtle often over-looked and rarely-discussed fact of life i.e. none of us have ever been here before. Pause here. Compare this to a place or moment you have been in more than once. You become familiar, confident and life-educated in multiple, countless subjects and experiences all without the asking. Now let us proceed to see come what may
OUTCOME
This is the end result of some dynamic that was put forward. It is a result of an action taken fueled by a belief with under-lying want or need driving for the most part. It is a cousin to cause & effect generated by us & that is why I propose there are no accidents as we are doing or not doing while expecting none the less
LETS FIND OUT
The familiar paths and roads give us clear indication and signal of what will take place when we do or don't do something. There is no guesswork but instead a deliberate action launched for a known outcome. On the unfamiliar or never tried this before it remains to be seen if our expectation matches up with our actions
BLAME ROBS US
When something takes place not to our liking there are errors in people that are triggered one of which is blame. It is easy & tempting to accuse another of why things didn't go well for you. While doable blame doesn't allow for growth but instead stagnation. The ability to account (accountability) demands respect
EXCUSE MAKING
Another intruder alert here (excuses) tries to befriend and comfort us when things don't go exactly right (subjective). It first appears innocently enough and goes to work in the form of a "story" we tell our selves and then try to practice on others. The ability to respond (responsibility) is ignored. Why? Its their fault!
WHAT DO WE WANT?
If one just looks at the basics of life it is not complex to answer this question. Food, shelter, clothing, employment, companionship, toys and security all come to mind. No human is excluded in these things. Where it gets complicated is how we go about this and wanting more evidenced by willfulness & ambition
THE BASICS ARE IN REACH
Little or no effort is required to approach & then learn how to go about the having & accumulating of our quality of life. Starting from wherever you are with whatever you have automatically launches & registers you into the dynamics of having. Starting from the bottom is the best way because it can only get better (up)
THE UNKNOWN WANTS TO BE KNOWN
Having never been here before but having the hang of it as you grow up allows one to become comfortable a good and not so good arrival point. Satisfaction comes from arriving at the outcome but also brings this friend called "comfort zone" with it. Too much known produces lethargy in the form of living a repetitious life which quickly leads to boredom and indifference. How and why does it do this? Read on...
YOUR SKILLS BANK
By design your gifts, talents, skills & abilities are action-driven that when used helps to promote and deliver unto to us contentment, satisfaction and a sense of well-being. How? They perform as promised! What is the promise? Simply put that if you use what you have it will give a return. More use just refines it too
THE PAY-OFF
At some point (and it is a deliberate one) we end up where we wanted to go or expected to arrive keeping in mind that we have never traveled this way doing what we did before. Remember: Every moment is NEW & every step you take is a fresh one even if it is familiar. The why we did what we did arrives. What's that?
THE GOOD and the NOT SO GOOD
Ever made a foolish mistake? How about going about something anyway you can to justify the outcome? In other words getting or doing something at all costs may produce but with a catch. The courts, prisons and hospitals are full of people who have to reflect and assess how they got there. Second chance anyone?
THE END RESULT
For the less than stellar outcomes watch the denial aspect of the result. We got to where we are because of what we did or did not do. This is a non-negotiable universal law. Denial tends to reduce the truth of the matter. If we proceed properly we can learn from what worked or didn't & improve on it for future use
EXPERIMENTS & TESTS
When exploring the many different frontiers found in life, science, nature, mystery and adventures often we will not know an outcome predictably but that is what we are about to learn i.e. one of the outcomes of the issue. Wanting to know more may bring about further testing. Reaching beyond our grasp defines this well
BE A PIONEER
Explore life and question it as you go about your basics. Pondering and wondering when activated spices it up quite a bit. In every moment the moment itself is wanting to partner with you for a uniqueness of existence. Allow this. Having the heart and demeanor of a child helps this nicely as we mature
