Master Your Emotions or Be Mastered By Them

Hi there!

I hope you and yours are well! We can’t go through life without experiences. But within us is the power to choose how we process data from these experiences. Emotions and feelings are data, and we decide how we want to handle the data. Every occasion is an opportunity to strengthen yourself emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually. Your thoughts affect the physical wiring of your body. 

Remember that you are in control. You are the master of yourself. You can change your thoughts, environment, and health by how you process data. 

You can remember that:

  1. No experiences define you.
  2. Life is working for your good.
  3. Every experience builds on the next one. There is always something to learn about yourself and apply to another experience.
  4. Just because someone else experienced it, it doesn’t mean you have to. Instead, you can choose to break the cycle of unhealthy thoughts and behaviors.

In today’s Create A Generational Love Cycle episode, I share my insights on how we can be better data processors.

What Makes You Different from the People Who Projected Their Pain on You?

Hi there!

Life presents us with different situations to express our true selves. We must be careful in not harboring ill will towards another or remembering past behaviors for the wrong done. Instead, we unclothe our experiences and take what resonates with the truth inside ourselves. Just because someone acted a certain way is never an excuse to repeat the behavior. And minor renditions of conduct are the same behavior.

We cannot fully express ourselves if we are holding unto the past. Every thought seed grows inside of us through our cultivation of it. Let go of the past by giving the projected pain back to the person. Remember how you felt and choose to help others avoid such experiences.

As a parent, we cannot fully be available to our children if we harbor the actions and inactions of others. I believe as parents, we give our children what we didn’t have and more. We start from the inside, helping them see that experiences don’t define them and that they have what they need to put experiences in a healthy perspective.

Instead of saying I am not as bad as the other person, consider replacing the phrase with I choose to align with the truth in me. Your spirit knows even if you are unsure of what this truth is.

In today’s Create A Generational Love Cycle episode, I discuss another essential principle to creating a legacy from the inside out. As always, let me know your thoughts.

Are Experiences Meant to Make You Better or Bitter?

Hi there!

I hope all is well with you and yours, and you are getting some much-needed rest! 

Self-reflection is critical to the evolution of the human species. Whatever you believe may be passed on to future generations, and as you know, our actions have a direct and indirect effect on others. So, I do have some self-reflection questions for you. 

  1. What do you believe is the purpose of experiences? 
  2. Do experiences help to bring out the truth within you? If so, what truths are you accepting or refusing?
  3. Are your experiences shaped your thoughts? If not, then what are your experiences shaped by? If so, what are your experiences teaching you about your thoughts?
  4. Do experiences help to express the virtues within you, or are experiences out to get you? If so, what virtues (compassion, love, grace, mercy, and the like) do you need to express now?
  5. Is life supposed to be a struggle? Why or why not?
  6. How can I change my thoughts to be more life-sustaining to fulfill my purpose and enjoy the fruits of my work?

Whatever you believe about life often comes to fruition in some form. And, whatever you believe, you share with others through your actions (including inactions) and words. The generational pain cycle (disease, violence, low self-esteem, and the like) didn’t start on its own. But, within us is the power to change the thoughts that created pain. 

Whether fear or love, darkness or light, it first occurs within and then without.

In today’s podcast, Create a Generational Love Cycle, I share my thoughts on experiences, including a potentially traumatic childhood experience.

Make this lifetime great because you can!
