To grow spiritually in a world defined by power, money, and influence is a Herculean task. Modern conveniences such as electronic equipments, gadgets, and tools as well as entertainment through television, magazines, and the web have predisposed us to confine our attention mostly to physical needs and wants. As a result, our concepts of self-worth and self-meaning are muddled. How can we strike a balance between the material and spiritual aspects of our lives?

To grow spiritually is to look inward.

Introspection goes beyond recalling the things that happened in a day, week, or month. You need to look closely and reflect on your thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and motivations. Periodically examining your experiences, the decisions you make, the relationships you have, and the things you engage in provide useful insights on your life goals, on the good traits you must sustain and the bad traits you have to discard. Moreover, it gives you clues on how to act, react, and conduct yourself in the midst of any situation. Like any skill, introspection can be learned; all it takes is the courage and willingness to seek the truths that lie within you. Here are some pointers when you introspect: be objective, be forgiving of yourself, and focus on your areas for improvement.

To grow spiritually is to develop your potentials.

Religion and science have differing views on matters of the human spirit. Religion views people as spiritual beings temporarily living on Earth, while science views the spirit as just one dimension of an individual. Mastery of the self is a recurring theme in both Christian (Western) and Islamic (Eastern) teachings. The needs of the body are recognized but placed under the needs of the spirit. Beliefs, values, morality, rules, experiences, and good works provide the blueprint to ensure the growth of the spiritual being. In Psychology, realizing one’s full potential is to self-actualize. Maslow identified several human needs: physiological, security, belongingness, esteem, cognitive, aesthetic, self-actualization, and self-transcendence. James earlier categorized these needs into three: material, emotional, and spiritual. When you have satisfied the basic physiological and emotional needs, spiritual or existential needs come next. Achieving each need leads to the total development of the individual. Perhaps the difference between these two religions and psychology is the end of self-development: Christianity and Islam see that self-development is a means toward serving God, while psychology view that self-development is an end by itself.

To grow spiritually is to search for meaning.

Religions that believe in the existence of God such as Christianism, Judaism, and Islam suppose that the purpose of the human life is to serve the Creator of all things. Several theories in psychology propose that we ultimately give meaning to our lives. Whether we believe that life’s meaning is pre-determined or self-directed, to grow in spirit is to realize that we do not merely exist. We do not know the meaning of our lives at birth; but we gain knowledge and wisdom from our interactions with people and from our actions and reactions to the situations we are in. As we discover this meaning, there are certain beliefs and values that we reject and affirm. Our lives have purpose. This purpose puts all our physical, emotional, and intellectual potentials into use; sustains us during trying times; and gives us something to look forward to—a goal to achieve, a destination to reach. A person without purpose or meaning is like a drifting ship at sea.

To grow spiritually is to recognize interconnections.

Religions stress the concept of our relatedness to all creation, live and inanimate. Thus we call other people “brothers and sisters” even if there are no direct blood relations. Moreover, deity-centered religions such as Christianity and Islam speak of the relationship between humans and a higher being. On the other hand, science expounds on our link to other living things through the evolution theory. This relatedness is clearly seen in the concept of ecology, the interaction between living and non-living things. In psychology, connectedness is a characteristic of self-transcendence, the highest human need according to Maslow. Recognizing your connection to all things makes you more humble and respectful of people, animals, plants, and things in nature. It makes you appreciate everything around you. It moves you to go beyond your comfort zone and reach out to other people, and become stewards of all other things around you.

Growth is a process thus to grow in spirit is a day-to-day encounter. We win some, we lose some, but the important thing is that we learn, and from this knowledge, further spiritual growth is made possible.

If you are trying to figure out what is causing all of the stress in your body, you may want to do some research. This is something that you can do on your own to find a way to pin point the problems and to get started with the treatments of them. You should sit down and think about the problems that you are having in your life and what you can do to change the situation.

Make a well thought out list of all the problems that you are facing in your life. Think about these problems and what you are worried about. When you are thinking about what is disrupting your life, you may find the answers to the questions of what is causing all of your problems and your stress.

Think of all the people that are adding to your stress. This will include all relationships both at home and at work. Figure out what the problems are with these people and if you need to have them in your life or if they are someone that you should distance yourself from. There is nothing wrong with ending a relationship that is in turmoil. You should be prepared to do this if it is relevant to your health and well-being.

Think of things that you can do to improve your lifestyle. If you are eating the right things, taking the time to exercise and get the proper nutrients for your body. Are you talking about your feelings with others? Do you need to find a different career path? These are examples that you need to think about when you are trying to define your life and what is causing you the most problems with stress

Do not forget about the humor and entertainment in your life. You have to include these things into your life so that you are taking a break from the stress that can build up. You should jot down the things that you like to do and what makes you happy. Make sure that you are applying these things to your life so that you can become a better and well-rounded person.

Make sure that you are going over your lists on a regular basis. Make the necessary changes where they are needed and take the time to enjoy things. You need to stop and smell the roses once in a while to maintain a healthy outlook on life. You will find that once you apply this list, you will watch your stress disappear for good.

The secret I’m going to share with you will help make 2010 bigger and more successful than you’ve ever imagined. This one thing is the key element that has created more success than anything ever discovered. Before I share this powerful “missing piece,” it’s necessary to explain a couple of things.
What would you like to be or achieve? No matter what you declare to be your objective, as soon as you identify what you want, it’s normal to automatically justify obstacles in the way to getting it.
You may say, I want more money, but I don’t know what to do to make it happen. Or, you may state, “I want to start living my life differently but….” The list of obstacles, limitations, and excuses in the way to a bigger life, can go on forever. The truth is that reasons why something isn’t possible are always greater than what’s possible for you to overcome in your current level of existence. The only way to overcome the barriers in life is to become double eye-sighted.
Double eye-sightedness is a phrase I coined meaning, “Keeping one eye (the weaker eye) on what’s in the way, and keeping the other eye (the stronger eye) on what you want.”
When we recognize the barriers in life but stay focused on our desired results, something happens. The barriers diminish or change while our desired results become more of a reality.
I realize this process is easier said than done and to make it a feasible means to success, you need something of great power—courage. Successful people may lack many things. A successful person may have started with nothing—no money, intelligence, experience, or opportunity. But, the one thing every successful person does possess is courage. Not the courage to go onward toward their dreams, but the courage to do whatever they could with what they had to work with at that time.
Most people know what they would like their lives to be, or what results they would like to achieve. They just don’t know how to make it happen. The key to achieving any level of success or greatness is to have the courage to do any actions steps you can, at this time, with what you have to work with, and that’s it.
As you complete the little things you can do right now, your life will change and so will your barriers and resources. Your barriers may diminish or change to something completely new. The new barriers will require you to continue with the process of immediately doing whatever you can, with what you have to work with once again. Repeating this cycle will move you closer and closer to your desired outcome.
Success doesn’t come in one big chunk. It’s a process of multiple little things that build up to a big result. The only way people can get to their big results is by having the courage to face the little things at hand, get them out of the way, and do this process over and over again until a realization occurs of their worthy result.
The key word is “Courage.” Almost everyone has some dream, but very few will ever bring their dreams to fruition. Once again, it’s not because they lack the resources. Lack comes from not having the courage to get done whatever you can with what you have to work with at that moment.
Look at the successful people throughout time. Almost every single one of them faced insurmountable odds and obstacles. Failure was prevalent throughout the process to their victory. These people simply did whatever they could each day, with what they had to work with, and eventually experienced victory.
Success in anything is a victory over your self-imposed limitations.
When you quickly exhaust all your current action steps, you will find new opportunities open for you and new action steps to follow. Quickly clear these new steps and the ones to follow. As you proceed with this process, you will find your dream life unfolding step-by-step.
I’ve taken many people on the journey from despair and lack to a life of prosperity. The first element I have all my students address is to confront (face) life fully and develop the attitude of “Do It Now.” Do what you may ask? Complete whatever you can identify as the most basic steps toward your dream life.
If there is a habit you have that’s getting in the way to your dreams, eliminate it. If there are simple chores or tasks that are lingering in your life, clear them out. If you can only complete one or two tasks toward your desired results, get those done immediately.
As you complete the things you can, at this time, with what you have to work with, you’ll have new possibilities be granted upon you. The new possibilities will never come to you until you clear all the “little things” that you can at this time.
I know this year is coming to a close and most people are repeating their same Mental Codes®. You probably are finding this year’s closing is similar to those in the past. You have good intentions for the New Year, but if you don’t grasp what I’m sharing with you, the cycle will continue.
Courage is the secret to success. If you have limitations or fear of any sort, use your courage to control them and excel beyond your current ability. The only way a person grows to a bigger life is by having the courage to make it happen.
Intelligence can actually be detrimental to success. An intelligent person can give you logical reasons why something isn’t possible. Using logic can actually make a person not confront what they need to do. An intelligent person may say, “As soon as…I’m going to do this.” This approach will always keep a person waiting because perfect opportunities aren’t delivered on your doorstep; they’re created by courageously facing the little things and getting them done quickly. This “clearing process” creates a bigger you in a systematic process that always produces more success.
I encourage you to courageously look at your life. What do you want? What little things can you do right now? Are you willing to courageously confront them and get them completed? Are you willing to once and for all give 100% to your desired results and stop concentrating on why something isn’t possible?
As you complete the little steps, greater possibilities will come to you. As you experience more and more, you will create an unbelievable life. Not only will others not believe what you’ve accomplished, you’ll be so amazed with the results, you won’t believe it yourself.

WE are here to help!

I don’t know about you but 2009 went by fast as heck for me. I sometimes reflect and wonder if I did the best I could have done this year.

No one can tell you what the heck to do.

The thing I figured out is that in life WE ALL get pulled buy some thought/force/feeling that causes us emotions and makes us react a certain way

If your looking to make changes now is a great time, dont wait any longer to say your going to…quit smoking, lose weight, make more money, find the right person, start a business, go to school, work on your relationship, and the list goes on and on!

Secretly you know what it is you need to do…

Baby steps…but there is no better time than NOW!

As we wind down 2009 I want you to start reflecting on using gratitude to position you for 2010.

1. BE THANKFUL-

Be very very greatful, this area is sometimes so easily missed because of our day to day routine. Don’t get it twisted, this is key. Even if things seem super dismal, there is a seed of hope. The problem is sometimes we dont want to hear this ish because we are so busy being worried with the issue or problem, which makes us say F IT.
I can’t tell you what the silver lining is but there is usually one.

There was a time you had a smile on your face, start with what that felt like and blow it up emotionally. (Charge it Up)

2. Get on L.S.D.

LOVE SERVICE AND DEDCATION

Love says it all, love for yourself and others.

Service to others and helping others and sometimes putting others first.

Dedication to follow through and be disciplined to do what you say and say what you do.
Not only when its convienient.

Joe Schroeder put me on to LSD and I’m hooked.

3. Have Fun-

Things don’t have to be so rigid, let loose be you and just chill. You can still have fun and become aware of self. You gotta DANCE and be free! Let LOOSE! LAUGH!
Let the KID inside of you BE!

I challenge you to make moves and do something no matter what it is.
