Your Inner Core

Let's face it. Life is tough. We are tested every single minute. We are tested: at our jobs, when we drive, when we are with friends, when we are at home with loved ones, by our kids, by our lovers, by GOD, by everything.... The testing NEVER stops. It never will.

Coming to terms with life and its ever changing nature is hard. Sometimes you wonder if there's ever going to be an end to the unpredictable nature of life and whether you will ever get to relax and unwind. The answer is, "Probably not." But you can do something about it.

Yes, the answer lies in building a SOLID INNER CORE. Nothing, I mean nothing should be able to shake/alter your core beliefs and the true foundation on which you are built on. If you have a weak inside, you are bound to be lost in life. You will often follow than lead. You will often just make compromises in life, whatever they may be. Some will settle for women they don't like, some will settle for jobs they don't like, some will have absolutely no idea what they want! This is a scary prospect.

So to truly survive the tests of time, you need to consciously make efforts to change your inner core.

Your inner core should be designed every second, every minute of your day. You need to have a value based system that strengthens your values and your inner core every day. We all make mistakes, we all have things that cause setbacks, but at the end of the day, if you have your INNER GAME, you will be able to learn and move on. Sometimes, you may be shaken for weeks, or months depending on the impact, but you WILL move on.

I propose taking some time and thinking about what life means to you and what you want to do with it. Make a list of affirmations about yourself. Find flaws that you have that you should work on and put yourself in situations that test you on those flaws. YOU have to know how you are going to react when you are put in a situation that opens up your most inner flaws. You have to learn and be better.

I always speak by example. I teach based on examples. I DO NOT entertain anything else.

Here's what I think of life:
1. I want to have the most wonderful time in my life. I want to make each living day a gift to someone or something.
2. I want to love my families, friends and everyone around me. I care A LOT!
3. I am always looking for feedback, I love changing myself after careful consideration.
4. The world seems to gravitate around people with energy and purpose. That is a sign of a TRUE LEADER.
5. You have to PUT YOUR GAME ON. Every minute you don't you are losing someone/something.
6. Putting GAME ON is not something that should be unnatural....remember, it all starts unnaturally, but then it becomes a part of who you are. The day you change from Unconscious Incompetence to Unconscious Competence, your GAME will be ON.
7. Life is not rocket science.

Like Jim Rohn says,
Life is wonderful, "IF" you "STAY"
Life is wonderful, "IF" you "TRY"
Life is wonderful, "IF" you "CARE"
Life is wonderful, "IF" you "LIVE"

Today after a huge setback in my life, I feel normal again..... I feel like there's a reason for everything. I have had the pleasure of being loved by some of the most wonderful people, and I like that fact!

"There's too much hate in this world....so LOVE"

I want to write more and more AND I will......

Till tomorrow.....ciao!
