Tough decisions

Gut feel is a true gift god has given to us. Though not always true, it gives you assurance before you take action. Taking action, another initiative from human beings that God must be really proud of

I will never know what the future holds for me... If I will do well when I finally picked the path to walk upon or not, I will never know unless I choose it. The thing about gut feel is that you never learn about it.

As far as making decisions are concerned.. You learn to narrow down the options as you are faced with similar situations and you simply get better at making decisions over experience.

But for the hard to make decisions and even with difficult circumstances coming in to place, you need other motivations, be it financially, professionally or personally. However you need to know what makes you happiest and distinguishing it isn't easy as we are being presented with so many opportunities in life we become spoilt and greedy - selfish

I believe that it is in our nature to grow that way and in general we will never change. Just like us, made up from selfish genes.

But in all those selfishness and greed, what do we really look for? Internally, not externally... Why do I want to be a lawyer, banker or fitness instructor? I have learned to believe everyone has a motivation bigger than to earn alot of money. Money indeed can't buy happiness forever.

For me it is in finding happiness with everything and everyone I love and I believe although it may not be true all the time, my gut feel always try to lead me to where my heart wants to end up in; happiness.

About thinking too much and worry..

Do you usually plan so much ahead? I sometimes do but time and time again people would tell me that planning ahead is good but planning too far ahead isn't good..

The world has not and will not tell us tomorrow's news today or the day after and after.... So why do we think so much ahead sometimes..

All this planning ahead too much just leads to worry and I once read that most of the things that we worried did not happen.. Worrying is a misuse of imagination.

I have been victim on this, but and sad to say I blame myself, my ego, and self image and the society.

Carmen has been helping me alot on this by consoling and giving me reading materials but sometimes it just comes back and haunt me... I will have to fight this ghost in me and I'm doing it step by step

I've come across many people who have been giving me wise thoughts and I take these as insights to help me worry less and think better and perhaps this is gods way of teaching me the way of life.. You don't meet one good samaritan when you come to a crossroad, u meet them along the way, and you just need to believe sometimes.

Blessings in disguise

Have you heard of the butterfly effect? The theory explains that a simple change of an event may result in a dramatic change in the course of the entire event.

I guess this happens to us most of our lives but sometimes we just don't notice it.
This morning Carmen and I went to our condos management office to replace all our access cards. However due to the unpleasant experience which we have had previously we became rather disgruntled when we have to go and settle this matter.
As expected they did not honor their promise and I was not happy about it so to not make matter worse I decided to leave to the gym and not continue to argue with them.. As I was on my way out if the condo through the guard house, and one of the guards who have already been asking me a few weeks ago reminded me to go get my card done. And without hesitating I raised my voice and told him off.

Now the reality stops here.. But after a few moments I just imagined that although it did not happened or neither will I be able to know it, it may have a negative implications to a few other things.. Along the way.

The guard may have taken it personally and in turn made his day bad, but and maybe due to that he could have beaten his child or something.. I'm just saying but it is possible.

Negative energy passes on easily and if I could have just ended it on the spot and not passed it on perhaps in the end it would have been better and I truly believe that blessings do come in disguise

A blessing is not real, it is a perception of your own and you will only be able to feel the blessing as a result of a previous situation, and trust me blessing, it always start with positivity.

I've realized one thing that I have learned today and I will make a difference for myself!
