It takes courage to take control and to act on what we believe. The action of courage does not mean that there is not fear. It means one has the power to get past the negative imaginings of the fear of what may happen in the future. Instead, courage is a belief which creates faith about what is possible.

Where do you find your power over fear? You find your power in your ability to control what you think. You can choose to focus on all the negative imaginings and things that are beyond your control – all the things you do not want to happen, all your fears. OR you can choose to focus on what you can control.

If you need help to find your way out of a troubling situation, check out my website at www.TheMindMatters.com. Access the power of your subconscious mind. Take control.

"There are occasions when you can hear the mysterious language of the Earth, in water, or coming through the trees, emanating from the mosses, seeping through the under currents of the soil, but you have to be willing to wait and receive."

“In this treacherous world
Nothing is the truth nor a lie.
Everything depends on the color
Of the crystal through which one sees it.”

When you’re doing something new and unfamiliar, you may be frightened until you know what to expect. If you want to feel more in control, check your attitude.

Your attitude is the control center of your life. And your attitude is based on your thoughts and beliefs.

Your attitude about yourself and your abilities affects your expectations. Your attitude is your belief in yourself and is a reflection of your self-confidence. Your behavior is a reflection of your attitude.

Your attitude is the way your think or feel about something. It is your view; the way you approach life. It is your personal perspective of the way things are…your story.

Just a shift in thinking will make a difference about how you feel. It will also make a difference in how you act and how you react. In that moment, you actively take part in the creation of your life. You take control of the situation. You create the story. And your attitude creates the happy ending!

Maybe you need an attitude adjustment. Or maybe you need help to build a bridge between what you want and how to achieve it. Check out my website at www.TheMindMatters.com and follow me for tips on maintaining a positive attitude.

"The goal of life is to make your heartbeat match the beat of the universe, to match your nature with Nature."

A thought is like a tree. Every thought, word or feeling carries a vibration. Your thoughts right now determine what your future will be like; what your legacy will be.

When you start a new job or a new relationship, your thoughts influence how it will grow and how strong it will be. When you raise a child, your thoughts and beliefs determine your child’s future.

Your thoughts create the foundation or the root system that you build your life upon. That root system also supports your children and your children’s children. Your thoughts and beliefs influence the future and a world you will not know.

Your thoughts are like little seedlings. You have the ability to plant many seeds of joy throughout your lifetime. You can nurture those joyful thoughts and influence all those who know you. You can create peace and serenity within and radiate the quiet wisdom of an ancient tree.

Celebrating the Ancestors...the ones who have passed on to the next stage of life...death.⁠
⁠
“Before we were born we had no feeling; we were one with the universe. This is called "mind-only," or "essence of mind," or "big mind," ⁠
⁠
After we are separated by birth from this oneness, as the water falling from the waterfall is separated by the wind and rocks, then we have feeling. You have difficulty because you have feeling. You attach to the feeling you have without knowing just how this kind of feeling is created. ⁠
⁠
When you do not realize that you are one with the river, or one with the universe, you have fear. Whether it is separated into drops or not, water is water. ⁠
⁠
Our life and death are the same thing. When we realize this fact we have no fear of death anymore, and we have no actual difficulty in our life.”⁠
⁠
― Shunryu Suzuki⁠⁠⁠⁠
