has given me the discovery and realization of the power of the mind. The mind of most people around the world has been turned into hell yet it is important for humanity to transform their minds into heaven and oasis of peace.</p><p>We ought to learn how to control our minds first and foremost we need to choose to avoid media that promote negativity.&nbsp; It is obvious the media, whether mainstream or online have programmed us on what to think or feel.</p><p>The media makes us think and feel about what is not beneficial to us, they pollute our minds with hatred, fear of poverty, and confusion. This makes the scarcity mentality become the norm in our societies yet there is abundance everywhere. </p><p>This mindset results in people having poor health, bad relations,&nbsp;and financial poverty and not having the courage to change their lives. Understanding our Power of the Mind will help us reverse negative conditions we are experiencing in our lives into positive conditions.</p><p>From free diving, we learn the power of the mind by maximizing concentration and not thinking of anything else apart from completing the mission of being under the water for a few minutes.</p><blockquote><p><em><strong>If we are to be successful in any endeavor, we have to put our attention to the end of the action even before we begin to do anything.</strong></em></p></blockquote><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://findclarity.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://findclarity.substack.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p>To increase the effectiveness of our mind we ought to remember to prepare our activities in advance in our minds and have to imagine that we are already successful. The COVID 19&nbsp; Pandemic has been with us for five months now and we have so many restrictions that are affecting people's minds with fears, worries, anxieties, and despair. </p><p><em>To reboot the power of our minds we have to forget the past and future and focus in present moments and do it daily.</em> </p><p>Daily affirmations&nbsp; such as,&nbsp; &#8220;Good things are meant to happen to me .&#8221;&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>This is one of the many good practices that empower our minds.</p><p class="button-wrapper"

together for a common goal. A team is created when people of the same vision come together. There is no teamwork without a vision. The vision gives the destination of where the team members want to be. </p><p>A vision is created by an extensive dialogue of those who get together and from there a Leader and supporters emerge. The fact that one is a leader in a team it doesn&#8217;t make them better than the supporters. One can only become a leader in a team if there is a supporter or supporters.</p><blockquote><p><em>One who becomes a leader ought to understand the role played by a supporter.</em></p></blockquote><p>For a team to grow and become successful, a common vision is imperative. What kills teams and can be avoided from the beginning is members allowing ego and selfishness to take center stage. People who have big egos destroy the growth of any team because they feel they can do everything and they want to take all the credit for the success of the team.</p><p>Individuals who wish to be part of a team should try and attract people who are like-minded as them. This discovery of like-minded people only happens when they meet and share their thoughts, experiences, and what they want out of life.</p><p>During this pandemic, people in teams are affected. Using technology to keep in touch may not make much out of it because human interaction is quite important. Team members should find a way to meet and put their fear of contracting the disease aside and not let what they have worked for die.</p><p>Building a foundation of communication improves the team spirit in the workplace. Creating a dialogue between teammates helps to understand each other&#8217;s feelings towards something. This helps to create the spirit of teamwork. People will have an urge to hit the goals they have set because the spirit of teamwork creates a connection among team members.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://findclarity.substack.com/p/the-secret-of-teamwork?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://findclarity.substack.com/p/the-secret-of-teamwork?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p>To avoid splits in a company, the leader has to act exemplary and appreciate his employees.</p><p>One should have a hundred percent responsibility for their mind to have a good relationship with the rest of the team.

In teamwork, there should be no existence of the blame game because the other person is a reflection of you.</p><p>Every person&#8217;s attitude towards the team matters. One has to try to seek their inner self by putting things in the positive light rather than in the negative in order for the team to succeed. Therefore before one joins a team, it is important they sought their inner self. You cannot isolate your inner self from teamwork because you have to polish on yourself when you are around. Your partner helps you to grow your inner self because you exchange ideas.</p><p>The leader in a team has to place the rest in positions where the best out of them is brought out. A supporter always gains from supporting the leader by growing together to reach a common goal.</p><p>Things that kill the team spirit are; </p><ul><li><p>Comparing oneself to others, </p></li><li><p>Having an ego and being a know-it-all who refuses new information and perspectives.</p></li><li><p>Gossiping among teammates and lack of proper communication.</p></li></ul><blockquote><p><em><strong>Many are scared to join a team because they think they will lose their individuality which is quite the contrary because teamwork brings out the best in each person and puts it together in order to reach success.</strong></em>&nbsp;</p></blockquote><p class="button-wrapper"

We are where we are in life because of our past decisions and if you want to change your life you have to revisit the decisions that have brought you to where you are now.</p><p>What is a decision?&nbsp; </p><blockquote><p>A decision according to the Latin&nbsp;language means to <em><strong>cut all alternatives and do one thing.</strong></em></p></blockquote><p>For instance, you cannot watch all the television stations at the same time. If you decide to watch Aljazeera it means you cannot watch others at the same time. If you are through with Aljazeera then you can watch another different television channel.</p><p>Every minute we make thousands of tiny decisions unconsciously. After reading this article we hope you will be able to make conscious decisions.</p><p>All Decisions have consequences positive or negative.</p><p>Today, if you decide to eat a burger nothing will happen. Just imagine you eat a burger every day for a year. </p><p>Guess what will happen? You will end up fat and unhealthy.</p><p>From now watch what you eat, people you associate with, how you think. In other words, ask yourself this seemingly small decision: &#8220;Where will it take me?&#8221;</p><p>A World-Class Trainer, Anthony Robbins says," <em>The World is governed by two twin forces that are Pain and Pleasure."</em></p><p>When you make decisions do you either seek pleasure or avoid pain at all costs. Some people avoid doing exercises or going to the gym because they fear the initial pain. What they do not realize is they choose the pleasure now however have to deal with the consequences in the future.</p><blockquote><p>The pain of discipline is lighter than the pain of regret. </p></blockquote><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://findclarity.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://findclarity.substack.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p>However, the majority perhaps out of ignorance choose the pain of regret. Come to think about it, anything valuable in life you must choose the pain of discipline for you to manage it. Make sure you have a clear vision of the end in mind what you will achieve after going through it.</p><p>We know what we are supposed to do however the motivation disappears and then we do not do it. That is why most of us set resolutions of the year and fail to follow them through.</p><p>According to Behavioral scientists, it is because we rely on our emotions. That is where the problem is.</p><p>Do you feel to make that phone call? No, You don&#8217;t</p><p>Do you feel to write that letter? No, you don&#8217;t.</p><p>Do you feel like going to the gym? No, you don&#8217;t.</p><p>As you can see we make decisions based on our emotions and that robs us our joy and opportunity. As you learn to leverage making decisions you may never feel ready, motivated, confident, or courageous.</p><p>That is okay therefore push yourself forward despite awkward feelings you may feel. Be a person who has a bias to take action than the bias of thinking. After taking action you will feel better.</p><p>That is how we can leverage the power of our decisions.</p><p class="button-wrapper"

unfortunately, negative thinking is prevalent all over the World. We are bombarded by negative information about politics, economics, society, and even positive stories that are looked at from a cynical perspective.</p><p>In this article, I will mainly focus&nbsp;on the importance of positive thinking during this challenging period in which a lot of us are going through. Daily conversations common in Rwanda are flooded with words such as&nbsp;<em>Namafaranga  </em>[No Money], <em>Amafaranga yarabuze</em> [Money has disappeared]. One cannot fail to feel discouraged.</p><p>As if that is not enough the media constantly talks about the doom and gloom of the     World Economy. It is true we are experiencing difficult times whereby people are losing jobs and investment hence the standards of living have certainly dropped. Every aspect of life has it's up and down and&nbsp;business is no exception.</p><p>The major purpose of this article is to encourage you that economic challenges are normal and you can overcome them if you become prepared. It does not matter how broke you are, the difficulty you are facing to service your debts, or having no job. What matters is are you going to win the economic war and Prosper.</p><p>Life bestows us all with overwhelming problems and challenges and it is up to you to overcome them. Others have done it in the past and that means you can also do it.</p><p>In 1929, during the Great&nbsp; Economic Depression whereby Americans lost jobs, homes, investments, etc.  Those who triumphed invested heavily in personal and professional development. At that time many creative individuals came up with self books to encourage Americans who were living in dire economic situations.</p><p>Dale Carnegie came out with best seller&nbsp;books in&nbsp; 1930's such as 'How to Stop     Worrying and Start Living', How to Win and Influence Friends and subsequent years the famous authors like Napoleon Hills, Clement Stone, Vincent Peale to mention a few wrote books that are influencing successful people around the World.</p><p>Our conscious minds&nbsp;are influenced by the books we read, the people we associate with, and the content we consume. Whatever we feed on our conscious mind goes to our subconscious mind and that what turns to be our life's reality.</p><p>Many years in 1947 to be precise Earl Nightingale said that the greatest secret he discovered then was  that '<em>We become what we think about all day long</em>.'</p><p>If you are suffering being broke or poor, first change your habitual way of thinking what you tell yourself and the words you use every day. Positive thoughts do not produce immediate&nbsp;positive results.</p><p>Solutions for your problems are in books. You don&#8217;t need to reinvent the wheel just learn from people who have been through what you are going through and use their knowledge to get to where you want to be in life. This will save you precious time.</p><p>&nbsp;A Stoic philosopher Epictetus said that "<em>We ought to remove wrong thoughts from     our minds than diseases in our bodies.&#8217;' </em>The biggest challenge is to have the right thoughts if we are to overcome our problems. The right thoughts come from people we associate with and books we read and that is what ultimately determines the quality of our lives. The Best way to triumph any challenge is to be practically optimistic.</p><p>Life was supposed to be difficult and indeed there is no point moaning about the problems you are facing. John Rohn says it well, </p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t wish you had fewer problems, wish you are more skilled. Don&#8217;t wish you had fewer challenges, wish you are wiser and don&#8217;t wish it was easier wish you are better.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>The choice is yours; to have a positive attitude or a negative attitude.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stop Being Your Own Worst Enemy]]></title><description><![CDATA[Photo by Dan Bo&#539;an on

own best friend usually unknowingly.</p><p>When you think of the word enemy, what comes into your mind?</p><p>The word enemy means a person or thing that is hostile to you with intention of harming or weakening you. I don&#8217;t know you or what challenges you may be facing, but what I know is that since you belong to the human race you have experienced having relatives and friends who later became your bitter enemies.</p><p>Having enemies is sadly part of life and those of you who are active in spiritual and religious activities are often reminded that our worst enemy is the devil and his demons who have come to lie, steal, kill and destroy us.</p><p>We all want to succeed in life however we have enemies that will work twice harder than you to stop you from accomplishing your goals.</p><p>The enemy in this article I am going to focus on is not an individual or the devil. There is an African proverb that says, &#8220;<em>If there is no enemy within the enemy out can do you no harm.</em>"</p><p>We have focused on the enemy outside for too long and ignored the most dangerous enemy within who confuses us. Remember every person you meet is either a dream killer or a dream helper. Therefore remember an enemy is one who intends to harm or weaken you.</p><p>The question I want to pose to you, are you harming or weakening yourself? To understand how we become our own worst enemy, let us examine our thought life. The biggest civil war takes place in our minds that is why we do not maximize our potential.</p><p>Researchers confirm to us that we think about 60,000 Thoughts a day and over 80% is negative.</p><p>Your number one enemy is negative thoughts that we harbor in our minds which we inherited from our environments. As children, we picked thoughts from our families, schools, friends, and deposited it in our subconscious mind. We never examined those thoughts and never asked ourselves if these thoughts were beneficial or not.</p><p>Most Adults you see deep in their hearts have no confidence in themselves because they were told very harmful words as children. I know parents did their best to bring us up however, there are parents who destroyed their children unknowingly. Recently I saw a mother shouting at her 5-year son, '' Wewe Shetani, Hauna mana!" (You devil, you have no value)</p><p>What do you expect will happen to that child when he becomes an adult?</p><p>We have all been programmed to be our own worst enemy or best friend. However, statistics show most of us were programmed to think negatively about ourselves. How many ideas have you let die inside you because you did not have the confidence to work on them?</p><p>Steve Biko, South Africa Legend who was killed on September 12, 1977, during the struggle against apartheid once said something profound that, </p><blockquote><p>"The greatest weapon of any oppressor is the mind of the oppressed."</p></blockquote><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://findclarity.substack.com/p/stop-being-your-own-worst-enemy?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://findclarity.substack.com/p/stop-being-your-own-worst-enemy?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p>This means if any person who is your enemy torments you with negative thoughts about yourself after some time that enemy does not have to be physically there for you to continue harming yourself with thoughts planted in you.</p><p>Have you been told as a child that you amount to nothing or worthless by your parents, teachers, or even friends? Those people who abused you in the past forget about them have friendly thoughts towards yourself.</p><p>You can tell if you are your own worst enemy when you feel most of the time depressed. Most of our thoughts we picked from our environment are not healthy we need to discard them.</p><p class="button-wrapper"

Whichever choice they make our political leaders will still be blamed.  Not a pleasant position to be at this time.</p><p>This means that you as an individual has to take full responsibility for your life and not rely on external forces.  You have to rely on your inner power. This  Inner power has many names some call it God and others call it the higher self.  Even some name it as Inner Voice, Intuition, or Instinct. For now, let us call it the Inner power.  </p><p>This  Invisible power has been with all human beings from time immemorial however many of us don&#8217;t even know it exists or pay attention to it. What the majority of us don&#8217;t know is we have been conditioned and brainwashed by various external forces not to pay attention to what is inside us that is why our lives are messed up.</p><blockquote><p><strong>Solutions to all the problems you have experienced or are experiencing now are within you</strong>.</p></blockquote><p>All questions you have asked yourself, the answers are within.  That power will guide you if you pay attention. Have you ever experienced a situation when you had a voice within you that told you to go to a certain place and when you obeyed and went there?  It ended up changing your life for the better.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://findclarity.substack.com/p/your-inner-power?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://findclarity.substack.com/p/your-inner-power?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p><em>If you over-rely on logic you may miss recognizing the voice of the  Inner power.</em></p><p>If you are overly concerned about public opinion.  You will miss the power.</p><p>To be able to recognize the power within.  Begin by silencing the noisy voices that are in your mind that are causing unnecessary drama in your life. One of the ways is to stop or reduce consuming information that is harmful to you.</p><p>How do you get to know the information is harmful? You get to know how it makes you feel.  For instance, if you feel anxious, worried, fearful depressed, or any negative emotions. Make it your personal agenda to begin to look for inspiring information most of the time  and that will change you how you think and feel.</p><p>Doing that on regular basis will make you tap the power within and with that, you will be more than able to conquer all.</p><p>Victory is yours if you get to know the power within.</p><p class="button-wrapper"

situation we are in has blocked normal routine people were used to in the past. A lot of people are stuck and don&#8217;t know what to do with their lives.</p><p>The unknown has always been a fact of life yet we human beings put on an illusion pretending to know what will happen in the future. We tend to think that the easier life is the known one namely the material one. </p><p><em>COVID 19 pandemic has debunked that myth</em>.</p><p>Evidence shows that the unknown life, in this case, the spiritual life, is the one that is most real and reliable.</p><p>Whatever spiritual way one takes is still the unknown but one carries a belief within themselves that all will be well. In this current crisis which no one would ever imagine would happen or when it will end. One can clearly see that there those who have resorted to complaining about COVID&nbsp; 19&nbsp; and what they have lost.</p><p>Fortunately there are also people who have taken a step further to move forward.</p><p>If one would look deeply one can see that COVID 19 has taken something from the people which is freedom and that is indeed traumatizing.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>This situation is a replica of one being in prison.</p><blockquote><p><strong>People have to look at this situation as an opportunity to create a better reality that is fresh.</strong></p></blockquote><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://linktr.ee/isakov&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Follow Haim&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://linktr.ee/isakov"><span>Follow Haim</span></a></p><p>We cannot go on clinging on the material world which is not helpful.</p><p>&nbsp;People have been attached to money but now are unable to spend it in restaurants or socialize with others.</p><p>All the material has been affected including big and small companies, businesses, and even education institutions all over the world that have come to a standstill.&nbsp; </p><p>Instead of us looking at the events negatively. It is for our own good to endeavor to build ourselves in the inside and be able to withstand the trauma we are all experiencing.</p><p>Humanity must take a different approach to understand and that is to be spiritually stable. Understanding your insider self is an unknown journey and one of great importance once you consider pursuing that path.</p><p>If you have the fear do not fight it, observe it but do not either be attached to it. Fear will disappear after some time as a result of your deliberate decision of taking the journey of the unknown.</p><p>We should not desire a life of impressing other people.&nbsp; All that matters is we go deep in ourselves and know who really are and express that part of us. Emotions are beautiful because they make us human, therefore there is no point in suppressing feelings such as anxiety, fear, and worry.</p><p>Some choose to share their feelings of fear and dance which is part of therapy.</p><p>People who lose their jobs have fear for the future like not being able to pay their bills nonetheless one should consider their current situation by expressing gratitude. Expressing gratitude may seem to be strange to those who go through suffering however the poorest people in India are happy and possess joy. </p><p>This is because they concentrate on their inside and not on what they own materially. </p><p>Throughout human history one will come across some people who are successful, they buy houses and cars of their dreams but remain unhappy and unfulfilled.</p><blockquote><p><em><strong>Reality is a reflection of our thoughts.</strong></em> </p></blockquote><p>We ought not to give fear a chance to make us think less of ourselves.</p><p>Jobless individuals can transform their reality within a short time by having a positive attitude that affirms that they are going to find a better job.</p><p>There always comes a time when you are in a bad situation but it will only change when you celebrate by accepting it.</p><p>For children who are out of school, it is their time to take the journey of the unknown towards understanding themselves better.  They should not wait for schools to resume but find things to keep themselves busy and do away with self-pity feelings. </p><p>Parents and guardians should not lock children but give them the freedom and tools to do what they love in order to grow and find their happiness.</p><p>There is a possible threat that human connection is facing due to advanced technology. Technology should be there to help us but not cut human to human connection.</p><p><em>If you are caught between choosing the unknown or known life. I suggest you choose the unknown life and that is where you will experience a rich life.</em></p><p class="button-wrapper"

life&nbsp; and it also comes from the deep core of our hearts.</p><blockquote><p><strong>To live a life with no gratitude is simply a poor life.</strong></p></blockquote><p>Everything demonstrates the celebration and existence of life itself.</p><p>Appreciation therefore will automatically come out in life if one has the right vision of how life works and its beauty.</p><p>When you see the beauty of life your heart will glow with an attitude of gratitude.</p><p class="button-wrapper"

to complain most of the time and looks at every situation negatively.</p><blockquote><p><strong>On the other hand, one who lives a life of gratitude tends to be happier.</strong></p></blockquote><p>&nbsp;If one is driven by ego they tend to take things and life for granted.</p><p>It is evident the energy of&nbsp; gratitude comes from a humble heart.</p><p>The habit of appreciating is one of the most important tools to change how one feels and sees life.</p><p>When one has gratitude as a daily habit, positive things tend to flow to that person.</p><p>When one vibrates negativity on the flip side they experience bad things. </p><p>Gratitude&nbsp; is&nbsp; indeed the medicine of having good feelings&nbsp; and health.</p><p>Have you noticed that when people fall sick they start appreciating life more?</p><p>Do we need to become sick or experience problems&nbsp; to realize that gratitude is a&nbsp; must-have in life?</p><p>It appears most people try to avoid living life just to protect their hearts.</p><p>What they need to realize is that when one connects to the heart they connect to everything.</p><p>The vibration of gratitude brings about self-confidence and one will have trust in life. </p><p>Gratitude will come from an understanding everything is one.</p><p>Negativity comes by itself effortlessly while positivity requires spiritual growth.</p><p>People without the spirit of appreciating end up&nbsp; unnecessarily&nbsp; fighting with reality.</p><p>People who develop a spiritual relationship will be more successful in life, in marriage, and in various forms of friendships.</p><p>Gratitude uplifts people's spirits yet complaints destroy it.</p><p>We need to cultivate&nbsp; the habit of having&nbsp; gratitude whether we have money or not.</p><p>Nothing&nbsp; in life should be taken for granted because it is not guaranteed for anyone.</p><p class="button-wrapper"

Hoseini</a> on <a href="https://unsplash.com/s/photos/money?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText">Unsplash</a></p><p>I recall as a child in Israeli our family was fairly well, owning a&nbsp; house and a car.&nbsp; </p><p>However ironically our dad and mum were always complaining about lack of money.</p><p>&nbsp;At that time&nbsp;&nbsp; Israeli had since 1948 been declared as an Independent state both under socialism and communist system, though it was not officially announced. </p><p>Times were hard around to an extent people shared eggs.</p><p>Those conditions perhaps influenced my parents and people of their generation to complain that money is not enough.</p><p>At the age of 12 years, I left home and went and stayed in a community commonly referred to as&nbsp; Kibbutz in Hebrew.</p><p>There we had a communal lifestyle that people shared what they had and also worked hard mainly on farming with a spirit of harmony among us.</p><p>&nbsp;Money was not an issue at Kibbutz like at my parent&#8217;s home.</p><p>&nbsp;In the community, this triggered feelings of shame and guilt for anyone among us. No one dared to mention even the word money because it was seen as evil and dirty.</p><p>As a child at the community, this is where tasted freedom compared to staying with my family who only indulged in conversations of money not being enough.</p><p>For&nbsp; 6 years at Kibbutz were&nbsp; I was studying and at the same time working with no salary nevertheless&nbsp; I enjoyed it.</p><p>Subsequently, I&nbsp; joined the Israeli army after my completion of secondary studies served a few years and got married at a young age.</p><p>&nbsp;Later after marrying when this time I was mid-twenties I went with my then-wife back to Kibbutz.</p><p>To my surprise life in the community had drastically changed. People there were now extremely individualistic and less about the community.</p><p>It was as if what I had run away from my parent&#8217;s home of complaining about money followed me in the community.</p><p>From then on I started experiencing the stresses of money and this ended my young marriage and friendships in the Kibbutz.</p><p>&nbsp;In the new changes in the community with no awareness of money skills,&nbsp; I&nbsp; found my self several times in debt which I failed to service.</p><p>This stressed me to the core.</p><p>Then out of the blue, I made a decision never again ever pursue money again.</p><p>&nbsp;This happened when I had lost my wallet.</p><p>What I discovered in the experience of not letting money be an issue in my life,&nbsp;&nbsp; opportunities magically opened up.</p><p>I decided to trust my life to existence{God}&nbsp; and the grace of life protected and provided to me in better ways than if I&nbsp; had decided to pursue money directly.</p><p>My choice was and still is not to chase money and not use hard work and effort. </p><p>&nbsp;This does not make sense to most people.</p><p>I know those who chased and worked very hard for money still complain they don,t have enough money. Even those who have money are trapped in the trap of the feeling money is not enough.</p><p>For example, I have my younger brother who has 14 houses and many cars yet he complains he does not have enough money. </p><p>&nbsp;It as if he inherited that from our parents.</p><p>For young people I suggest strongly for them not to think of money.</p><p>&nbsp;Instead, they should focus on what contribution they desire to bring to the&nbsp; World.</p><p>People should pursue what is their passion and like day follows night money will definitely come.</p><p>The belief people should work hard, chase money is erroneous.</p><p>The choice I made was criticized and ridiculed.</p><p>Years later I am admired more than my brother who has lots of money yet he is unhappy.</p><p>Focus on what your&nbsp; Soul wants and what will make you happy.</p><p>I had an outrageous loan in the past which even if I went to work,&nbsp; I would not pay in 25 years.</p><p>My Soul decided to pursue my passion and that is Free&nbsp; Diving later began teaching it to many people. </p><p>&nbsp;Surprise I was able to get money and pay all the loans within the shortest time possible.</p><p>People need to observe where their energy goes.</p><p>There were days I was poor where I had no basics such as food and shelter.</p><p>Even in the dire situations, I lived through I never allowed myself to feel poor.</p><p>The lesson here is you cannot understand money if you have never lacked money.</p><p>Society pushes you to feel unworthy for instance my bother who resides in America often used to ask me how much&nbsp; I am worth. </p><p>&nbsp;That question no longer bothers me because my brother lacks happiness and freedom.</p><p>I advise this young generation that they have to break the chain of attachment of money and not to base their identity on how much money they have or don,t&nbsp; have.</p><p>Even if you do not have a&nbsp; dollar you should not allow it to make you feel worthless.</p><p>Instead of focusing on getting money,&nbsp; think about giving and the exact things you want will follow you.&nbsp; </p><p>Poverty is the state of mind.&nbsp; For example&nbsp; you may have 1 million dollars and you still feel poor&nbsp; or you may have no single coin and feel wealthy.</p><p>The gist of having money is to feel wealthy instead of feeling poor.</p><p>Poverty is not a&nbsp; permanent disease however the attitude of not having money is a limitation that is experienced by a number of people around the world whether they are actually rich or poor on the surface.</p><p>Create your own abundance&nbsp; and you will have to plant it in your mind and heart.</p><p>Don,t blame your family and society of how they wrongly conditioned you about money.</p><p>You have to take responsibility for your own thinking and beliefs.</p><p>&nbsp;Therefore don&#8217;t be lazy on the way of your&nbsp; thinking</p><p>If you work hard and don,t change your mindset it will all be vanity.</p><p>Evaluate your thoughts and feelings about money and don,t allow worry, anxiety, and fear to reign in your mind and hearts.</p><p>Become master of your life and don,t be a slave of pastors, rabbi, politicians, and society in general.</p><p>Trust God and focus on today and he will provide.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Internal Civil

or actor.  He was very good at storytelling and making people laugh however he pursued something else that did not resonate with his passions.</p><p>I could see he was in deep pain however in contrast my mum pursued her dreams and she left the world a happier person because she was active in building communities.</p><p>For me, I invested my time and energy to go to different places to search for the truth.</p><p>In the process, I got various experiences and I have lived an interesting life and that is what I strongly suggest young people do by pursuing life with open minds and hearts.</p><p>Even old people should never allow their age to be a barrier to experience life.  Let them pursue their dreams. </p><p></p><p>It does not matter what they failed to do in the past.  There countless examples of people who are in the 60s and above who are doing more than what they did in their past when they realized life is more spiritual than physical.</p><blockquote><p>It does not matter your age whether you are young or old realize that purpose in life is to keep searching, learning, and never to stop growing.</p></blockquote><p>Refuse to be sloppy and keep being fresh in your life outlook even though sometimes you will feel lost.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://findclarity.substack.com/p/how-to-be-loyal-to-your-vision?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://findclarity.substack.com/p/how-to-be-loyal-to-your-vision?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p>For the children, Parents desire to protect them from harm however it is not possible to protect their children completely. All we have to do is to allow them to be who they are in the World and let them experience life.</p><p> It is difficult for parents to let go of their children however we have to allow them to be free and trust them that they will learn to make decisions as the result.</p><p>We have to allow children to fall and learn at the same time.  Let us remember life is constantly changing all the time.</p><p>Take for example of COVID 19 pandemic chaos,  some people are complaining yet there those who are progressing. They have done painting, written books, invented and innovated products and services.</p><p>In the World, we are facing dramatic change and we need to embrace this change and let us remember life is all about change. With or without Coronavirus  19  Pandemic, change is part of life and it will always be that way. We have to prepare people through discussions that will help them to alleviate their trauma around them.</p><blockquote><p>It is time for creating our personal visions and not allow anyone to influence us.</p></blockquote><p>On endless postponing of reopening schools globally,   the suggestion I share with the youths is for them to think about the direction of their life and think through steps to follow their dreams.</p><p>They should stopover depending on their parents, teachers, and societies because we are all stuck. Let them realize this is an opportunity to pursue their dreams and be responsible.</p><p>Responsibility a term I initially hated now I understand it simply means response to life.</p><p>COVID 19  Pandemic there will be big changes whereby some jobs are gone forever however it has also brought endless opportunities one could never have imagined. Even schools will change,  we have to develop a new way of learning.  The old way is gone and perhaps forever.</p><p>We need to learn to accelerate our learning in technology among other important things about life. We should stop paying attention to the noise and chaos around us and focus on our personal growth.</p><p>We should especially stop listening to those who sell Fear.  Instead, let us follow the voice of love and passion. Despite the feeling of Fear will never disappear completely.  Let us face our fears, grow, and relentlessly pursue our  Dreams.</p><p> That is what courage is all about.</p><p>Create your Vision and be Loyal to it and never blame anyone if life does not happen the way you want or expect.</p><p>Refuse to be a victim and jump in the adventure of life and that is what it means to be loyal to your Vision is all about.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://findclarity.substack.com/p/how-to-be-loyal-to-your-vision?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://findclarity.substack.com/p/how-to-be-loyal-to-your-vision?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[find Clarity on the things that matter the most.]]></title><description><![CDATA[Welcome to find Clarity Newsletter.]]></description><link>https://findclarity.substack.com/p/coming-soon</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://findclarity.substack.com/p/coming-soon</guid><pubDate>Mon, 29 Jun 2020 14:45:35 GMT</pubDate><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to find Clarity Newsletter.</p><p>Silence the noise, find Clarity on what matters.</p><p>Sign up now so you don&#8217;t miss the first issue.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://findclarity.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://findclarity.substack.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><p>In the meantime, <a href="https://findclarity.substack.com/p/coming-soon?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share">tell your friends</a>!</p>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
