Feelings – Good or Bad

We all have many feelings some are happy, joyful, sad, angry, frustrated, scared, and anxious to name a few. It’s how we view them or think about them that make them good or bad.  It’s what we do with these feelings that will determine whether we live in a world of possibilities with high self-esteem and powerful self-confidence or not.

It’s perfectly okay to have and to feel each and every one of our feelings. However, none of these feelings should be considered good or bad.

Another way to understand these feelings is to look at what events we feel caused a particular feeling.

The events that happen are neutral. Continue reading Our Thoughts and Feelings Our Responsibility →

Our Struggles With ”Fear” & Can We Overcome Them?

Fear as described by www.dictionary.com – “a distressing emotion aroused by impending danger, evil, pain, etc., whether the threat is real or imagined; the feeling or condition of being afraid.”

The fear response is triggered in the most primitive part of the brain, the amygdala and is said to be the most powerful emotion known to mankind.  Fear is, first and foremost a survival mechanism.

Belief Systems, Self-Confidence, Self-Esteem

“The quality of your thoughts determines the quality of your life.”

Understanding how your mind works is the secret behind why some people live happy, fulfilling lives-a life of their dreams, while others seem to struggle-never quite achieving the life they imagined or dreamed of.

We are all born with greatness in us and along the way, well-meaning people impart their belief systems on us as to what is possible or not.

Belief systems are the programs we are running in our mind, they are what we believe about ourselves, our world, and how everything works, it’s what we think is right or wrong and true or false about life.  Some examples of beliefs are: “I’m smart”, “People like me!”, “I’m too old or too young to start a business”, “I don’t think I can”, “Life is tough”, “You have to work hard to make a living”, It’s always been that way”….   Our beliefs directly impact how we feel about ourselves (our self-esteem) and what we can accomplish in our lives (our self-confidence).
