05 Jul 2010 Freedom – What Is Your Definition?
 |  Topic: Choices, Freedom  | Tags: , , ,  | Leave a Comment

Free as a birdWe talk a lot about freedom, yet we all have a different idea or definition of what freedom really is right?

Your idea of freedom may be:

  • More time for your family.
  • No alarms in the morning.
  • No financial worries.
  • Being able to take vacations whenever you want to.
  • No stress in your life.
  • I want to be as free as a bird

I am sure you could add many more items to this list.

But today’s question is:
Are you going after your ideals of freedom? Or are they simply day dreams?

Many folk spend their lives simply dreaming of the “what ifs”.

Others spend their days going after their dreams and those are the achievers. These are the folk who ARE able to enjoy their ideals of freedom (plus many more benefits of a lifestyle of freedom).

Are you an achiever? Or just a dreamer?

Freedom Is A Choice:
I am sure you are an achiever right? Freedom comes to those who go after it, just as all good things in this life come to those who go after them.

Are you ready to go after your freedom?
I have accepted a challenge to follow a 210 plan of affirmations. John Di Lemme has thrown down the gauntlet and many have picked it up!

I have. Will you?

Here is the challenge: 210 Day Challenge of affirmations.

What actually is the challenge?

29 Jun 2010 Fear Is A Developed Habit

Little Girl AfraidLast night I was listening to a conference call with John Di Lemme entitled *17* Motivational Tips to DEFEND against the Brutal Onslaught of Fear!

One of the 17 tips that most stood out to me was:

Fear is a developed habit.

I was studying a book about Accelerated Education when I visited my sister last year, and there I came across an interesting statistic. It was reported that Jack Canfield once sent a team of researchers out to accompany 100 school children for a whole day. They were asked to note every negative and positive statement or comment that were spoken by these youngsters. Here are the astounding results:

  • The average positive comments spoken were 72 while
  • The average negative comments spoken were 684!

How could this happen?
A very high percentage of the words that surround you and I every day are predominantly negative. The children mentioned above were repeating what they were hearing AND at the same time, they were developing habits.

What kind of habits? Habits of speaking negatively.

Your daily habits are developed by what you think,
what you decide and what you do.

Because of the multitudes of negative words that surround you every day, if you are not making a conscious effort to think, decide and act positively, the habits you are developing will be negative ones.

This means that if you are not making a conscious effort every day to think, speak, decide and act in faith, you will by default be developing a habit of fear.

Mm, could this be true? Yes because the default attitude in this world is fear!

First two steps to take you from fear to faith:

  1. Recognize that your decision to create a faith habit is a decision to enter into a battle.

    Why? Because you are deciding to go against the main flow of this world.

  2. Make a firm decision that you WILL fight against all fear and negative words by developing faith habits.
The best way to change a wrong habit is by developing a right one.

Three daily steps to turn fear into faith.

  1. Read and watch good strong motivational and inspirational teachings every day.
  2. Make declarations and affirmations of faith that are targeted at the areas of your life where you discover there is fear.
  3. Make affirmations of faith targeted at your dreams and goals.


Above all – ACT in faith.

Make notes on everything motivational that you read and watch and act on them. Do what you are affirming and declaring.

JillFaith words – faith decisions – faith ACTIONS – create your faith habits.
