Most people have to be able to see and know how things will get done before they try to change their situation for the better. Take goingback to school for instance; there are a lot of people that would love to go back to school, if for no other reason than to have that accomplishment under their belt. But, they look at their situation and find a million and one reasons that would make that goal impossible to obtain...no babysitter, what about work, how will I get there, when will I study, what about my family, will it consume too much of my time, can I finish, how will I pay for it (the list goes on and on)? Usually people focus so much on negativity that they rule out any future goals that they may want to accomplish because of the negative clutter already in their minds. The term we "speak things into existence" is quite true. When you think negatively and consider yourself defeated before beginning, you take yourself out of the equation by NOT believing that ALL things can be changed…people, circumstances as well as finances.
What people fail to realize is before you expect someone else to come through for you, you have to make the first move and come through for yourself. Make some moves to better your OWN life and change your OWN circumstances. No one wants to help someone that isn’t helping themselves. My point is, people are more inclined to help those that want something out of life, besides a hand out.
So Today my Voices are Asking you for a Favor: please change your way of thinking? Instead of thinking about millions of reasons things can't be done, think about the opportunities that may arise if you put yourself in a prosperous position. Just start doing things and deal with the hick-ups in life as they arise. You will be amazed at the help and support you get when you step out on faith!
A situation will never change by doing the same things over and over again. You MUST change your way of thinking, if you want any type of change in your life. It starts with you…
Until Next Time
My name is Natasha Jarvis and I am a Donaldsonville Native currently living in Laplace, Louisiana. I am a full time mother, wife, student, worker and now blogger. Improvement is one of my favorite words, because there is always room for improvement, regardless of the subject at hand. The last few years of my life I have been on a self-growth journey and I’m always looking for ways to improve myself as a whole. The Message Behind the Voices is not about me professing to be perfect or a preacher…it’s simply about me traveling along my Journey to Self. My journey to self consists of things that inspire me, my take on situations and things that I experience. Writing about these things is my way of sowing…I open myself up, by peeling away the layers one word at a time. I share my personal experiences in hopes that it can affect others in a positive way.
