Sweet Inspiration Part 3

Many years ago I came across this tiny booklet titled Think by Dr. Robert Anthony.  I was cleaning out my bookshelf over the past few weeks and re-discovered it. I would like to share a few of his inspirational messages with you here:

The biggest risk in life is not risking.

What we are is God's gift to us.  What we become is our gift to God.

Excuses are your lack of faith in your own power.

You can get everything in life you want, if you will help enough other people get what they want.

There are many things I want, but few things I need.

If you prepare for old age, old age comes sooner.

If you are going to give a gift, notice your true intentions.

People concern themselves with being normal, rather than natural.

Worry comes from the belief you are powerless.

Your ability to relax is in direct proportion to your ability to trust life.

Whatever you want, wants you.

Most of the time we don't communicate, we just take turns talking.

The way to win is to make it okay to lose.

Whatever you are afraid to do is a clear indicator of the next thing you need to do.

 Less effort creates more results.

If you have a constant need to help other people, notice how you must keep them helpless.

Life always keep its agreement with you.

Hoping and wishing are excuses for not doing.

He who laughs, lasts.

If your life isn't working the way you want it to, notice you're lying.

If you don't know what direction to take, you haven't acknowledgde where you are.

Once you except an idea it's an idea whose time has come.

Sweet Inspiration Part 2

Many years ago I came across this tiny booklet titled Think by Dr. Robert Anthony.  I was cleaning out my bookshelf over the past few weeks and re-discovered it. I would like to share a few of his inspirational messages with you here:If you don't have what you want, you are not committed to a 100%. 

Your enemy might become your friend, if you allow him to be who he is.

If you worry about what might be, and wonder what might have been, you will ignore what is.

Before you can break out of prison, you must first realize you're locked up.

When you blame others, you give up your power to change. 

Whatever you are willing to put up with, is exactly  what you will have.

If you acknowledge you are unconscious, you are no longer unconscious.

Your interpretation of what you see and  here, is just that, your interpretation.

If you find a good solution and become attached to it, the solution may become your next problem.

Criticize the performance , not the performer.

You are the cause of everything that happens to you .  Be careful what you cause.

There is no right or wrong, only consequences.

The one who loves the least controls the relationship.

If you require someone to change, you require that person to lie to you.

If you don't like the direction the river is flowing, don't jump in.

We fear the thing we want the most .

Feelings of inferiority and superiority are the same.  They both come from fear .

Thoughts to Inspire Part 1.

Many years ago I came across this tiny booklet titled Think by Dr. Robert Anthony.  I was cleaning out my bookshelf over the past few weeks and re-discovered it. I would like to share a few of his inspirational messages with you here:

You don't have to be positive, you just have to be yourself.

You can only have two things in life, reasons or results.  Reasons don't count. 

If you are constantly being mistreated, you're cooperating with the treatment.

You don't have to be positive, you just have to be yourself.

Trying provides two excuses, an excuse for not doing.  And an excuse for not having.

You cannot control without being controlled.

There is no way to know before experiencing.

Consciously or unconsciously, you always get what you expect.

Others can stop you temporarily, only you could do it permanently.

Whatever you are trying to avoid won't go away until you confront it.

If you don't start, it's certain you won't arrive.

What you can't communicate runs your life.

The Street Dogs of Detroit

I was shocked to learn that there are over 50,000 stray dogs in Detroit, many of them living on the streets. Almost 90% of the dogs picked up by animal control are euthanized. This video is a short documentation of one man who cared enough to show the rest of us and try to raise awareness of this sad issue.
