Ray Charles to the Bull || You must not see IT - Creatures of Habit

One thing very significant about, Ray Charles, was his ability to play blind to certain things going on around him.  Yet, spiritually his eyes were very much open.  It was many situations occurring frequently in his life, where he had to overcome his handicap and be the greatest person possible, regardless to the challenges he faced.  We have a brief, but vivid description of his mother, that he reflects on through his entire adult life.  She raised him to need no help and be independent, relying on no one and never allowing himself to feel handicapped.  The moment she realized that without a doubt he would soon be physically blind, she begin that very moment, instinctly as a MOTHER, to instill in him self knowledge and POWER that would be his foundation and strength.

As we become more like RAY CHARLES, spiritually seeing the power we have within us, we realize we are overcomers and can overcome any situation or obstacle placed in front of us  We begin to accept our weaknesses or handicaps and still find greater purpose within our lives  We are not purpose by a long shot, Everybody's Doing the Mess Around" in some aspect of life.  Messing around could be considered "wasting valuable time" when you could be focused and doing your greater purpose  Just as "Georgia" meant so much to Ray Charles, so should Grambling to me, and also where ever you are from  Improvement should be constantly on your mind.

Ray Charles put so much passion in his life, music, and entertainment.  Also, no matter what he faced, in almost every image, you see him with a smile on his face.   Pushing through drug addictions and other impurities, I will not reflect on, because I wish to further uplift icons, and not say anything to diminish he's outstanding character in any way.  He was a human being, surviving, providing, living, and thriving, making no excuses and serving his fullest purpose, inspiring many.  Just as I was inspired to post a blog about him  Just as he inspired Jamie Foxx to act a magnificent role in the biographical film.

Now, for the situations we face in day to day life.  Be blind to the negative situations that come only to stir up strife in your life.  Be blind to the people that only come around to lower yourself esteem, you must not see their craft.  Your eyes and ears are gates to your subconscious.  Be deaf and blind to those who mean you no good.  Im not saying, turn the other cheek, or ignore and allow them to keep tormenting you.  I'm saying what begins in your mind will be manifested.  When you realize that their opinion isn't important.  When you realize you don't have to include them in your life or personal experiences, it changes your outLOOK on the way you view them and the power you are giving them over you.  Be Ray Charles to the negative people on your job, because you never have to see them ever again when YOU go get another source of income.  Be Ray Charles, to the negative people in your community because the life and location you see yourself living that life in, is far from them because you are going in completely different directions.  Be Ray Charles, to the people who are trying to influence you to do things you don't feel comfortable doing.

Last but not least, be Ray Charles, to seeing yourself in a negative way.  Be blind to your insecurities, do not linger on them and give all your attention and energy in thinking you are lesser.  See the good in you, see good left in the world, and start from there.

I am master || The Art of Self Mastery - Breaking These Cycles

The more you gain knowledge of what lies behind the mirror's reflection of you, it becomes self evident, the creation and manifestation power you possess.
Gazing at the reflection of your soul is possible through meditation.
Your soul's mirror is the back of your eye lids.
When focusing on the insight of reflecting on your soul, past mistakes, errors, imperfections, and impurities, still accept yourself as being a divine being with a purpose.
The secret to first master is honest with self.
Always know there is room for improvement.
Always know you still have room to grow and expand, you are bigger and more important than you could ever imagine.
Viewing hero's or people said to have super human abilities they possess this same trait.
The natural state of survival, protection, providing, and serving others.
What gives them this edge over all others, this Christ consciousness?
The ability of knowing themselves and continuing to add worth and value to themselves.
Once they learn they have special powers and abilities, they must learn then to channel that energy and learn it also comes with great power and responsibility.

Are You Bring Your Best Self- Encourage Yourself

Encourage Yourself

No Matter how good you are or great you are, some people can not and will not ever accept you

You can not force these people to like or accept you

If they do not like you, you must realize their opinion, thoughts, and energy do not matter.

You must know the intentions of those around you but most of all have the best intentions for your own life.

Encourage is defined as giving support, confidence, or hope to some one.

Also to give support or advice to someone so they will do or continue to do something.

How many people in this world can you count, that are encouraging you on a day to day basis?

Encouraging you to be a better you, encouraging you to not give up on yourself, encouraging you to continue to grow, or even encouraging you to try to love again.

Not many?

Well if you are blessed with a circle of many people who consistently make it their effort to encourage you then you have a spiritual family that you should be thankful and grateful for.

With that team of people providing you with confidence and positive energy, it is nothing that you can't do and achieve, if you put your mind to it and believe.

Yet, this is the real world and my blogs must deal with solutions to REAL life problems

In all honesty life is filled with a lot of fake love, ill intentions, guarded hearts, and attention seekers.

It can even be fake encouragement also

Some people may encourage you to go in the wrong direction

Encourage you to be dishonest.

Also, it may be many in the social media, who will encourage you with likes or excessive attention.

Do not let fake encouragement go to your head, just like you shouldn't let people who try to discourage you get in your head.

How Great would it sound to hear, family, friends, or even GOD himself say, "KEEP UP THE GOOd WORK?"

Those are words you may rarely hear, and if you hear them you may even feel as if they were used in sarcasm.

Yet, these are words and affirmations you must consistently tell yourself, to continue in striving for perfection, in your day to day endeavors and also in your demeanor if you are planning on doing work for GOD.

If you find yourself in a position in life where you are being drained, of all your positive energy, and hope; continue to exercise, pray and practice affirmations in your life.

Encourage yourself and push yourself, you will always find sooner or later that it is indeed always a solution and way out or every problem and situation.

I do not write blogs to receive praise from others, or even encouragement to continue to write blogs.

I have learned to look within to be encouraged.

I write blogs to encourage others, and also no matter how many views, likes, or shares I get, I understand I AM SUCCESSFUL because I made the effort, to plant a seed, and I am consistent at watering it and watching it grow.

With every follower I do gain, it is growth and progress.

I do not wish to RUSH anything I this life, I would rather pay attention to detail, and exercise patience.

In taking my time, from week to week, month to month, and year to year, it should be recognizable evolution in my blogs, writing skill, and lifestyle.

God Bless all the readers, followers, and subscribers.
