The Weeping Lecturer

In the morning, the heavens opened and it began to rain. Bella grabbed her umbrella to get to school, as she walked out of the hostel the first

The value of action

Life does not compensate us for insight, understanding, wisdom, or intention. It only rewards action. You can tell the power holding that you intended to pay your bills, but all they care about is the money. You can't build a reputation on what you intend to do. It is so easy to get wrapped up in mind games and forget practical, daily living. There has been a battle between what we should be doing in life and what we end up doing.

Now, how do we begin to deal with our

problems? Some schools of thought would say, "we need to find the root of the problem. We need to dredge through the garbage dump of our past and find the original causes to what is bothering us now."

It is now clear that some insight and important information can be gained by looking through the past. However, the more important issue is what is presently going on in your life and what you want to change for the future. Let's say you and I were in the mountains admiring the beautiful rocks and trees.  All of a sudden we heard a noise and looked up. It was the sound of an avalanche. Huge boulders were rolling down the mountain towards us. We are standing in the pathway and will most likely soon be crushed to death.


And suddenly with a frightened look you turn to me.  I respond by saying, "Be calm. All we have to do is to find the root cause for why those rocks started rolling towards us." Then you respond by saying, "You are out of your mind! What we need to do is to start running for our lives."


But you should be right. It is only after we are safe from the biggest boulders that we can take the time to determine how it all got started. And perhaps then, when we were safe from the biggest boulders, it wouldn't even matter how they all got started. Probably a more important issue would be how to escape from boulders and to not get any more rolling.


Now what are the big boulders in your life? Are you scared enough to even run for your life?  Have you been "hurt" enough to change? Dear when you seek emotional health and freedom from your hurt and pain as you would fight for air to breathe when it seems you are dying— then you will change.

Things you should expect when you connect with your spot

Get out of the rat race. After all, if you win, you will simply be the big rat. Stop running in the competition. The only person you should compete with is yourself. "how well am I performing in my leadership spot," is what you should ask yourself. You have to know that the battery does not compete with a spark plug, because the battery knows the spark plug can never be a battery, and so on. They sit in the engine in their spots and serve the engine their gift without competing

Why does negative behaviour continue?

It works. There is some kind of payoff, some type of momentary satisfaction that is derived from not changing. The reward might be financial or psychological. Some people will continue unproductive behaviour to seek approval, acceptance, praise, or love. Others continue their unacceptable actions out of pride, greed or a sense of personal fulfilment. They may oppress others with their need to always be right because they treasure being right- even if it destroys a relationship.

Adding value to other people is the work of a positive influencer

As you move up to the higher levels of influence and become an active influencer, you can begin to have a positive influence on people and add value on their lives. That's true for any positive influencer. The baby-sitter who reads to the child encourages him to love books and helps him become a lifelong learner. The teacher who puts his faith, confidence, and love on a child helps the child to feel valued and good about herself. That boss who delegates to the employees and gives them authority as well as responsibility enlarges their horizons and empowers them to become better workers and people. Even the parents who know how to give their children grace and when to, also help them to stay open and communicative. All of these people add lasting value to the lives of other people. One thing is this, we don't know what kind of influence you have on others, today as you read this article. Your actions may touch the lives of thousands of people. Perhaps you use the opportunity
