Be Generous

Welcome to yet another edition of Friday Filosophy – the weekly postcard where I challenge you with a question, idea, or topic you may want to think about. Today allow me to suggest you rethink the way you define generosity.
self-esteem

Take Charge of Your Life

Thank God it’s Monday!  Let’s get after it…
poverty

F*ck Poverty!!!

Reverend Charles Fillmore shocked the religious community of his day when he stated it is a sin to be poor.  If this is your first time hearing it, the statement might still shock you. But if we explore the true definition of sin, you will have a better understanding of why Fillmore made that declaration.
making good decisions

Deciding to Decide

About two million years ago, give or take ten minutes, the first humans appeared.  All this time, we’ve been moving forward.  And most of that forward progress has been made without conscious planning, predicting, being politically correct, testing on focus groups, or all of the other things we spend so much time worrying about.
mental harmony

Protect Your Mental Harmony

Think about it. It really doesn’t matter if you are born on the right side of the tracks, attend the finest universities, and inherit a hundred million dollars: If you don’t have mental harmony a prosperous life will be out of reach for you.  Because the benefits of being born in an advantageous environment, gaining valuable knowledge, and possessing great wealth can all be neutralized – if you lack the peace, clarity, and concentration that comes from possessing mental harmony.
forgiveness

Amnesty Day

Sometimes you might be tempted to start your week beating yourself up over the things you didn’t accomplish the week before.  That doesn't serve you. There are enough people who are happy to criticize you; don’t add yourself to the list.  Forgiveness is a beautiful thing.
self-mastery

Getting to Self-Mastery

Today let’s look at the concept of self-mastery. The simple definition of this is self-control, but I believe there is a lot more to the concept because self-mastery is the ultimate superpower.  You don’t just control yourself; you challenge yourself, meet that challenge, and become a better person because of it.
self-sabotage

Are You Sabotaging Your Own Success?

Your prosperity has almost nothing to do with the government, stock market, or economy. Your relationships have much more to do with you, than the people you have them with. No one has a bigger say in your health than you do. And you would probably be astonished at how much you could influence your income if you had higher self-esteem and greater confidence.
