When you are in the thick of the forest or nearer to rural rivers in tropical countries, the sounds of frogs at night is unmistakable. It appears they make those sounds anyhow yet it is has in their own world codes for other frogs to take note off as well as wading danger off from predators wanting to kill these seemingly innocent animals.
Other animals, small and large make their noises sparingly be it at night or during the day. Unlike them, the frogs noises when you hear it is a continuous one that goes on and on till the early morning times the next day.
Human make sounds purposefully. Each sound is a form of communication to denote emotional or physical feelings. Some sounds are for interface with other human beings. However, what is more powerful in humans is not the sounds but their actions in any given circumstance. Perhaps that is why the saying, ‘action speaks louder than words’ make a lot of sense. It is the non-verbal communication that sustains human beings, promote, defend, advocate and or put bluntly express their intent and not what they say.
The quotes this week are a continuation extraction from a book that when read in full would open your mind to realise that which is the key to sustainable life. It pinpoints where your life responsibility is situated. I am sure that the few listed quotations from this book below, will enlighten you to one or two life lessons. Read and enjoy:
THE SOURCE by Dr Tara Swart
“Creativity is freedom. It enables us to direct the full power of The Source to create the life we envisage for ourselves. It enables us to draw on our other pathways, and use them in unexpected ways, using the law of attraction and visualisation to manifest our desires.”
“As you overwrite deeply embedded belief systems, your new ways of thinking will come to redefine the new you. Once this happens, you’ll be better equipped to deal with the surprises life can throw at you, and you’ll start to get more of what you want out of life.”
“Exploring the ‘ghosts’ we all carry, and thinking about how well they serve you now, is a revealing and rewarding process. Are these ghosts you have taken on without questioning their helpfulness or accuracy? Have you found yourself following ‘rules’ that conflict with your deep wishes? Note down any insights in your journal. Try to keep these insights in the front of your mind and notice when they play out in real life. Make journal notes on how they show up in the present. Start to make small changes that can adjust these sub-conscious reactions over time. This is how you start to take charge of your future.”
“Much more often than we realise, our perceived failures or vulnerabilities turn out to be some of the most important predictors of transformation and success in our lives, but at the same time we are much harsher judges of ourselves than we would be of others. From an exam failure or redundancy that led to a successful career shift, to a relationship ending when it was time to move on, we are too quick to judge the unexpected nature of these actions as an indicator that we failed, rather than as part of the ongoing process of moving onwards and upwards.”
