#7 The first sense

Something happens when you stand in front of the mirror to fix your looks. And you most likely overlook it every time.?

The image of what you should look like is preset in your limbic mind. Many times you can not describe that perfect image with language.?

That is why, as a lady, you may not be able to describe perfectly to your makeup artist what to build on your face. But when she creates the beauty you desire, you see it and know it.?

In the same way, as a guy, you know when your barber has made a nice haircut based on that perfect image.?

A senior friend calls it your sense of good. But I like to call it the first sense. I'll tell you why later.?

The first sense is an innate system that contains our default reference points for perfection.?

Recently, I read the creation story in Genesis 1, and I was so thrilled about the creation story again.

Before God began to restore the earth in Genesis 1:2, he had a picture of the world he desired to see.?

He already mapped out the needs and intricacies of the new earth.?

When he began to create, the reference point for what the earth should look like was in his mind.

With his superior intelligence, He could translate the perfect image into a perfect creation.?

He did this by his words (confessions) and His actions.?

For this reason, you see a statement repeated continuously.?

And God saw that it was good.?

That is to say that He didn't stop at creation until he had reached his perfect definition of good. Similarly, you won't leave the mirror until you achieve your preset image of good.?

This activity demonstrates the extent to which man has retained a measure of God even in his depraved form.?

That world remained perfect until an inferior intelligence was allowed to contribute to it through words and actions.?

The depravity in man continues to wind down that first sense as we gravitate towards the end of this age.?

That is why there are imbalances in exercising our natural sense of good. We all differ in how much of this first sense we can use in our academic, work or relationship engagements.?

Personal excellence and success in self-leadership depend on your ability to exercise this first sense and keep it at its best.?

Creativity and corporate excellence also depend on our connection with our natural sense of good.?

But your ability to achieve outstanding creativity and superior results depends on your connection to a supernatural sense of good.?

And by superior results, I refer to those beyond the regular human type, including breakthrough inventions, uncanny innovations, thoughts leadership, industry leadership, and everything that is not commonplace in any generation.?

Whatever you do, you should discover and maximize both your natural and supernatural sense of good.?

When you do this, success becomes easier for you to achieve in everything you do.?

In successive newsletters, I will talk about exercising your natural sense of good.?
