...Habits become our Destiny

This is the third part of the quote:?“Thoughts become actions, actions become habits, and habits become our Destiny.”

Yes, today I will talk into our habits and how they are leading us into our destiny.Just think of all you have done so far, all your experiences, all the skills you have learned, and the habits you have knowingly and unknowingly, incorporated in your daily lives.Whether you like it or not, everything up to this point, has made you into the person you are today.?

For some people, looking back is an absolute pleasure, for many it’s not quite so appealing….but are you changing what you do and the way you do it? Probably not!?

I know we are creatures of habit but, surely, when things are not going in the right direction, shouldn’t we at least change?some?things? Isn’t the hight of insanity doing the same things over and over…and expecting different results?

So, the question I need to ask is: Why do you keep doing the same things and complaining about your life to everyone who wants to listen…or even those who are usually trying to avoid you because they know what is coming?

Remember I mentioned previously, that everyone lights up a room, some when they enter and others when they leave...Which one are you?

My next question is: What are you going to do about it?

Are you going to keep looking back, even though that’s not where you going, or are you finally going to focus on your future, starting on that often evasive day called TODAY?

Could it just be that, even though your habits become your destiny, you have no clue what your destiny looks like, and there for you don’t have any idea which habits are helping or hindering you??Are you merely existing and moving from one day to the next until that last day arrives and you just disappear?

We ALL have a purpose in life, we all have a destiny, and we all have a date with that destiny.?

The frustration comes when you keep repeating a past you are trying to get away from because you don’t have a WHY…or more correctly, those amazing dreams, those beautiful visions, that passion, has been knocked out of you through consistent disappointments, negative surroundings, and repeated failures.?

How is that affecting your health and wellbeing by the way?

It is time to discover, or re-discover that why, that passion, that purpose and get your life back on track.

For many years, I knew there was more to life than the way I was living. I did not dislike my job but I had that constant voice, that constant feeling, that constant reminder that I was meant to do more.?As I was slowly putting that puzzle together, that feeling got stronger all the time until I finally found that missing part, after which it became a no brainer.

For me, it became: “If not now, when?” and “If not me, who? And it was a done deal. Has that journey been easy? No. Is it worth it? Most definitely.

Just this morning I had the privilege to be part of Transformation Lebanon Round tables with teenagers in Lebanon, where the Value we discussed was Hope.?To listen to young people speaking openly, honestly, and with passion about the hope, what it means to them and the future of their beautiful country is absolutely priceless.

That powerful values based leadership process was my missing piece and when I found it in Guatemala 8 years ago, I quit my job to follow my heart.

Did I have to change some habits? For sure, but when you know where you are going, when you find your passion, when you walk simple steps every single day towards your destiny, it is so worth all the effort.

Life takes on a totally different meaning filled with positivity, passion, and hope. How do you think that affects your health?....

I love the quote from this mornings' value of Hope:?

“Where there is hope in the future, there’s power in the present.”

Live with hope in your heart and feel that power deep inside of you, then spread some of that hope to the people around you. To your family, friends, your community, even to total strangers, just like these stunning teenagers are doing in Transformation Lebanon, and you will feel so much more invigorated; You will feel that life is worth living.?

You will feel that those new habits you are creating lead you on an amazing path to your destiny.
