THE LIGHTHOUSE

The Lighthouse

Today I am inspired to write

I see a new sight

I am moved to prophesy a new future

That will emerge as a new picture

These are not just words

They are seeds of thoughts

I am the voice of the speaker

I am the sight of the seer

The seeker on a noble quest

I can look into the future

I can stare into the scrolls

They are in time turned into rolls

I will fix my gaze on the picture

The sun is out and shining bright

It’s holding me from behind

Awaking me to full consciousness

Who is he that sees the future

Except the One that sits on high

And him He takes beyond the veil

Here comes the Sailor

Amidst the storms of the sea

Here comes the Traveler with the caravan

Moving effortlessly and without hindrance

The pace of tides gone in remembrance

And here stands the Lighthouse.

The Power of Positive Affirmations

The Power of Positive Affirmations: The Success software

I once watched President Barack Obama speak about the power of words.He said, “I have a dream,…are they just words?,Yes We Can… are they just words…?"…This shows that words aren’t just words. Words are filled with Energy, words carry enough power to generate a reaction, a boldly written word like ‘CAUTION!!’ or ‘DANGER!!’ anywhere instantly usher in a stream of negative emotions and release in us the hormones necessary for flight or fight while a subtle sounding word like ‘SERENITY..TRANQUILITY…PEACE…brings in a wave of calmness within us and gets us into a relaxed mood.

Words are powerful seeds of thoughts for the action you desire to see expressed. So we can then say, that words are powerful, and how much more bold ,positive words.

We learnt from the law of echo that the Universe makes available to you what you ask from it,and with that established, we can clearly see how necessary it is to choose the words we speak carefully.

Affirmations are clearly written out positive confessions which are always in the positive, it is meant to create a desired world of positive result.

For instance it is very important to understand that every computer hardware (the physical system) runs on a software. It is a set of written instructions or commands which helps the computer hardware to serve its functions.A software defines the specific details that enable any system complete its task or achieve a particular task without hitch.

Interestingly, for human beings as well, our subconscious mind is like a computer which also needs a form of programming.Research has it that the average human being is capable of making thousands of choices per second. Each of these choices is a result of how our mind works and most often than not our minds have been programmed to make a lot of choices without even giving so much thought about them. The process of Programming and reprogramming our minds through ,faith filled words (from the scriptures) and positive affirmations goes a long way in programming us for success.

I have put below some common examples of positive affirmations, please feel free to put more examples of such common but powerful ones in the comments box at the end of the post:

ALL WILL BE WELL!

I AM A SUCCESS!

I AM GOING PLACES

MY WILDEST DREAMS WILL COME TO PASS!

Till our next meeting, Go and Succeed!

You will Excel!

THE LAW OF ECHO (2)

It's a great day! Today I will like us to do a sequel to our last thread, and it is a continuation of the law of echo treated here

The law of echo is the direct corollary of the law of resonance, like other universal laws, nobody invented or postulated it but it has always been there at work only for us to discover them.

The law of Echo explains furthers the physical occurrence of echo, which is clearly {shown in the equation V=2x/T where V is velocity, X is the distance traveled by the sound wave and T is the time factor involved} illustrated by the phenomenon of reflection of sound, when a sound emanates from a source, it travels like any other wave through any medium and a certain degree of it is reflected towards the source.

This serves as a basis to the thought that whatever you say to the universe travels a long way and comes back to you, one thing that must be described here is that it goes through twice the distance you are from the universe and comes back to you in a factor of time.

Most times, many people speak to the universe what they detest and do not like ,they speak the negative and after some time it comes back to them ,the universe echoes their own voice to them.

However, we can always take advantage of this law by saying to the universe the exact things we want rather than those we don’t want and we can expect the universe to echo it back to us. Most especially, if it is said in faith.

One great way to apply this is affirming and praying our goals into being in the great and mighty name of Jesus, we will have results coming to us faster and stronger than we can ever imagine.

Your Great Friend!

5 Steps to Reaching Your Goals on Time

“Reach high, for stars lie hidden in you. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal.” ― Rabindranath Tagore

Our piece today is about GOALS.

You have actually heard a lot about goals and the need to set goals but I believe if you set goals, you should only be congratulated when you have come to achieve them. In this piece I will carefully review steps that will help you get to your goals faster than you think.

1. BE SPECIFIC: Most times a lot of people really set out to achieve many things at about the same time , this is good in a fast-paced world , however the fact still remains that you need to prioritize your goals and be more specific know exactly what you want and the exact time you want it. Once this has been ascertained, it shows you how and where to direct your efforts.

2. SURVEY: Go find the people who have done it before. No matter what you set out to achieve, some people have really done that before all you need to do is to find out, how many of these people are around you. Connect with them, understudy them, learn how they did it and you are on your way to making it happen.

3. ACT:Take action! Having come this far, you need to act. Success is deliberate and its laws are universal. The principles that worked under given conditions can be reapplied again and again. Start duplicating your findings; make sure you do everything positive within your ability to turn your goals into reality. goals. Whatever you do something.

4. PRAY: Prayer is the master key. It is your link to the dynamic power of God. When you have set specific goals and engaging the laws of success you need prayer more than ever to attract God’s supernatural backing and ensure a total delivery.

5. Visualize and Vocalize: This is the last but a very important step in the overall process. It is taking a leap of faith and ‘calling things that be not as though they were’ Remember the quote ‘whatever a man can believe and conceive, He can achieve’. You must begin to see your dreams coming to pass, and your goals becoming a reality.

QUOTES ON GOALS

“If you're bored with life, if you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things, you don't have enough goals.” ― Lou Holtz

Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment. Jim Rohn

People with clear, written goals, accomplish far more in a shorter period of time than people without them could ever imagine. Brian Tracy

What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.- Henry David Thoreau

Universal Laws : The Law of Resonance

Your Imagination is a preview of life's coming attractions- Albert Einstein (1879-1955)

It is not a new fact that the whole of our world is governed by certain universal laws and principles. These facts hold true anywhere and every time and to their effects, there is no doubt. One common law is the law of Karma or more closely called the law of sowing and reaping which vividly explains that what you plant and sow as a seed comes back to you in bountiful measures at an harvest time, and the law of cause and effect in physics reiterates this. ‘To every action; there is equal and opposite reaction'.

One other law of the Universe which has always been at work whether we are observant or not is the law of resonance. From Physical science, we learn that a body which moves or vibrates at a frequency can make other bodies vibrate along with it once they strike a particular common frequency i.e. the natural frequency of the other bodies.

So the law of resonance in the Universe establishes that everybody in the world vibrates at a particular frequency, and so a vibrating body can equally make others vibrate along in a similar pattern if they have the same natural frequency. This could be the basis for sayings such as ‘birds of a feather flock together’ , an indirect expression of this can be seen in an exercise such as placing a cube of sugar in a corner of the room and in matters of seconds or minutes it is soon located by ants who had not been in site initially.

The rhythmic heartbeat of man is always at a frequency and as such, it radiates energy, so it is when you enter a room charged up with an emotion you could sense it, right there. This is the reason why an atmosphere of mirth or gladness will be totally different from that of strife and sadness. Why is it that you enter some environments or you stay around some people and your creativity and productivity is amplified to a higher level by greater proportions, And whereas you stay with some other people and the result is opposite?

All these are the direct effect of the law of resonance. So everything and everyone could be said to vibrate along with other bodies with which they share the same natural frequency, in other words 'like attracts like' you may like to call it the law of attraction.

Enter the right environment today, locate the right people instrumental to your goals and success!

Till a later date…

You will Succeed!
