We choose what to think about and focus our energies on.
Hello world. The following was written 8/19/2015.
Sitting on my porch I was guided to play two songs by Ledisi from her Soul Singer album called Coffee and Get Outta My Kitchen. The first song talks about abuse and the choices we make to leave or stay. In the second song she talks about no longer listening to the judgments of others or seeking their advice. I would highly recommend listening to these songs and hearing what is actually being said in them.
In everything we have a choice. We choose what to think about and focus our energies on. We manifest what we focus on. If we are focused on the negative it manifests around us. If we focus on the positive it will manifest as well. We choose what it is we focus on. We choose what it is we are going to believe and place our faith into as well.
In life we get to pick and choose who we surround ourselves with generally. Who we are going to spend our time with and give our attention and energies to. Think about the people you interact with and socialize with on a daily basis. How much of the interaction is negative based? How much is positive based? How much time are you focused on the negative over the positive? How often are you judging what is being said by others? How often are you giving unasked for advice? How often are they judging you? Giving you advice that isn’t asked for? How do these questions make you feel about yourself? How does it make you feel about them?
