If you would like to know one of the biggest pitfalls
of life and how to avoid it remember one axiom,
Substance over Illusion. You see it all around
you, the flashy sports cars, the designer clothes,
and the latest greatest gadgets. Being trendy is
in. It always has been. One of the biggest
problems in our world is the need to feel “in.”
People spend a fortune trying to look like they
have more than they do. Everyone is creating this
big illusion to say, Hey look at me! Your life
belongs to you and should only be measured by your
own standards of success. I have watched far too
many people fail to achieve their goals by
becoming caught up in trying to maintain the
illusion that they had already achieved them.
Learn to live by the thought that you are where
you are in your growth. Do not try to have it all
at once. Allow your life to unfold its bloom
slowly. Do the work first. Reap the rewards later.
Maintaining illusions is hard work but that energy
could be far better utilized in creating the
reality of what you want to achieve. I will let you
in on a little secret. The Jones family that everyone is
trying to keep up with are miserable. They are
constantly trying to stay ahead by getting
themselves into a mountain of debt, acting like
their relationship is fantastic and dressing the
part. The truth is what the Jones family has does not
matter. Keep up with your own goals rather than
trying to keep up with everyone else.
Until next week! Have a Great Life!
