Step Into Courage
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “Courage Is a Love Affair with the Unknown” ― Osho The unknown can certainly evoke anxiety but we don’t have to run the other way. Instead, we can take courage. When we’re taking courage, it doesn’t mean we’re without fear. Courage is doing it anyway in spite of our fears. […]
The Perfect Body
Post Written By Eugene Morgan No one has the perfect body or perfect personality. When it comes to our self-image we will always find something about our body that we dislike, especially when the body begins to show signs of aging. The good news is that we’re not alone; we all dislike something about our […]
Finding Another Way Of Thinking
Post Written By Eugene Morgan For us to get around or through a problem, we must find another way of thinking. If our conclusions are dead ends, then it is time to revamp the way we’re thinking about the problem. We need to re-educate ourselves by looking at the problem with a new entry point. […]
When Do We Start
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Have we really started on what we set out to do? Or are we still thinking about what are the next steps? How long do we continue thinking about what’s the next thing to do? If we just set up an agenda for the week and make it our goal […]
Go With The Flow
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Sometimes, we got to go with flow instead of resisting. Sometimes, we resist because we don’t want to deal with uncomfortable feelings.

Understanding Is Our Reward For Learning
Post Written By Eugene Morgan For us to understand, we must be willing to learn. As long as we’re alive, we will continue to learn about something.

Plan, Then Execute Intelligently
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “The idle mind knows not what it wants.” ~Ennius In other words the idle mind is basically daydreaming and not really consciously thinking about what to do next.

The Right Direction
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “If you are facing in the right direction, all you need to do is keep on walking.” ― Gautama Buddha Sometimes we find ourselves lost in our distractions that we walk in a circular fashion because we don’t have purpose and/or goal in mind. Purpose can mean placing meaning into the […]
Don’t Stop, Persist
Post Written By Eugene Morgan We don’t have to stop, when things get harder. It is all right to be persistent even if we’re alone in our struggle. Being persistent means that we will never give up. We all have seen plants grow through hard soil and even through concrete. The plants were persistent in […]
Reorientation, Changes Us Not Things

It Is Our Choice, Fight or Flight
Post Written By Eugene Morgan We do one of two things; we either fight or flight, when it comes to self-preservation. When we have self-doubts and/or trepidations, and, when it comes to making a change in our lives, we can either choose fight or flight. If our choice is flight for our self-preservation, we will […]
Asking A Foolish Questions, Saves Time
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “He who asks a question is a fool for five minutes. He who does not ask a question is a fool forever.” ~ Chinese Proverb Why not feel a little stupid when we don’t know. For us to get ahead it is better to feel foolish now when asking a […]
Creativity and Choices
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Creativity is another opportunity to have more choices in one’s life. Creativity is thinking differently than before. Creativity is revelation to something that we don’t know about. Creativity is the result of our imagination. Imagination is the expression of our creativity. Creativity is permissible. Creativity is without judgments. Creativity is […]
Past Wrongs
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “Remembering a wrong is like carrying a burden on the mind.” ― Gautama Buddha Our memories are made from our experiences.

All That We Are

Are You Unable Or Are You Able?
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “He is able who thinks he is able.” ― Gautama Buddha In order words, if we think we’re unable, then we will demonstrate this in our action.
