All human beings encounter circumstances and conditions in our lives. We can choose to limit ourselves if we surrender to that consciousness of overwhelm. During the Great Depression of the 1930’s, a businessman was concerned about his ability to survive visited with Reverend Norman Vincent Peale and requested advice about his future. Peale told the parishioner he would help and Peale drove the man to a local cemetery. Peale told the businessman that the folks who lived there had no complaints or issues. The obvious implication was that only on Planet Earth do you have issues, complaints and concerns. Peale noticed the man walking away and shaking his head.
It is in our best interest to solve our life issues, complaints, and concerns using our spiritual mind. Every life issue can be effectively solved. Bob Proctor read “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill. He is now a great teacher. He teaches people to live above and beyond circumstances and conditions and find joy in life. Mary Morrissey, was once a student of Proctor. She teaches students to live life overcoming their circumstances and conditions and dream big. God turned the world over to humans at some point of time transferring to us humans the ability to master
challenges and deal with the complexities of life. Our individual issues teach us we are not victims and we can triumph in life and that we can learn to overcome our conditions and circumstances.
There will always be problems and challenges, and people that we have to deal with. It will always rain, snow and there will be harsh weather to deal with. Wayne Dyer once stated that issues, concerns, and circumstances and conditions are spiritually based. Once people learn that their spiritual awareness needs to expand, their mental consciousness grows and they are free of the mental fog of circumstances and conditions.
Great people have faced situations that defy imagination and yet they chose quickly to learn how to master their situation and effectively deal with it. Benjamin Disraeli once said “Circumstances are often beyond human control but our conduct is in our power”. Bruce Lee said, “To hell with circumstances. I choose opportunities, and possibilities”. General Omar Bradley: “We are given one life and it is up to us to wait for better conditions to make up our mind, or whether to act and in acting, to live”. Take action to manifest your dreams, and visions for your better good. The real truth is that you are stronger than your circumstances and conditions. Everyone has the power within themselves to deal with their circumstances and conditions. You, too, can live above and beyond circumstances and conditions. You just have to believe you can conquer everything in life. For example, a friend of mine had a very mean boss. One day, he resigned and the next day, started his own business. He was smiling the last time I visited with him. Where there is a will, there is a way.
A few years ago, Houston was flooded with 52 inches of rain. The angels of our better nature nurtured Houston residents during Hurricane Harvey. Many lives were saved as thousands stepped forward as Harvey flooded the region.
Human beings who have a vision of who they are, are not buffeted by their circumstances and conditions. They firmly believe they can lift their spiritual awareness above in order to achieve their highest dreams. They have confidence in themselves and want to make a huge difference in other’s lives by expanding their vision and dreams. Steve Job’s final words when he made his transition was “Wow, Wow, Wow”. The Universe is friendly, and waiting for you to join up with what you can accomplish to make your corner of the world better than when you first saw it.
