Essence For Abundance

Today is a gift that has been given to you. How will you spend it? Will you rise to the occasion and be the victorious champion of your personal power? Or will you let those opportunities pass you by and be claimed by someone else or some other circumstance? Life is rather simple. You either have what you want or you don’t.

The following excerpt is from the book “The Success Principles” by Jack Canfield.

“Let’s take a moment to really look at complaining. In order to complain about something or someone, you have to believe that something better exists. You have to have a reference point of something you prefer that you are not willing to take responsibility for creating.

Let’s look at that more closely. If you didn’t believe there was something better possible—more money, a bigger house, a more fulfilling job, more fun, a more loving partner—you couldn’t complain. So you have this image of something better and you know you would prefer it, but you are unwilling to take the risks required to create it.

Complaining is an ineffective response to an event that does not produce a better outcome. Think about this . . . people only complain about things they can do something about. We don’t complain about the things we have no power over. Have you ever heard anyone complain about gravity? No, never. The circumstances you complain about are all situations you can change—but you have chosen not to. You can get a better job, find a more loving partner, make more money, move to where the jobs are, live in a nicer house, and eat healthier food. But all of these things would require you to change.

Have you ever noticed that people almost always complain to the wrong person—to someone who can’t do anything about their complaint? They go to work and complain about their spouse; then they come home and complain to their spouse about the people at work. Why? Because it’s easier; it’s less risky. It takes courage to tell your spouse that you are not happy with the way things are at home. It takes courage to ask for a behavioral change. It also takes courage to ask your boss to plan better so that you don’t end up working every weekend. But only your boss can do anything about that. Your spouse can’t.

Complaining means you have a reference point for something better that you would prefer but that you are unwilling to take the risk of creating. Either accept that you are making the choice to stay where you are, take responsibility for your choice, and stop complaining . . . or . . . take the risk of doing something new and different to create your life exactly the way you want it.

Learn to replace complaining with making requests and taking action that will achieve your desired outcomes. That is what successful people do. That is what works. If you find yourself in a situation you don’t like, either work to make it better or leave. Do something to change it or get the heck out. Agree to work on the relationship or get a divorce. Work to improve working conditions or find a new job. Either way, you will get a change.”

The following is a link to a short PDF from the book “The Success Principles” by Jack Canfield. It is a full of great references for getting the successful results you want and I highly recommend the full length book. https://jackcanfield.com/images/stories/the-success-principles-2-chapters.pdf

Go forth today and be “EMPOWERED” in all that you are. Accept your full potential and live the life you love
