“Self discovery is the stepping stone to an INPowering life. Seek, and you will find.”
~Garland McWatters
Thoughts are things
Our thoughts shape our actions. We can program ourselves for INPowerment when we select what we will think about and how we will think about living our lives.
I hope these sayings and my audio commentary about them will help you become more INPowered at home, at work, and in your community.
Practice creative discipline
Are you impulsive, easily distracted, and a world class procrastinator? Find the self-discipline hacks that work for you.
Potential is God-given, success is your creation
We hear a lot about potential as a way of encouraging ourselves. Another way of encouraging potential is to look at our successes.
Let your heart be touched
Soft heartedness is misunderstood for weakness. When we INLiven our heart, we wake it up the full range of emotions that inform us from the inside out.
Move forward or move on
I’ve learned that when I move on, a sense of relief reinvigorates me on those projects that are front of mind and vital.
Impossible or I’m possible. Decide which.
Rather than write a goal statement, I should write myself a challenge, “My mission, should I choose to accept it is to . . . then fill in the blank.
Truth is like finding gold
There can be so much information that obstructs and distracts that the truth of a matter is not immediately obvious.
Dare Yourself
Dare we hold ourselves to the highest ethical and moral standards in governing, business, and personal conduct?
Stop talking and Be
We must continually hold ourselves responsible for being the example good we expect in others.
Go out and see what you can find
Check out what’s going on around you as a matter of casual exploration. No agenda. Just wholesome curiosity.
Learn to sail into the wind
When you hit the headwinds of adversity, find your angle of approach so that the adversity creates some advantage instead of letting it stop you.
Adversity is nature. Grit is nurture.
Nature involves a struggle, a give and take, resistance, challenge. Hanging in there, persisting, overcoming is fundamental to personal growth.
Receive what comes to nurture you
I have become more INPowered as I have become more curious about new experiences, especially if they might help me grow or mature as a person—that will nurture me.
