Faith vs. Fate
Faith vs. Fate
I believe that sometimes we get confused about the difference between accepting things as they are and resigning ourselves to how things are. These are two very different ways to look at things but the difference in how you approach reality is sometimes the difference between a peaceful life and a stress filled one.
I call this difference of perception Faith vs. Fate. There exists out in the world all sorts of reasons to choose turmoil; there is no lack to these things they are all around us. The only real control we have is in how we approach all these things.
Often when people start looking to improve themselves they try things for a little while and then give up, much more common however are those that try for a few months even and when things don’t work out they say, “well I guess it just wasn’t meant to be.” It’s when you say this that you resign yourself to whatever “fate” has in store for you. I would rather see people approach these sorts of situations with faith. When something doesn’t work out as you intended there is always a lesson to be learned that will help you in your next venture, or even in your next attempt at the same venture.
Faith is asking yourself “what can I change next time that will improve my experience?” Sometimes the answer is that you need to set out in another direction entirely, but most of the time you find that in looking at what didn’t work, we will find out what does work.
Next week we’ll begin a two part free teleseminar called “Being The Miracle, finding your inner happiness regardles of circumstances.” I’ll have more information on this great call tomorrow, but for now, have a beautiful day.

There is a real power in getting off your backside and going out and getting something done. You see, no great success ever happened without someone somewhere getting up and acting on whatever idea or impulse they had, I have a friend who used to complain a lot that all his great ideas had been stolen, fo example at one point very early in the time of the cell phone he mentioned that if a phone had a small camera built into it you could take pictures of the people stored in your phones address book so you could remember who they are, I thought it was a great idea, and sure enough some years later we had the camera phone. And I will be the first to tell you that my good friend was more than eager to say that someone stole “his” idea. When the truth is that no one stole his idea, at any given moment multiple people around the world are having the same new idea, but the one who acts until they achieve success is the one who gets the lion’s share of the winnings. We know now that having a camera on your phone isn’t even a special feature anymore; it pretty much comes standard on most cell phones, why? Because someone who was blessed with an idea took action. You see no single person is given any single idea for some new innovation, and that is because most people will not take action, so to ensure that whatever the universe is hoping to create multiple people are having this same idea, and it’s not even who has the idea first that wins, it’s the person who acts on the idea that achieves it, the world is full of complainers, but there are only a few doers and if then world had more doers the complainers would slowly become extinct.

Just a quick note that I am almost finished with an incredible short audio program about how one simple change in our attitudes can change not only our lives, but the lives of everybody in the world. It’s actually an expanded version of the last blog post and I’m really excited about it. It should be complete later this week, and I’ll have it available on the website for free. Also look for some pretty cool upgrades to the blog and the total website in the next few weeks!
Love In Action,
Keith
