Be comfortable in your own skin. Expect nothing, especially from others so you don't cringe if and when you are disappointed.
Respect yourself enough till you are not able to break your own principles grown in the observance of the Truth as times went by. Your principles are investments you made and developed through much adversity. You know better not to fritter them away.
Should you constantly disrespect your own vows made towards the attainment of the growth and accomplishments of your discovered and developed definite chief aim, you will soon discover how much you have been prodigal with the sterling and irretrievable treasures that life bequeathed to you.
Work hard and clearly state your lines of remuneration. Strive to deliver as agreed, even when it may not come with great pecuniary benefits. You are building lifelong credibility with each opportunity. Look not down on any engagement. It will either make or break.
Should you be cheated, know for a surety or certainty that you may have met with and trusted a phoney. As you go along, learn to trust only the one who instructs that you trust not his own creature.
Mark that phoney, but do not lose your sanity. Make sure you are true because you will only truly attract to yourself the same measure you give.
Again, your inexperience may work against you. Being a nymph comes at a price, but so does being a veteran. Do learn to use sincerity of purpose and be always ready to activate the dictum of service. You should find the resilience to forge ahead. It is the discipline of focus.
The law of sowing and reaping is the foundation of all laws, and no entity is able to escape it. Despite forgiveness, a man shall pay for that which he has sown. The seed shall become tree and bring forth fruit in its season.
Watch your actions therefore, but first guard your reins diligently. A man once lived beloved of his Maker, said to be after his maker's heart, with his sins covered, yet, for his infraction sword did not depart from his household.
Another, though pardoned and gained express access to the place of rest, had to have his natural life taken. His pardon did not spare him his physical life. That which we give is that which we get. None shall escape.
Make sure you live now that you have a shot at life. Do not die because you are afraid of living, and all together fail to live. You would have short-changed yourself. We live each day managing one risk or the other.
It is okay to be rejected. A germinating plant seeks the sunlight to extend its territory beyond the ground, but in the process of doing so, it may meet a boulder or a rock on its way to accomplishing its purpose.
That gives it an opportunity to redirect its sails. It does not complain for it seeks the sunlight, and the sunlight it must find. It is a program. What do you seek?
How are you programmed? What program runs in you? Though some programs are written for life, some are coded for death.
When man was made, he was the last thing created but was placed above all. With the mind of his maker was he made but he stooped so low necessitating his need for redemption.
How low or high are you operating despite redemption, which comes with a total package of restoration, riches, and bliss?
Look away from that man who fell, though he is in you right now. When he Adam [man] fell, you [Adam/man], fell, too. When the second Adam [Christ], came in the express image of the Maker, you have been given the opportunity to rise, but have you risen?
You have the law of life woven in the second Adam, the Lord, and thus have you another opportunity to live. This is not sermonising. It is the perfect knowledge of the Life, the Truth, and the Way.
Unfortunately, religion kept us bound and by its precepts, each one of us creates our own religion. Isn't that why we all operate by our own personal laws, and may have become and taken laws upon ourselves?
We are that powerful living based on the maker's image and likeness, though having multiple perversions of same. The mixture of inheritance in us is one we must be thoroughly separated from. We should not from the same source, emit sweet and bitter.
Manage disappointments. Learn how not to be disappointed through expecting nothing from man. But do ensure one thing, though: Constantly shore up your value in that which tilts in alignment with your natural inclination. It is purpose.
As you constantly shore up your value and cutting-edge delivery, your own think-tank and inner circle shrinks, though your impact widens and thickens. Get used to this.
The deeper you go in growth in alignment with your purpose, the more of the unseen you will discover. Should you find the energy to share through service as you deliver, you may constantly find yourself at the antipodes with some other great men.
All men vacillate towards only two ends, either the light or the darkness, but each claim to show the light. Life is ludicrous though plausible. It is the paradox of existence. You must learn to find balance in this complexity.
Quality is not the preserve of the majority. Though the majority yearn for quality, only a few are able to pay the price for quality is born in much discomfort and adversity.
Life will always hold hitches, impediments, and obstructions, but these are not to grant you access to anxieties. They are to make you wise through the acceptance of what life is. These are to make you indeed wise.
The sensible one is the one who lives in the realization of the truth. The one who knows the truth but lives it not may never be free from unrighteousness. Daily applying oneself to the truth shows one the way of life.
In the acceptance and application of the truth to yourself, you are tortured and the ignorant may jeer and heckle at you but that is the path that guarantees your being sensible.
Through much patience, endurance is earned, and longsuffering acquired. In these wisdom is established. It is gain earned in pain.
No man is good, including you, for the creature, being fallible was made subject to vanity. Live in the realization and constant reminder of this truth, not less. It shall grant you peace of mind.
This is the kernel of redemption unpacked to guide you through life in the ephemeral. Be mindful that only through observing the divine nature in the natural shall you live on earth as if you are living in heavenly places.
