Immersion

Call it goofy, but I do what I do to inspire myself.
The last three posts that I have here on my blog about Decisions, Clarity and Peace? They are primarily, for me. And of course I am hoping that somebody else could benefit from it as well.
They say the holidays are depressing for some people. Well, I knew that for a fact, especially if you are spending it by yourself. I have no relatives or family here – except for my son, who had to work during the holidays.
So I figured, I got to prepare myself for the battle of the mind! So, that’s why immersion in something that is POSITIVE is important. So I just listened and these three videos kept me company as I was doing stuff around the house. I really didn’t feel THAT alone, as I am just analyzing what I am listening to, more like an immersion in my own thoughts as I listened to them and try to understand how it applies to my life.
I am thankful and grateful that I get to realize the very important things that I am realizing these past month and a half or so, since I started blogging at Empower Network. A very good friend of mine, have aptly said, well, maybe the exercise is helping me also “grow up” – it wasn’t said in a negative way, but it was just so TRUE! It’s like a mindset shift, about being so much more aware of certain things in myself and in people. It’s being more aware of the motivation behind certain reactions from people.
I wrote this somewhere in my blog post, that we just “cannot correct a mistake we cannot even admit” – that’s true. And so I also said this a lot in the past, how can there be real forgiveness if there is no remorse on the part of the person who has wronged you, or they cannot even admit or acknowledge that they have wronged you? Well, there are just so many things in life that we cannot change, but we can only change our reaction, our own reaction to them – we have that power to control our reaction to them.
So, in light of the holidays, and my immersion in all that these holidays MUST stand for, what can I do that would make me become “okay” in the eyes of God?
Well, a public declaration of: ” I again would pledge to forgive everybody everything.” Number one, because God commands it. Number two because unforgiveness is bad for me (it gives the devil a foothold when we have unforgiveness in our hearts, it breeds hatred which turn into bitterness. Bitterness is nothing else but hatred stretched towards time). Number three, because if I don’t forgive, God’s justice cannot come. So obedience is better than sacrifice.
Another thing that I have been listening to are the Inner Circle Audios. From broken people who found acceptance and success at Empower Network. It’s encouraging and inspiring.
There’s a lot of non-EN bloggers that blog about Empower Network in a negative way. I wonder what their motivation is, but I can only guess. The Empower Network has a very good Alexa Ranking (find out the current ranking at www.Alexa.com). A lot of people want to ride the bandwagon, talking about what they think Empower Network is, WITHOUT REALLY KNOWING what it is. You can only KNOW what it is if you decide to be a Member. Otherwise, if you write about something you don’t know anything about, it is simply called gossiping, or speculating. I’m just calling it what it is.
There are 40,000+ Members worldwide who blog daily, talk about what they want, market what they want and there are those who also write about the Empower Network products (like I do also). So, the Empower Network is no longer a mystery, nor a secret. There’s way too many Members who are speaking positively about it, and showing screenshots of their own results. The positive impact that the Empower Network is giving to its members cannot be measured – the personal development that takes place.
We all came out and decided to be members, initially for the money, but you will find that there’s a lot more benefits than what you paid and originally signed up for.
