Sir Froggie’s Pondering

Ancient Amphibious Wisdom for a Modern Day World



WHAT’S TAKING PRECEDENCE TODAY?

Are you organized?  Prioritized?  Living in alignment with your values?

What’s taking precedence today?

We often talk about what we wish we had in our lives, what we really want, and what we’d do if we had it.  How much of ourselves are we willing to commit to manifesting these desires?  It’s easy to come up with reasons we can’t follow our dreams or reach our goals.  But truth be told, it’s just as easy to submit reasons why we CAN follow our dreams and reach our goals!

We’re the leader of our own lives.  We create the rules, values, and objectives we live by.   We choose or allow our support teams or lack thereof.  If we want things to change, it’s our responsibility.  Yet it’s frequently an unconscious underlying belief which shifts this responsibility and puts us in the role of helpless victim instead of the ruler of our own life. 

We are not victims!  Sure, we may have experienced wrong-doing by others.  We may have experienced awful situations which knocked us flat and left us wounded.  But within each one of us lies a powerful, magnificent human being perfectly capable and worthy of leading us to the pinnacle of our lives, dreams and goals.  No matter how improbable things may appear at any given moment, anything is possible.  

But is it worthwhile?  Is it what we truly desire?

It’s important to review our lives and what’s taking precedence in them.   Do our priorities align with what really matters to us or are they a result of unconsciously giving our power away to others?  (Note: this is not the same as consciously serving others by choice!)  What do we give our heart, soul and energy to on any given day?  What is it all leading to?   What difference is it making in our lives and the lives of those we care about?

If we were the president of our own country and had the power to achieve anything we felt was in our best interest, and the best interest of our country, what would we want to do?  What actions would it require?   Are we working toward these achievements in our life as it is today?  If not, why?

If we don’t have the money, it can be earned, raised, granted or loaned.  Knowledge can be learned, borrowed, or shared from those who have the wisdom we need.   Help can be hired, bartered or volunteered.  Time can be scheduled.  For every excuse we have not to do what we dream of there’s an alternative way to enable and assist us in achieving our heart’s desires. 

It’s time to take the lead of our own lives, of our deepest calling.  We must ensure what we really want and that it’s a worthy investment of our time, money, effort, wisdom, and heart energy.   We must know it’s in our highest good even if we’re not sure why yet.  And we must align ourselves with these goals if we’re to bring them to life.

Pause for a minute.  Ponder where you are leading yourself…
