I would like to take a moment to talk about bringing peace to your mind

Your thoughts soar and then they plummet, followed by wandering, jumping, and falling off track. 

Take a moment, take a breath, let go of the need to think this or that, and bring peace to your mind.

Your thoughts are powerful and important to you, but they are not all of you. You can do just fine without them for a while, as you give them a well-deserved rest.

Your curiosity is wonderful and amazing, yet you don’t have to know everything about everything. Your judgment, analysis, and consideration give great value to your life, but you are more than orderly logic.

Give your thoughts a break, a chance to reset. Give yourself the experience of peaceful being.

Feel without having to understand what you feel. See without your vision being muddled by anticipation of what you might see next.

Offer your thoughts the opportunity to improve by letting go of them for a while. Trust your thoughts enough to leave them alone, and when you come back to them they’ll be better than ever.

Until next time, have a wonderful day 🙂

Hi everyone Peter Liciaga here for today's morning meditation and meaningful thought for my community wall podcast.

Today I would like to take a moment to talk to you about making a great day

Is this day not meeting your expectations? Then make it into something better.

You’re creative, you’re resourceful, you have time, energy, and desire. So, make good use of it all.

This world is an amazing place, but it’s not just going to hand you an ideal life experience. It’s up to you to transform positive opportunity into a rewarding reality.

Don’t let yourself be tempted to blame others or outside circumstances when you’re having a lousy day. Step up, take responsibility, and make it into a much more fulfilling day.

Find a little bit of goodness, focus on it, connect to it, then expand on it. The only reliable way to experience a great day is to get yourself involved in making it great.

You have the power to dramatically improve your experience of life right now. Do a big favor for everyone, especially yourself, and make use of that power to make a great day.

Until next time, have a great day 🙂

Hi everyone Peter Liciaga here for today's morning meditation and meaningful thought for my community wall podcast.

Today I would like to take a moment to talk to you about moving past wishing

You wishing something to be won’t make it so. Move past wishing and get yourself doing.

Reality does not respond to mere wishes. To bend reality in the desired direction, someone must take action.

The best person for that job is you. When it’s your wish, or the wish of someone you care about, it’s up to you to do the work.

It’s a good thing that wishes don’t come true on their own accord. If you could get anything just by wishing, nothing would offer any meaning, value, or fulfillment.

As it is, every genuine desire gives you the opportunity to make a difference using skill, effort, commitment and more. Life has great potential for fulfillment and richness because it is built on more than empty wishes.

Your wish will do nothing until you do something. In that truth is a world of opportunity and fulfillment.

Until next time, have a wonderful day 🙂

Hi everyone Peter Liciaga here for today's morning meditation and meaningful thought for my community wall podcast.

Today I would like to take a moment to talk to you about impulses

Avoid being dominated by your impulses but don’t completely ignore them either. 

Your impulses provide a window into who you are, what you’re feeling.

Many impulses appear foolish to your rational mind. Yet there is a whole lot more to you than just logic and reason.

Manage and control those impulses that are clearly and obviously foolhardy. Yet ask yourself, where do they come from, what are they trying to tell you?

What seems crazy today could very well prove to be brilliant a year from now. Impulses can bring things to the surface that you don’t even know you know.

Impulses remind you of what you’ve forgotten. They connect you to possibilities that are not yet fully evident.

Exercise discipline and control over your impulses while at the same time respecting their visceral wisdom. Your impulsive side is there for a reason.

Until next time, have a wonderful day 🙂

Appearance matters. What matters even more is the substance upon which the appearance is based.

The way you say what you say is important. 

Of much greater importance is the truth in what you say.

Pay attention to how things look, to how your ideas come across. 

Pay more attention and put the bulk of your energy into the quality and integrity of your thoughts and ideas.

Be sure to get the finishing touches right. Be even more diligent about getting the underlying facts, the work, and structure right.

What most people see is what’s on the surface. Yet what determines your quality of life is the amount of truth and goodness that exist beneath the surface.

Offer a good and appealing face to the world. And behind that face, fill your life with depth, with substance, with understanding.

Until next time, have a wonderful day 🙂

Hi everyone Peter Liciaga here for today's morning meditation and meaningful thought for my community wall podcast.

Today I would like to take a moment to talk to you about the freedom to think

To be truly free requires that you make the often-difficult effort to think for yourself. Those who do not take the time or effort to sincerely seek the truth, open themselves up for tyranny and abuse.

A life of quality requires effort -- your own effort to think, to reason and to act with integrity. There is no way around that. Sincere effort and commitment lead to joy. Lack of effort will surely lead to suffering. It happens over and over again, day after day, in a million different ways.

True freedom is not freedom from, it is freedom to -- freedom to achieve, freedom to think and to reason, freedom to make a difference. The next time someone offers you some kind of effortless fulfillment, think about the absurdity of such an offer.

The fulfillment is in the effort. The freedom is in the responsibility. Learn from others, but don’t allow them to do your thinking for you. That’s your job. And your reward.

Until next time, have a wonderful day 🙂

Hi everyone Peter Liciaga here for today's morning meditation and meaningful thought for my community wall podcast.

Today I would like to take a moment to talk to you about however it may come

Ease your burdens by acknowledging those burdens. Liberate yourself by admitting you are not perfect.

Deepen your understanding by realizing how you’ve been mistaken. Gain control over fear by confronting your fears.

You can’t make the difficult and uncomfortable things go away by pretending they don’t exist. You actually gain the upper hand on those difficulties by being clear and honest about them.

Your life will never be completely free of trouble. Yet you do not have to be defined or dominated by any of those troubles.

You can choose to accept that life has downs as well as ups, and that your existence is not flawless. By doing this, you free yourself to successfully deal with it all in ways that give your life richness and fulfillment.

Discover how confidently you can take life as it comes, however it may come. Continue to make value, beauty, and goodness from it all.

Until next time, have a wonderful day 🙂

Hi everyone Peter Liciaga here for today's morning meditation and meaningful thought for my community wall podcast.

Today I would like to take a moment to talk to you about the power in the little things

Little things done often can be more effective than big things done occasionally. Make a little positive difference enough times and you’ll soon discover you’ve made a big difference.

A small kindness is a little thing you always have the opportunity to offer. Do it a hundred times, or a thousand, and you’ll change your life, as well as the lives of others, for the better.

Little things are simple, easy, accessible, repeatable. Little things give you a continuing way to invest in the goodness of life.

Little things provide a way to take action without the need for elaborate planning or scarce resources. And the more action you take, the more value you create, the more fulfillment you experience.

Look around eagerly with kindness, respect, understanding and good cheer. Notice all the little things you can do today.

Remind yourself often to avail yourself of the little things. And watch as life grows in richness and meaning by the minute

Until next time, have a wonderful day 🙂

Personal development with daily habits

-

If you think about it, personal development and empowerment is mostly about establishing habits and breaking old, toxic

behavioral patterns.

Here are 5 tips to adopt in your lifestyle:

1. Wake with the sun

Your body is tuned to the day-night cycle.

Humans tend to be active throughout the day and rest during the night.

Try waking up at 5-6 am and you'll feel the difference for yourself.

2. Read regularly

Books are your chance to pick someone else's brains and experience.

In fact, reading remains one of the best ways to enhance your creative thinking, as well as knowledge on subjects.

3. Dress up well

Wearing fresh, clean clothes or even something jazzy, can be one of the best ways to boost your self-confidence.

In turn, self-confidence will allow you to think more positively, as it makes you feel more capable overall.

4. Push negativity away

One of the best habits to adopt is to recognize thoughts and push them away if they're toxic.

Usually, we latch onto a thought and create other, similar thoughts.

This is especially valid with negative thoughts.

Try and swipe those thoughts away!

5. Network

If you're looking to grow, you need the right people around you.

Try and surround yourself with people whose mindset is oriented towards growth, rather than negativity.

Hi everyone Peter Liciaga here for today's morning meditation and meaningful thought for my community wall podcast.

Today I would like to take a moment to talk to you about being truly and courageously you

Don’t bother with worrying about what you are expected to want. Dig deep into your awareness and understand what you really do want.

It’s easy to let yourself be told what you should do. Yet life’s richness comes from the freedom and responsibility of deciding for yourself what’s best to do.

You will make mistakes and you will own those mistakes. And by so doing you will also, with considerable effort, follow an authentic way forward.

You know that your purpose is not to check off the boxes on someone else’s list. Your purpose is to create a unique experience of life.

Yes, there is much value you can exchange with others. Yet that value comes from living in truth as you know it, not from blind obedience or imitation in either direction.

Give to all of life the benefit of your unique, authentic perspective. Enrich yourself and all those around you by being truly and courageously you.

Until next time, have a wonderful day 🙂
