“Coaching is a form of development in which an experienced person, called a coach, supports a learner or client in achieving a specific personal or professional goal by providing training and guidance.[1] The learner is sometimes called a coachee. Occasionally, coaching may mean an informal relationship between two people, of whom one has more experience and expertise than the other and offers advice and guidance as the latter learns; but coaching differs from mentoring by focusing on specific tasks or objectives, as opposed to more general goals or overall development.[1][2][3]”

“Self-control, an aspect of inhibitory control, is the ability to regulate one's emotions, thoughts, and behavior in the face of temptations and impulses.[1][2] As an executive function, it is a cognitive process that is necessary for regulating one's behavior in order to achieve specific goals.[2][3]

A related concept in psychology is emotional self-regulation.[4] Self-control is thought to be like a muscle. Self-regulation, whether emotional or behavioral, is a limited resource which functions like energy.[clarification needed][5] In the short term, overuse of self-control leads to depletion.[6] However, in the long term, the use of self-control can strengthen and improve it over time.[2][6]

Self-control is also a key concept in the general theory of crime, a major theory in criminology. The theory was developed by Michael Gottfredson and Travis Hirschi in their book A General Theory of Crime (1990). Gottfredson and Hirschi define self-control as the differential tendency of individuals to avoid criminal acts independent of the situations in which they find themselves.[7] Individuals with low self-control tend to be impulsive, insensitive towards others, risk takers, short-sighted, and nonverbal. About 70% of the variance in questionnaire data operationalizing one construct of self-control was found to be genetic.[8]” -Wikipedia

This is how my Christian (Grandma Clara) saw me when she was living in Earth. “Proverbs 32

1. An honorable man who can find? His worth is far above riches and glory

2. The heart of his wife trusts in him and his children have no lack of gain

3. He does them good and not evil all the days of their lives.

4. He works hard and faithfully to provide what is needed

5. Safe and secure is his family as they look up to him and honor him

6. He delivers the poor who cry and the orphan who has no helper

7. He makes the widow's heart sing for joy

8. He stands firm in what is just and right

9. He is eyes to the blind, feet to the lame, a father to the needy

10. He breaks the jaws of the wicked and snatches the prey from his teeth

11. He fears the Lord and delights in his commandments

12. With honor he accepts responsibility and courageously leads with integrity

13. In the town square he is known and commands respect everywhere he goes

14. In the waters of his heart are plans and he has wisdom to draw them out

15. A man of loyalty and tenacity is he, trustworthy and faithful

16. His sons are with him, observing and learning, a model for them is he

17. His sons are mighty and noble on the earth, a testimony to his character

18. Overbearing, domineering inflates pride and ego, but is impotent and vain

19. There are many men, but you are a real man, you are God's man

20. His wife and his family follow his godly leadership

21. A godly man who fears the Lord shall be praised

22. His wife and family rise up to honor him

23. Let the works of his hands praise him.”

“Watch your thoughts, they become your words; watch your words, they become your actions; watch your actions, they become your habits; watch your habits, they become your character; watch your character, it becomes your destiny.”

Lao Tzu. I very rarely date, and I very rarely have sex because most people are undisciplined in terms of their media habits.

“23. You have a demanding career or life goals

Sometimes, ambitious career aspirations or specific life goals can take up a significant amount of your time and energy. If you’re fully dedicated to your professional or personal goals and don’t want anything to disrupt your focus, being single forever may be a natural choice.” “25. You prefer solitude and introspection

Some people thrive in solitude, finding it a source of inspiration, creativity, and self-discovery.

If you find deep satisfaction in spending time alone, whether for introspection, pursuing your passions, or simply enjoying your own company, you may be content with being single forever as it provides you with the solitude you cherish.

It’s essential to remember that these signs you might be single forever do not guarantee that you’ll be single forever. People’s circumstances and desires can change over time.” “22. You have a strong sense of independence

If you highly value your independence and self-reliance, being in a relationship where you must compromise and rely on someone else may not appeal to you. You might be content with your freedom and control in your single life, making it more likely that you’ll remain single forever.” “8. You have a lifestyle that is more suited to the single life

Suppose you have a successful career and spend significant time traveling, or you work long hours and do not intend to cut back. Your lifestyle might be more suited to being without a partner, so you may have to accept being single forever.”

“In his critically acclaimed books, The Second Coming of Christ and The Yoga of Jesus, Yogananda wrote: “Many are the churches and temples founded in his name, often prosperous and powerful, but where is the communion that he stressed—actual contact with God? Jesus wants temples to be established in human souls, first and foremost; then established outwardly in physical places of worship. Instead, there are countless huge edifices with vast congregations being indoctrinated in churchianity, but few souls who are really in touch with Christ through deep prayer and meditation.” When asked about Christ’s resurrection and the second coming, Yogananda never considered Jesus’ literal return to Earth. He said:

“A thousand Christs sent to earth would not redeem its people unless they themselves become Christlike by purifying and expanding their individual consciousness to receive therein the second coming of the Christ Consciousness, as was manifested in Jesus. Contact with this Consciousness, experienced in the ever new joy of meditation, will be the real second coming of Christ—and it will take place right in the devotee’s own consciousness.” I am a practitioner of Expanded Consciousness and Expanded Subconsciousness. Both mean that I build my character within the realm of wisdom, clarity, and discernment. I am a practitioner of sacred activism (social justice as a heart-centered practice), and I I am a practitioner of sacred humanism (being a people person as a heart-centered practice): I am a peace agent, soul healer, shadow work person, chakras person, ancient wisdom person, and modern wisdom person. I love the idea of afterlife punishment being corrective, remedial, purgative, purgatorial, and restorative. I must admit that sometimes pure evil makes me so rageful that I have moments of wishing eternal conscious torment in Hell on them. There are no “fire and brimstone” Pentecostal rituals required in The Universal Christ Consciousness. We are Paradise in human form on earth to each other, we are angelic in human form (secularly speaking) on earth to human form to each other. Oppressors on Hell on Earth in human form and they are demons in human form (secularly speaking) in human form.

“The secular community believes that we are all members of a race-the human race and we share one home - the planet Earth. We all have the same basic aspirations for life, liberty and happiness. We should not be separated by religion or discriminated against because of skin color, sexual orientation or other prejudices.

2. The universe is governed by one overarching set of laws, the laws of nature.

3. To lead a happy, productive, virtuous life does not require the belief in an all-powerful, supernatural being aware of our every thought and action and interceding in our daily lives. On the contrary, within the bounds of natural laws, we are masters of our own destinies and are responsible for actions we take and their consequences. There is no supernatural being or force that will come to our rescue if we as individuals or as a human community fail to make the right choices. We are capable of establishing, on our own, an effective set of guidelines that allow each individual to seek happiness and live harmoniously with each other and with nature.

4. The human community, who must exist within the laws of nature, needs to respect and preserve the environment. Humanity must take urgent action to reverse the course of climate change that is already affecting the biosphere and increasingly threatening the very existence of the planet's plant and animal populations 5. Every human being is entitled to a basic set of rights as follows: The right to life and liberty: liberty being the freedom to do that which injures neither another person nor the environment.

The right to be happy.

Being free from discrimination based on a person's race, color, sex, sexual orientation, religious or other personal beliefs, nationality or social origin.

Not being held in slavery or servitude.

Being able to live in a free and open society with the right to vote, free speech, a basic education and an environment free of harmful pollution.

Have an opportunity for honest employment that provides, at a minimum, a sufficient income to cover basic needs for themselves and their families.

Have access to quality, affordable healthcare.

6. A democratic, secular society provides the best opportunity for communities to be happy, prosperous and peaceful. A democracy is generally defined as rule by the majority, usually indirectly through a system of freeely elected representatives. As happiness is the most important aspect of the human condition, it is incumbent on government to provide an environment that is supportive of an individual's ability to seek and achieve happiness in their lives. https://www.thesecularcommunity.org/guidelines.php https://www.thesecularcommunity.org/environment.php

“The parable of the Good Samaritan is told by Jesus in the Gospel of Luke.[1] It is about a traveler (implicitly understood to be Jewish) who is stripped of clothing, beaten, and left half dead alongside the road. First, a Jewish priest and then a Levite come by, but both avoid the man. Finally, a Samaritan happens upon the traveler. Although Samaritans and Jews were generally antagonistic towards each other, the Samaritan helps the injured man. Jesus is described as telling the parable in response to a provocative question from a lawyer, "And who is my neighbor?", in the context of the Great Commandment. The conclusion is that the neighbor figure in the parable is the one who shows mercy to their fellow man. Some Christians, such as Augustine, have interpreted the parable allegorically, with the Samaritan representing Jesus Christ, who saves the sinful soul.[2] Others, however, discount this allegory as unrelated to the parable's original meaning[2] and see the parable as exemplifying the ethics of Jesus.[3]

The parable has inspired painting, sculpture, satire, poetry, photography, and film. The phrase "Good Samaritan", meaning someone who helps a stranger, derives from this parable, and many hospitals and charitable organizations are named after the Good Samaritan. The word "Samaritan" has also gained, besides the ethnoreligious meaning, the sense of a charitable person.”

“No, no. Listen. I put everybody that comes into my life in the category of a tree. Some people are like leaves on a tree. The wind blows, they’re over here. It blows the other way, they’re over there. They’re unstable. Seasons change. They wither and die. They’re gone. That’s alright. Most people in the world are like that. They’re just there to take from the tree. They aren’t going to do anything but take and give shade every now and then. That’s all they can do. Don’t get mad at people like that. That’s who they are. They were put on the earth to be a leaf. Some people are like a branch on the tree. You gotta be careful of those branches too. They’ll fool you. They make you think they’re a good friend and they’re real strong, but you step out there on them, and they break and they leave you high and dry.

But if you find you two or three people in your life just like the roots at the bottom of that tree, you are blessed ‘cause them the kind of people that ain’t going nowhere. They ain’t worried about being seen. Don’t nobody have to know they know you. Don’t have to know what they’re doing for you. But if those roots weren’t there, that tree couldn’t live. A tree can have a hundred million branches, but there’s only a few roots down at the bottom. I’m telling you son, when you get some roots, hang onto them. But the rest of them, let it go. Let folks go.” -Madea (Tyler Perry)

“Social entrepreneurship is an approach by individuals, groups, start-up companies or entrepreneurs, in which they develop, fund and implement solutions to social, cultural, or environmental issues.[1] This concept may be applied to a wide range of organizations, which vary in size, aims, and beliefs.[2] For-profit entrepreneurs typically measure performance using business metrics like profit, revenues and increases in stock prices. Social entrepreneurs, however, are either non-profits, or they blend for-profit goals with generating a positive "return to society". Therefore, they use different metrics. Social entrepreneurship typically attempts to further broad social, cultural and environmental goals often associated with the voluntary sector[3] in areas such as poverty alleviation, health care and community development. At times, profit-making social enterprises may be established to support the social or cultural goals of the organization but not as an end in themselves. For example, an organization that aims to provide housing and employment to the homeless may operate a restaurant, both to raise money and to provide employment for the homeless.

In 2010, social entrepreneurship was facilitated by the use of the Internet, particularly social networking and social media websites. These websites enable social entrepreneurs to reach numerous people who are not geographically close yet who share the same goals and encourage them to collaborate online, learn about the issues, disseminate information about the group's events and activities, and raise funds through crowdfunding.[citation needed]

In recent years, researchers have been calling for a better understanding of the ecosystem in which social entrepreneurship exists and social ventures operate.[4] This will help them formulate better strategy and help achieve their double bottom line objective.[5][6]”
