What You Do Has Far Greater Impact

The Roots Of The Problems We Face In The World, In Our National Life, And In Our Family And Personal Lives Are Spiritual.

We Must Not Let The Actions Or Words Of Others Determine Our Responses. Magnanimous People Make The Choice To Respond To The Indignities Of Others Based Upon Their Own Principles And Their Own Value System Rather Than Their Moods Or Anger.

Don't Get Buried In The Thick Of Thin Things.

All Things Are Created Twice, But Not All First Creations Are By Conscious Design. In Our Personal Lives, If We Do Not Develop Our Own Self-awareness And Become Responsible For First Creations, We Empower Other People And Circumstances Outside Our Circle Of Influence To Shape Much Of Our Lives By Default. We Reactively Live The Scripts Handed To Us By Family, Associates, Other People's Agendas, The Pressures Of Circumstance - Scripts From Our Earlier Years, From Our Training, Our Conditioning.

When Two People In A Marriage Are More Concerned About Getting The Golden Eggs, The Benefits, Than They Are In Preserving The Relationship That Makes Them Possible, They Often Become Insensitive And Inconsiderate, Neglecting The Little Kindnesses And Courtesies So Important To A Deep Relationship. They Begin To Use Control Levers To Manipulate Each Other, To Focus On Their Own Needs, To Justify Their Own Position And Look For Evidence To Show The Wrongness Of The Other Person. The Love, The Richness, The Softness And Spontaneity Begin To Deteriorate.
