Finding Purpose in Life

Finding purpose in life is one of the most difficult things to figure out for most people especially in times of peril.One strategy and this is not a one size fits all but it might work for you. Do a personal survey do some soul searching talk to some unbiased friends, some coworkers generally you want people that will tell you the truth about yourself or at least give their opinion even if u don’t agree just like in business if theirs an over abundance of the same information in terms of your talents or personality flaws then that should be an overwhelming indication (to you) that change is needed. Next, take the mental notes and start trying to make progress toward change. Some people never change which is the case in a lot of circumstances especially those who are older because the (Brain) is so use to functioning at the same capacity for so many years change is usually non-existent but we believe change is always possible that moment of clarity can come at some of the most unusual moments. But either way discipline is needed prayer, meditation, and education cause it’s an on going process. In addition positivity and a unwavering value system is a must. Please remember if you don’t stand for something you will fall for anything. ~Balance Due.

Social Engagement

Social interaction has different definitions to different people, some people’s idea of what a friend truly is may differ. But it’s scientifically proven that social interaction from a physical perspective in the (real world) is critical to good physical health. Real Social Interaction is associated with a stronger immune system in some instances you can fight off colds, flu and some types of cancer. Interacting with others can boost feelings of well-being and decrease feelings of depression. Please keep in mind you must have a solid base of social support, good relationships with family, friends and community for these health benefits to reign true. And relationships do require lots of effort in real-time there is no such thing as a quick internet relationship. Virtual love is easily replaced…

Stress Kills

Stress wears down your body, your health, and your energy. It also affects your emotions. When you’re tightly wound up, you are more likely to react to situations than to respond with reason. As a result we think stress can if not managed properly cause a myriad of different emergency health issues such as opioid addiction, homelessness and suicide. Our work is vital to the community please help us with your support whether it’s sharing, volunteering or donating all participation is greatly appreciated. God Bless

Tyrone is gone too soon

This is a song about a man who had a gambling addiction. The situation got so bad he emerged himself in drugs to try and dull the pain and his problems spiraled even further out of control. Maybe if he wasn’t so ashamed of his transgressions he would have asked for help and rectified the situation. Never be to proud or embarrassed to seek help nobody comes perfectly packaged. We live, we learn, we love, we laugh. We weren’t designed to function all by ourselves we need each other for support. It says in the Bible 1 John 3:17 but if anyone has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need yet closes his heart against him how does god’s love abide in him.

Reinvent Yourself

Reinvent yourself we’re all under construction make necessary changes and keep and it moving in a healthy direction. In life as we age, we face all sorts of challenges whether in business or in private. Sometimes in life we keep things, we delete things and we add things, but we still must keep the engine humming in order to keep that shine. We all must make some adjustment and continue to elevate our consciousness it all starts with the mind then the body follows. We all have challenges of different magnitudes we can use the mental acuity we all are blessed with to think outside of ourselves and face the challenges head on and grow in the process. We can only do that with self-reflection, discipline and fearlessness sometimes it’s good to think and step outside the box and take a completely different approach to learning and presenting. A drop in the water makes waves without the drop the water stands still. Let’s take this journey together folks. https://m.soundcloud.com/user-521556783/the-balance-due-podcast-intro
