How To Live An Amazing Life

I posted a status on fb and twitter this morning about how I live such an amazing life because I felt such joy and emotional bliss. I couldn’t keep it in. Well, I felt a little negativity coming my way so I just wanted to take a few moments and describe how I live an amazing life independent of my situations.
First, let’s be real. In the natural, I am not balling out of control, I am chipping away at my debt (on my way to being debt free), I have to take my car to shop, trust, I have real life problems and challenges. However, amiss all those situations, I live a life so amazing that people are envious. Why?
Because the part of my life that is amazing is based on an intrinsic value that flows from the inside out. Without that inner spirit, we can have the same problems and challenges and you would be ready to jump off a click and feel like garbage. I have been working on developing my inner man for years and now it has grown to a point to where, I can recognize real situations (i.e. having a bill that you can’t pay or a family member doing something crazy), decide my action, deal with the situation but maintain a level of joy because my inner man feeds my emotional state rather than being fed by my outward situations.
It is a learned ability that comes with growth and inner maturity, but if I can have it, so can you! Here are a few steps to develop your inner man/woman:
1. Realize that you are able to read this note, really think about that, this very second someone in the world just died and it wasn’t you.
2. Realize that no matter how messed up your house, car, job maybe – you have one. That appreciation for the smallest of things is the next step in developing your inner person.
3. Look back on all other crazy, ridiculous challenges that you have made it through and realize this too shall pass.
4. Surround yourself with people with a strong inner man/woman, you can tell them because they do not talk about people, they are not negative, they are comfortable with who they are and where they are but moving forward to future goals.
5. Follow me on http://twitter.com/calvinwilliams lol! Be blessed.

PS. For those who believe in Christ, finding an amazing bible teaching, leader developing, kingdom minded, accountability enforcing, standard having church will not only help but accelerate your inner man/woman.


Amen. That was a great article. I am firm believer that there is a lot of power in positive thinking. No matter the situation
