The Pros of Patience and Being Selfish

January 17, 2014 by R. Mordant Mahon

“Have patience with all things, but, first of all with yourself.”

~Saint Francis de Sales~

Sitting in an office chair in the backyard of my friend EJ’s house, and my thoughts turn trippingly towards Patience.   Not your run-of-the-mill, garden-variety, patience-is-a-virtue Patience either.  Nope.

Not for today.

Not for you.

For you I save the good stuff.  The stuff that runs a little deeper.  More personal.

I want to discuss having patience with yourself and your process.  Cutting yourself some slack as you begin or continue on your path towards self-actualization.  It’s easy to pinpoint what needs doing when you think about patience with everyone outside your personal bubble.  There are steps you can take to ease the pain of their annoying stimuli, no matter how much they are exasperating you at present.  If all else fails—the smiling, the prayer, the counting to 10—you can always up and walk away.  Any of these techniques are done simply enough and your world is set back in balance—if you put forth the effort it takes to keep everything flowing “merrily, merrily down the stream.”

Success Freaks #118 – Fear of Success

October 10, 2013 by Success Freaks

Is fear of success a real thing? If so, why are people so afraid of this beneficial thing they keep saying that want out of life? So many people unknowingly sabotage themselves without realizing it and then wonder why they’re not succeeding.

Fear of Success means being afraid of the very thing you desire. Giving into that fear will keep you safely ensconced in that snuggly-safe bed you are making for yourself by not taking the steps necessary to live a bigger, badder, better, more life. Moving beyond this self-imposed mediocrity means giving up what you’re comfortable with. It means leaving your comfort zone and taking enough of a leap of faith to take a closer look at what you need to change in order to be successful. [Read more…]
