Have you ever wondered when you will ever catch a break? Breaks are recognized and acted upon not caught. It is in encouraging the heart that one gathers the courage to take hold of life. Life will always be filled with ups and downs. Sometimes you get hit by a wave....sometimes you ride the wave. Regardless, the ups and downs of life will come. You must win the battle of the mind.
What is the battle of the mind? Two things...The constant temptation to quit and give up or the constant temptation to be negative and critical. You hold the power to help motivate another person to move forward. By helping another person to succeed you have open doors for your success. People will either look at you as a giver or a taker. It is not a sign of weakness to give encouraging words.
Everyone has made mistakes. Everyone needs words of affirmation. So how to do help others win the battle of the mind? Follow these steps:
1. Be consist ant
2. Never leave
3. Always speak words of life
You must be consist ant with encouraging words. People want to be real. They just want a chance but sometimes the fog gets too thick. What navigates anyone through the fog is a consistant word of encouragement. The spoken word of encouragement is the life giving force behind true success.
Never leave the side of one who has been has bee assaulted by life. I am reminded of a young lady who had been sexually assaulted. After the event her greatest fear was rejection from friends family and most importantly the one she loved and called her fiance. All of her friends refused to abandon her. Her fiance stayed by her side and helped her recover. They got married and had beautiful children.
Always speak words of life and affirmation. If a person is broken because of wrong choices then encouraging words can help a person face and correct the errors that have been creating roadblocks. If a person is broken because life has been unfair then encouraging words can comfort and strengthen a person to dig in and overcome. If a person is ready to transition from this life to the next then encouraging words can help one let go and experience a new world.
Encouragement is huge. Find someone today and encourage their hearts. You will make the world better one person at a time.
Be Encouraged,
Rick
