Peace on Earth Begins with You

/in /by

Your important role for Peace on Earth and BIGG Success“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.”
Luke 2:14

That’s the message of the angels to the shepherds.
It’s the message of Christmas.

Now we’re not trying to convert anybody so please bear with us. But in this simple message lies the power to change the world for the better.

Creating peace on earth is a three-step process. And you have an important role to play. Because it all begins with you.

Recognize a power greater than yourself

We believe in God. You don’t have to. It’s your choice.

Just believe in something bigger than yourself, be it the power of nature or something else.

This step helps you approach the process with the proper humility.

Peace without begins with peace within

Christmas is the official celebration of the birth of Jesus. Jesus said, “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

Do you see the implication? You can’t love your neighbor if you don’t first love yourself.

The same goes for peace. We can’t hope for peace on earth until people have peace of mind.

So start with yourself.

Peace of mind comes from living your core values.

Peace of mind results from doing all you can do to be all you can be.

If we would all focus on internal peace, external peace would surely follow.

Good will to all

In fact, it follows naturally in the message from the angels. Did you notice good will followed peace?

This is the higher calling. Once you have shown good will to yourself by seeking peace of mind, you can begin serving others.

In so doing, you’ll create good will. Good will is the most precious asset you can have. It builds your social capital.

Add value for others and you’ll create value for yourself. That’s BIGG success!

We wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas!

Destination Peace of Mind: These 4 Things Insure Success

Yesterday, we discussed our favorite definition of success. It came from the book
They Call Me Coach by the great John Wooden. To paraphrase:

Success is peace of mind which is the result
of giving your all to reach your full potential.

Today we’ll look at the four things you must do daily for your peace of mind.

  1. Always value your values.
    We almost didn’t include this, because it seems so obvious. It should be an unstated assumption, right? Then, we remembered what happens when you assume. Remember that old saying?

If your actions conflict with your core values, you definitely won’t have peace of mind! You have to respect the person you see in the mirror.

  1. Get over today tomorrow.
    If you feel good about today, congratulations! Revel in it … tonight. If you feel lousy about today, lick your wounds … tonight.

But when you wake up in the morning, it’s a new day! So wipe the slate clean and get on getting on to all you know you can become.

  1. All you can do is all you can do, but all you can do is what you must do.
    Let’s dissect this sentence. The first half is your comfort. The second half is your challenge.

Take comfort even if you fell short of your mark. You can’t possibly give more than “all”. You should feel good about your effort. But wait!

The challenge is giving your “all” because success does comes with a price. “All” is a pretty high bar! Only you know if you truly did give everything. The worst person to lie to is yourself. That’s a recipe for perpetual failure.

Did you give your all today? If the answer is yes, congratulations. If no, tomorrow is a new day. You get to try again.

  1. Take it to the limit.
    Most of us have an inherent desire to grow. Otherwise, we get bored. Growth occurs at the point where what you know intersects with what you don’t know. As you push yourself beyond that point, you grow. And with growth comes meaning. You feel fulfilled. You are at peace.

Our quote today is by the legendary baseball player George Moriarty.

“Who can ask more of a man, than giving all within his span?
Giving all, it seems to me, is not so far from victory.”

So give your all today, for your peace of mind.

By the way, if you listen to today’s show, you’ll hear our friend “Ted” reading this quote. We think you’ll find success quotes are much more fun this way. You may even want to get in on the act! Check out our BIGG Quotes page for details.

In our next blog, we’ll take a new approach to finding your dream. It’s a two-part series that will take you back to the past, and then look forward to your future.

Until then, here’s to your bigg success!
