Through BROKENNESS - A Life Worth Living

-


BROKENNESS is a horrible feeling yet at the same time can be the beginning of a fantastic journey or rebuilding process. When we are Broken, all distractions have been removed and we're almost at our wits end. This is where there's nowhere else to go but to be open and honest with ourselves. This is where 'change' can take place within us.

 For the Young Cubicle Soldier, this can be a hard lesson learned. Very few people actually enjoy pain while most of us do whatever we can to avoid painful situations at all costs. Yet, as sure as death and taxes visit us all, so also will trials and challenges.  Running from or avoiding responsibility is a sure way to remain stunted in our maturity. The process of pushing through something that is bigger than ourselves stretches us and being stretched although not fun can be extremely rewarding.

 Your friends and loved ones may not recognize that there is even an issue brewing inside you. In truth, no one aside from yourself and God can possibly know what you are going through. They may have an understanding of the situation but no one lives in your head but you. Because of this, it may be that you are misunderstood in your trials. This is not unusual but perfectly normal.



     1. Brokenness can leave you alone with your thoughts and with God: It is wise to take advantage of this time of reflection that has been forced on you.


     2. Brokenness can leave you hungry and desperate for something more: While reflecting on your past make a list of ways you can shape your future. Don't be afraid to consider some old ideas that were discarded. They may be important now.



     3. True Brokenness should make you want to stop pretending:  Take off the image that you present to the world and embrace the changes you know must be made. This may be the most difficult part of the process but you must be honest with yourself to achieve any real and lasting growth. 





Whether we like it or not our trials, struggles and hardships can become the most effective learning tools that we can ever experience. We should harness that negativity and use it for the good in life to propel us forward to the next level.



You can be You, reach your Dreams serve God & still Enjoy Life

As the World Changes I Remain Flexible

The following is from my Ebook  Now It's My Turn  on Amazon. Setting Goals in Detail The wisest man who ever lived, King Solomon, said, “Where there is no vision, the people perish” (Proverbs 29:18 KJV). Gaining a clear and precise vision brings life to our innermost being. Having no vision at all, not knowing the direction we should take, and having no dreams takes life from us because we have nothing of any consequence to live for. Basically, find your purpose in life, and you will truly have a life worth living. Some people know exactly what they want and are meant to do from a very young age. Others need to focus and experience different situations both positive and negative. I found out from trial and error and from seeking God what my personal mission in life is. Perhaps your journey is similar. Your purpose in life could be to run for public office, or it could be to raise responsible children who will go out into the world and make a difference. It could be nothing more th

TIPS TO CLEARER THINKING #2

Eat Less Sugar I used to be a sugar addict until I was forced to change my habits and eat less sugary but more healthier foods. It was then that I noticed how much clearer my brain functioned. I mean I can literally see farther, focus longer, even a higher tolerance for pain. (this is just me) One good idea would be to replace sugary foods with fruit. Fruit is still sweet, but it isn't processed sugar. These days, blueberries, blackberries and raspberries are my personal substitute for candy. Also, starches like bread, pasta, potatoes and rice can also have the same affect on your body as eating sugar directly. There is no substitute for fresh vegetables. Next time you feel sluggish and want to grab something sweet for a quick pick me up, I challenge you to have some basic chicken soup or any vegetable soup with a good strong broth will do.....I dare you! #youngcubiclesoldier You can be You, reach your Dreams serve God & still Enjoy Life Now It's My Turn
