Inspiration Monday: The Power of Words

How important are words to us in our life time? Seemingly, they’re very important; however we may develop the tendency to refrain from going pass basic vocabulary. If we can freely and easily convey our needs and wants, that is satisfactory.  The amazing thing about words is that they’re all around us. There is nothing that exists in the known sphere of things that doesn’t have a name by way of word.

To make it better, within any given name is a broader set of words deepening our understanding of the original word or name. So what is the aim of this post? I once heard that the ability of a person to freely express them self and be successful was directly tied to their word usage. In the same report it stated that most individuals with disciplinary problems have a limited vocabulary. This isn’t to say that just because one’s vocabulary is extensive they’re more successful than the person who doesn’t have an extensive vocabulary. Nor does it say that if one’s vocabulary is limited they will outright have disciplinary issues.

However, the factor of vocabulary proves to be a huge part in a person’s development and path in life. A person’s words are usually indicators of the path they’re on and the road that they’re traveling. The late success expert, Jim Rohn once said, “Vocabulary enables us to interpret and to express. If you have a limited vocabulary, you will also have a limited vision and a limited future.”  This is wisdom coming from a giant and genius in self-improvement.

When I acquired this knowledge I acted upon it by purchasing a dictionary/thesaurus. There is joy in discovering new words to add to your vocabulary. I’ve found joy in learning new words, and finding new ways to express myself. There is life and death in the power of the tongue. Power equates to the ability to get results. In the usage of our words we have the ability to get results and those results aim towards success. I encourage you on this inspired Monday to find one word today and add it to your vocabulary. This is inspiration Monday. Be inspired to do great things.

Limits are physical; Limitations are psychological- Denis Waitley

Physical limits are designed to set order in the earth; psychological limits are designed to set order in the person.

Today, let’s ask ourselves what laws have we passed to govern our inner person?

Remember, whatever legislation that we have allowed to pass at our highest office (mind), our subconscious mind will uphold the law, performing its duty to serve and to protect.

You have the power to veto any psychological bill and you also have the power to write in new laws to govern your inner world. Your inner nation must be able to have great foreign relations, and the foreign is the outside world. Let’s take note from a great document that reads:

“That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government…”

Decide today to set new laws (beliefs) that will govern your inner nation, and construct right standing with foreign nations (people). Your diplomatic duty:

• Walk tall, head up, and eyes up. Be confident
• Be courteous today and think about the other person
•  Smile. One smile is one seed planted in another’s life
• Think about the blessings and not the blemishing
• Choose a personal affirmation to repeat today: murmur, speak aloud, and ponder on
• Set a goal to accomplish by the end of the week
• And lastly enjoy life,  it’s never as bad as it seems
