The nihilism, hopelessness and frustration we see in our communities is the result of our ignorance of self, not understanding who and what we are. We have been taught to loath and denigrate ourselves. We think we are who our adversaries say we are and depict us as being. We have the power to define ourselves for ourselves which in itself can be a compelling act of empowerment. Compelling because it demands follow through and follow up.
Energy follows thought.
Our thoughts are powerful things. Our ideation and imagination are the catalysts for our feelings, physiological responses, actions, behaviors, habits, lifestyles and our quality of life. So you see our thinking is very powerful. In fact, ideas rule. We are powerful beings no question about it.
