Knowledge is Power When it Reduces Fear
By Eugene Morgan Anxiety can simply be induce by the unknown. Taking a test, speaking in front of an audience, and flying on a plane for the first time can easily induce anxiety. If one simply prepares for a test by studying way before the day of the test, then one’s anxiety is greatly reduced, […]
The Power of One
Post Written By Eugene Morgan The power of one means we focus on one task at a time as oppose to focusing on multiple tasks. If we focus on doing one skill and master it, then we can learn to focus on another skill until we have a build up of skills. When it comes […]
Leave Your Past Uncertainties in The Past
Post Written By Eugene Morgan If we have uncertainties leave them in the past because they belong in the past. Our anxiety about our future is really about our uncertainties of the past. We must reconcile our past so we can move forward into our futures. It’s all right to look at our past uncertainties […]

Focus On One Task
Post Written By Eugene Morgan If we want to get things done, we must then focus. When we focus, we lose the things that are distracting. Distraction only delays our process of completing or finishing a task. It’s amazing how much we can get done, only if we focus on the task. Working on too many […]
Experience is Far Better than Reward

A journey is something we experience for a certain time.The greatest journey is about experiencing life and how we want to experience […]
Attitude Changes Things
Post Written By Eugene Morgan It is necessary to make a change in our attitude or to adopt a new frame of reference if we want a change to occur. If we’re in the same place we were last year, then we must consider changing our attitude. If we dislike the situation we put ourselves […]
Bringing Down Rigidity and Uplifting Possibilities
Post Written By Eugene Morgan When we bring down rigidity, we can see clearly the direction we want to go in our lives. Sometimes we frame things in a way we can’t see the alternatives. When we exercise our minds to look for alternatives, our scope of the event enlarges. When we enlarge our scope, […]
Let Go Of Perfectionism
Post Written By Eugene Morgan When we let go of perfectionism, we see and accept the world as it is. Imposing perfectionism only creates anger and keeps other emotions down. If we see things as they are that’s where perfectionism lies. A rose with thorns is perfect the way it is. Thorns protect the rose […]
Create Your Own Freedom
Post Written By Eugene Morgan We ultimately have to choose what direction we want to go in our lives. If we dislike our present situation we’re in, then it is up to us to change our situation. We have to rely on ourselves to make choices. Sometimes we don’t see that we have choices. When […]
Stop Dreaming Starting Doing
Post Written by Eugene Morgan We all have dreams for a better life. We want most of our dreams to come true. But dreams alone can’t make things come true in our lives. We want to keep the dream alive. Sometimes a dream is the only thing we can cling on to keep us going. […]
When Resistance is winning
Post Written By Eugene Morgan We can get frustrated at times, when we’re resisted to new changes; changes that we want in our life. At our work places, change is inevitable, although we express resistance a little, we do eventually readjust our behavior to the changes. One motivating factor is that we want to keep […]
Don’t Underestimate Your Potential
Post Written By Eugene Morgan Sometimes we are so quick to criticize our work. We don’t give ourselves a chance or room to grow into our potentials. We place such high standards on ourselves that we get easily frustrated with ourselves when we don’t meet them. When we get frustrated we lose focus on what […]

Center First Then Act
Post Written By Eugene Morgan “Stay centered by accepting whatever happens to you. This is the ultimate.” ~Chuang Tzu It’s easier to react than to be proactive in a difficult situation.
