On Earth, there are 8.7 million living species, (National Geographic) varieties of plants, species of land animals, sea life, insects, and birds, excluding humans. Everything on Earth is alive, including the Earth itself. Our minds are alive with constant thoughts and ideas. Neurons (nerve cells) use both electrical charges and chemicals called ions to communicate with each other even when we are asleep. Human beings by nature, are caring and nurturing. Daily changes in our environment challenge us to grow and learn. These changes can be physiological, characterized by feelings of emotion, or psychological, characterized by thought. All living things on earth mature and later die. Living things originally produced on earth are born of seeds for continued growth and everlasting life. Everything you require is right here in your capable hands. How convenient is that? Often, people have accustomed belief systems that do not work. Diane Ravitch a historian of an education policy analyst, and a research professor at New York University’s Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development said:
“Sometimes the most brilliant and intellectual minds do not flourish on standardized test because they do not have standardized minds.”
Trust & Integrity
One size doesn’t fit all, and for this reason, clarity comes extremely late. Time lost isn’t necessarily a bad thing, so long as you have a goal or something worth waiting on. Without goals or something worthwhile, it’s simply time lost. Reason you must increase in knowledge (Proverbs 1:5). The true currency in this world isn’t money, but trust. Without trust, what do we have? There is honor even among thieves. Trust is a vital component and is the glue in all performing teams, marriages, businesses, and life. Trust is earned through action because it’s a verb. A person’s character is more important than income, infamy, knowledge, or color.
“We look for three things when we hire people. We look for intelligence, we look for initiative or energy, and we look for integrity. And if they don’t have the latter, the first two will kill you, because the last thing you need is a knowledgeable, energetic person you can’t trust.” ~ Warren Buffet

Mastering The Monsters
There are 2 significant villains human beings need to overcome. The first is pain, and the second is fear. If you can master your mind, thus you can master your life. All tangible and intangible materials come from the mind. It begins as a tiny spark or idea and it gets fashioned into a reality. An example would be a tree log being fashioned into a table or chair.
PAIN, according to the International Association for the Study of Pain, defines pain as “an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with, or resembling that associated with actual or potential tissue damage.” In medical diagnosis, they regard pain as a symptom of an underlying condition. Chronic pain influences a predicted 86 million American adults according to WebMD. However, when elevated helps us to function at peak performances.
FEAR is False Evidence Appearing Real and a double-edged sword. Fear can warn you of pending dangers, but it can also cripple you. “The reason things seem risky is that you don’t know what you are doing” ~ Warren Buffett. Here is where increasing in knowledge helps take on any task going forward.
Willpower
Your willpower can overcome obstacles, and build confidence, and strong useful habits. Your willpower can alleviate both pain and fear or create it. Most pain is treated through many methods. The most appropriate method depends on the situation. How you choose to create, manage, or ease is in your capable hands. A better definition of the willpower, therefore, is ‘the Power Of Self-direction. The Will may be now [defined] as a power to choose. Mastering behaviors with willpower is where all happiness resides. If you have a dream, believe you can achieve it, believe you deserve it, and start to fulfill it. Make today the day you stop questioning yourself. Have the courage and discipline to pursue it.
