Failure Perspective

Rather than looking at failures as major disappointments, turn the loss into a gain. Change your perspective.

We all have failed at one time or another. I know in my life, I have failed many times. For a long time I had failure mentality. Since I was failing at things I tried to do, I considered myself a failure. If you are in that place today, I want to encourage you to change your thought process. Change your perspective. Just because you fail doesn’t mean you are a failure. Don’t internalize what happened, as to describe and define who you are. Change the way you look at what happened. Learn from the experience. Look at what you did and how you can change and grow. You are not a failure! You only become a failure when you give up and quit. Change your perspective about who you are. See yourself for the who you really are; a champion! You are the one who never gives up! You got this! Are you changing your failure perspective today?

A Right Perspective

The key is to do whatever it takes to gain proper perspective.

Are you going through a tough time today? Are you sitting on the sidelines of life? God is saying, “Get back in the game.” If a friend betrayed you, don’t go through life lonely. Go out and find some new friends. The right people are in your future. If you lost your job, don’t sit around complaining. Go out and find another job. When one door closes, God will always open another door. If you’re facing a health issue, fighting that sickness, don’t give up on life and start planning your funeral. Move away from that discouragement! When God sees you do your part, He will do His part. He will give you a new life. That means He will restore your health, give you new opportunities, new relationships. He will give you a new perspective. You will see that even though it’s painful, it is not the end. Even though it was unfair, it is not over. There is still life after the sickness, life after the divorce, life after the bad break. A full life is still in front of you. Do you have the right perspective today?

Correct Perspective

Obstacles, struggles, and setbacks are nothing more than a challenge for you to respond to with the right perspective.

Are you going through a difficult time today? We all experience setbacks and obstacles in this life, but don’t make the mistake of allowing those challenges to change your perspective. You can’t go around thinking that those problems are insurmountable because negative thinking will keep you messed up. Did you know that when you’re negative, you’re in agreement with the enemy? But when you have a positive attitude according to what the Word says, then you’re in agreement with God. You and God are a majority. When you agree with God, all things are possible. Today, instead of going around thinking about your problems, cast down those thoughts and start dwelling on the fact that God is on your side. Do you have the right perspective today?

Know the Truth

What is perceived to be true can often project a stronger image than the actual truth.

Are you going through a situation in your life that you don’t quite understand? During these uncertain seasons, it’s natural to question things in your mind. But in order to move forward, we have to look forward with our hearts. We have to look beyond the questions and continue to trust in what is true.  Understand that facts change every day. However, truth will always remain true. When you look at yourself and others, always look for the truth. What is the truth about you? What is the truth about that other person? Don’t let the facts ever get in the way of truth. Truth may look wrong, but your perspective may be off. Take the extra time to discover what is really true. You can stand on the truth at times. Facts will fail you. There is strength in knowing the truth. It may be painful at first, but knowing the truth will keep you in the tough times. Do you know the truth about you today?

Proper Perspective

Confidence, enthusiasm, and boldness overtake negative emotions as you become clear about what you are moving toward.

Perspective is the key. Having the right perspective is a result of confidence, enthusiasm and boldness. These attributes don’t change any situation, any circumstance, or issue. What does change is the way we see it, the way we evaluate it, and process it. When you have the right perspective, no matter what is going on in your life, then all will be clear. You can see so much more and so much clearly when you have the positive perspective. Insecurities will cloud your perspective and cause everything to be distorted. Look at everything through the truth perspective. Don’t let facts get in the way of the truth. Everything is not going to be fair, nice, sweet and right, but how it affects you is all in your perspective. Be confident, enthusiastic, and bold today as you move toward your destiny. Make sure you have the right perspective. How is your perspective today?

A Disciplined Life Blog/Podcast

I believe the best things in life are a result of discipline. When I operate from that perspective, disciplining myself to achieve gets easier.

For some people “discipline” is a bad word. However, without discipline you will never experience the life you desire. You will have momentary pleasure, but you will forfeit lasting fulfillment. When you experience the awesomeness of archiving a goal through discipline, it does get easier to discipline yourself in more areas. There are many people that never make the move to discipline themselves and they never have the life they really desire. Those are the people that go through life complaining and making excuses for not achieving. Be a person of discipline today. Start making conscious decisions that will lead you into a disciplined lifestyle. You will have fun, there is far more fun and enjoyment in a life that is disciplined. There is far less regret. Take your life to another level by being a disciplined guided life. Are you living a disciplined life today?

Your Perspective

I’ve disciplined myself to always see the positive in life. That perspective has become my way of life. Problem comes; then positive perspective follows.

Are you going through a difficult time today? We all experience setbacks and obstacles in this life, but don’t make the mistake of allowing those challenges to change your perspective. You can’t go around thinking that those problems are insurmountable because negative thinking will keep you all messed up. Did you know that when you’re negative, you’re in agreement with the enemy? But when you have a positive attitude, then you’re in agreement with God.  Today, instead of going around thinking about your problems, put down those thoughts and start focusing on the fact that God is on your side. Declare today that no weapon formed against you shall prosper. Declare that He is fighting your battles. Declare that victory is on its way. Get into agreement with God and pave the way for His supernatural blessing in your life. What is your perspective like today?

Right Perspective

Our perspective directly affects our attitude and more specifically, our default settings.

It’s easy to get focused on what’s wrong in life, what we don’t have, and how big our obstacles are. If we’re not careful, we’ll lose sight of all the good things God has done. We’ll take for granted our family, friends, health and the opportunities God has blessed us with. We’ll get so busy and stressed out that we won’t appreciate the gift of today. What’s happened? Our perspective has gotten off. Perspective is all about how we see a situation. There’s power in your perspective because you will draw into your life what you constantly meditate on. Business may be slow. The economy may be down. The wrong perspective is, “I’ll never make it. It’s just too much.” The right perspective is, “I know I have a purpose and reason for being here. I just need to keep working my process.” I encourage you to evaluate your perspective. Choose a good attitude no matter what is happening in your circumstances. Remember, as you set your perspective in the right direction, your life will follow. Do you have the right perspective and attitude today toward your future?

A Look at Perspective

Our perspective towards life determines life’s perspective towards us. Have a awesome day everyone be that positive light in someone’s life today.

Business may be slow. The economy may be down. The wrong perspective is, “I’ll never make it. It’s just too much.” The right perspective is, “God is supplying all of my needs. He said He would prosper me even in a desert.” Today, I encourage you to evaluate your perspective. Choose to lift your eyes to God the Father no matter what is happening in your circumstances. Remember, as you set your perspective in the right direction, your life will follow. When you keep an attitude of faith and expectancy, you open the door for His blessing in every area of your life. Do you need to change your perspective today?
