The purpose of this podcast episode is to learn to be content or satisfied (Peaceful) with our lives. To understand that when you change your PERCEPTION of the words you speak and seek their true meaning, you find yourself REDEFINING them. This opens the door to living freely, and on your own terms. And this is “The Great Contentment”.
“As I walked this morning I felt the wind on my face, the peeking sun ready to rise in south Florida and a school bus of children with their parents waving goodbye.
It got me thinking about my ancestors.
Waving bye for their children to be separated all day?
Would I do that?
Will I do that?
Why?
And then somehow my mind moved into a topic that I really feel encapsulates a lot of the issues and problems our western world face.
Being content with life :).
And how so much of what needs to change is simply acceptance and okay ness with what is present in our lives.
I call the impending wave of reality, “The Great Contentment” because it’s a movement.
Ideas spread like voices down the street.
One person to the next fainter and fainter the further you get, louder the closer.
But if everyone you know is experiencing it simultaneously then you have yourself a movement!
A new idea piercing the mind and opening the heart.
And so much of what is needed NOW in this moment is that.
Open minds and open hearts.
Contentment with your life is a way to experience this bliss.
Why?
Because Contentment is the state of “Peace or Happiness”…
Think about it.
How often do you say don’t be content or some variation of that…
Next time try saying, “Never be peaceful or happy”…
Sounds pretty silly right LOL!
And for the hustle narrative, the grind tribe, the MORE IS BETTER MOVEMENT.
You’re sprinting towards your own doom.
No one will remember your legacy unless you decide to step into the present moment and create something or build something worthy of being praised by all humanity.
So aim for NOW.
Aim for the moment.
Aim for contentment, or rather aim for being peaceful and happy.
Stop buying into the narrative that you need to “DO SO MUCH”.
The world doesn’t need more people going for home runs, it needs people who want to hit singles, doubles, triples.
It needs people who want to WALK together to build something better.
And you can do your part simply by bringing more contentment into your life.
Excuse me, I meant more peace and happiness.
If you don’t know where to find that, start with taking a breath and prioritizing the things that matter most in your heart, not in your head.
The Great Peacefulness…
Could you imagine?
A world of people genuinely excited and happy to be here and now and nowhere else.
A world of people who actually want to leave it better than they found it.
A world of people working together.
A world of Peace.
Contentment is underrated.
Start now.
Presence, Peace & Power be with you.
Legends Find a Way 💫”
My question to you this morning is...
- Can I be content with my life?! Why / why not?
Take some time to really reflect on it. Your Destiny is to learn to be content with WHO you are.
Presence, Peace & Power be with you on your journey.
