    Has self-pity sent you an invitation to be their next guest of honor? Don't do it! Send that invitation back marked, “return to sender!” Self-pity is an incredibly sneaky destiny thief because it wants to validate you in your place of regret, remorse, shoulda-woulda-coulda, and make you comfortable in your wallowing that prevents you from moving forward. So if you allowed self-pity to walk you into your New Year, it's not too late to shake it loose and start again, anew! Join me in Breakthrough Land, so you can show self-pity the door and step into that new place of opportunity.

    Destiny thief series: the thief of things lost

    Many of us lament over things lost--not necessarily material things, but more along the way of emotional, mental, spiritual, opportunities, and more. Speaking of way, lamenting over things lost can put you in the wrong way or cause you to go in the wrong direction. Furthermore, it's essential to dig deep to determine if those things were indeed yours to own or lay claim to before you file a ticket at your figurative lost and found depot. Need a better understanding of this matter? Great! Breakthrough Land has one waiting for you.

    The power of pairing self-control and discernment

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 27, 2021 17:17


    When certain individuals, groups of people, or teams get together under the right conditions for the right reasons, they can create some amazing and powerful synergy. Synergy is that something extra created or produced which is greater than what each individual alone can do or generate. The same is true of words. When we pair certain words together and practice walking in that pairing toward an intentional and directed purpose, major breakthroughs occur. A much-needed example for such a time as this is combining self-control and discernment. Want to learn more?

    A tale of two perspectives, including a take on the cancel culture

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 19, 2021 20:08


    Perspective produces prospects, both fruitful and fruitless, depending on your viewpoint. According to Webster's Dictionary, perspective is "a mental view or prospect." What mental view are you looking through? If your view is positive, proper, and clear, then you will find abounding prospects you would never have otherwise seen to glean! However, if your perspective is dim, cloudy, or skewed, then you're walking by hidden opportunities waiting to be discovered. Speaking of perspective: one of the worst productive-perspective-robbers is the cancel culture, which I address in today's close. This being said, join me in Breakthroughland as we travel to the portion where perspectives are waiting to provide you with prolific prospects ripe for the picking!

    Direct your diligence

    Webster defines diligence as "steady, earnest, and energetic effort: devoted and painstaking work and application to accomplish an undertaking." Diligence is not easy, and many times it is painstaking. Diligence is a noun; therefore, it needs action to be activated. How do you activate this? By directing your diligence with intentionality into those areas where you have been feeling restricted and experiencing resistance. Diligence is a force, a substance, a weapon to be used to break through in those areas of your life that have been holding you back. Want to learn more? Then press through to join me in Breakthroughland so you can make diligence work for you. Come on, let's go!

    Webster's Dictionary defines grace as a "disposition to or an act or instance of kindness, courtesy, or clemency; a temporary exemption." There is too much spewing of vinegar (bitterness, wrong intentions, cruelty, wrong-doing, public shaming),and not enough releasing of honey (grace, good will, covering shame). Whereas withholding grace stunts and sidetracks our individual and collective growth, operating in and giving ourselves and each other grace causes us all to grow. We, as human beings, are messy. So it's time we look past the mess in each other, and illuminate the treasure with the galore of grace. I know where there is a great gusher of grace; so come on, Let's go! We are heading to Breakthrough Land!

    There is a lot of noise right now in our collective community of humanity, which serves to impede our ability to identify, see, hear, and meet the need. When we are unwilling or unable to see and meet the need because we are so clouded or focused on the noise, we continue to perpetuate and contribute to a toxic cycle of unmet needs, unresolved issues, and unhealed hurts, which diminishes all of us. The current noise generated from the echo chamber of misunderstanding, offense, and unreconciled differences that is resulting from the chasms of black lives matter and all lives matter is deafening. So, how do we look past the noise in order to identify, meet, and reconcile the need? Meet me in Breakthough Land to find out! Come on, let's go!

    When we were growing up, my two brothers and my sister and me, we would always try to get our mom to tell us who was her favorite. Whenever any of us would ask her who was her favorite, she would always respond "the one who needs me the most at that moment." I have agonized over these past weeks to find the right words to say, and I have struggled, because no words can ever be the right words in proportion to the atrocious act of barbarism that has been committed against Mr. George Floyd, Mr. Ahmaud Arbery, and countless other Black Americans. Right now, the black community needs us the most. They are our favorites right now in this time of great need. We owe it to our precious black brothers and sisters to lift them up high and comfort them. And because of this, Black Lives need to matter most right now. To my wonderful black community, I am so sorry. And I am here for you. Black Lives DO Matter, and they matter to me. I love you, and I pray God's Peace upon you. God bless you, Matthew #blacklivesmatter
