What kills a lot of people from their destinies and purpose and plans in life is distractions. And when distractions come we have the power to welcome them or build a wall against them so that they dont get through. Distractions are always knocking in our lives, but we need to learn not to open the doors of our hearts to allow them because once we allow them in our lives, they are there to kill, steal and destroy the beautiful life we have.
We have different kinds of distractions in our lives. Some come through our circles, friends or family. They will want to influence you to do what they have accepted as normal and yet in your own life your values are against such. And the more you entertain the thought of what they are doing because you spend time with them you end becoming one of them doing the same things that are against your beliefs and values. Some distractions are from the little bad habits we keep on entertaining when we are alone thinking no one is looking at us thinking we are causing no harm. What you entertain little by little becomes part of your lifestyle because thats how addictions start. To let go of that small bad habit can take you a lifetime to overcome. We all know what causes distractions in our lives. We know what is holding us back and distracting us from focusing on our daily purpose in life.
Be aware of what is distracting you and put a stop when the thought comes. Dont entertain the thought of it because once you entertain the thought you are allowing it to influence you. You have the power to say NO to yourself when you feel that you are being distracted. You have the power to dominate what doesn’t serve you and influence it with positive thoughts. Strength is built when you learn to say NO to yourself when distractions come your way, practice self control everytime when the negative thought comes and you say NO and choose to replace and entertain positive and life giving thoughts.
