I WILL SEEK WISDOM

Posted on 29. Oct, 2009 by admin in Personal Development

Knowing that wisdom waits to be gathered. I will actually search it out. My past can never be changed, but I can change the future by changing my actions today. I will change my actions today!  I will train my eyes and ears to read and listen to books and recordings that bring about positive changes in my personal relationships and a greater understanding of my fellow man.  No longer will I bombard my mind with materials that feed my doubts and fears. I will read and listen only to what increases my belief in myself and my future.

I will seek wisdom. I will choose my friends with care.

I am who my friends are. I speak their language,and I wear their clothes.  I share their opinions and their habits.  From this moment forward, I will choose to associate with people whose lives and lifestyles I admire. If I associate with chickens, I will learn to scratch at the ground and squabble over crumbs.  If I associate with eagles, I will learn to soar to great heights.  I am an eagle… it is my destiny to fly.

I will seek wisdom. I will listen to the counsel of wise men!

The words of a wise man are like raindrops on dry ground. They are precious and can be quickly used for immediate results. Only the blade of grass that catches a raindrop will prosper and grow.  The person who ignores wise counsel is like the blade of grass untouched by the rain…soon to wither and die. When I counsel with just myself, I can make decisions only according to what I already know. By counseling with a wise man, I add his knowledge and experience to my own and dramatically increase my success.

I will seek wisdom I will be a servant to others!

A wise man will cultivate a servant’s spirit, for that particular attribute attracts people like no other.  As I humbly serve others, their wisdom will be freely shared with me.

Often the person who develops a servant’s spirit becomes wealthy beyond measure.  Many times a servant has the ear of the king and a humble servant often becomes a king, for he is the popular choice of the people.  He who serves the most grows the fastest.

I will become a humble servant… I will not look for someone to open my door… I will look to open the door for someone. I will not be distressed when no one is available to help me.. I will be excited when I am available to help.

I will be a servant to others.  I will listen to the counsel of wise men.  I will choose my friends with care.

I will seek wisdom!
