GENSHAI

Genshai /gen-SHÄ«/ : Never treat another person in a manner that would make them feel small - Including yourself


I learned this word from a friend, and it reminds me to always believe in myself. I have a very supportive family yet I was still confronted by feeling of unworthiness 8 years ago. I know its weird to come back to this story again but i cant seem to move on. I have burn this in the bonfire several times, cried about this many times thinking that I am fine after each cry. Since then my confidence slide down and even one of the important people in my life left me. But even if this happened, I snapped out of it and live a new life.  I always ask for God's Grace of forgiveness to move on from this incident but I  seem to not find the forgiveness for what I have done. I tried to forgive others but not myself. Its a mean reality, and so with this I am forgiving myself for not seeing that my temper can be used against me. and that this is outside my comfort zone, the more that I have to be-friend my temper. In learning this word I came to realize that I have to move forward and build a new confidence better than what i previously have. With the love of my family and community I know that in no time, Ill have this confidence again, the brilliance of idea and the feeling of  success will be seen again in my aura. With this new gained self respect, I can give the same respect to all the people around me.

Habits to change

I am currently fascinated with the thought of having a new me but I noticed that I lack the push to make it consistently and create the new habit.

After reading Bos blog about his 30 days challenge, I am inspired again to make myself better. I am currently into my 7th day for my 3333 meal plan and I am hopeful that after these 30 days, a better and healthier body will be evident for everyone to be inspired. Part of my meal is to always have, fruits, vegetables, protein and carbohydrates. Initially you can think this is not a diet because it is complete with the food groups, but do your own due diligence, it is vey important to have them complete, what we need to learn is the portions and the types of food that we eat. To help me stick to this  new habit, I will list down the reasons why I am changing this old habit of eating unhealthy.

1.      I have always been fat and I always dreamt of a fabulous life, pretty clothes, cool shoes and bags. It is always better to dress up as slim as compared to bloated.

2.      I want to live longer, since I still dont have a family yet, I need to be healthy more to be with them more

3.      I want my family to adapt a healthy lifestyle for them to live longer as well

4.      I have many things to do..I want to live more of life and live by example.

how i came to love brown rice


It was almost a month or more since i tried again eating brown rice. I heard that it is healthier than white rice. and now that I read some info, i am now a believer of whole grains. I found that it have more benefits aside from fiber, the phyto chemicals in the grains which is removed when it is polished to white rice is a big difference. You may check this article to learn more.

In  my own experience, to adapt to this change, we have to be ready. White rice have this distinct characteristic of making you eat more and the moment you tried brown rice you won't feel that anymore. Maybe it is because of the fiber that makes you easily feel full. But to enjoy this, the way to prepare brown rice should be learned. Years ago, we tried eating brown rice but then we revert back because we cannot cook it well. It absorbs more water and it takes more time cooking to have that soft texture of rice. You should also prepare that it taste lesser than white rice. You can be accustomed to it and knowing its benefits, you will really try to live with it.

And all it takes is a decision, never mind the feelings.

May I always be true to my words, Lord. May my actions reveal that I am Your disciple.

 

I am a kinesthetic person and a big part of my decisions are based on feelings and the reason why I have a hard time in making decisions. But once I made the decision its final. As I remember, in choosing my course in college, it was actually a decision by my mom and me. It was based on my love for mathematics but not really a dream to become an engineer. I did well; finish my college just in time. I joined in one if the organizations in the campus, I was not active at the start but since I joined in already after a few months of resting, I attend in all its activity until I graduate and even until today after 10 years I am still supportive to my 2nd family. Even in my other organizations, I still keep my commitments and give time especially to the major events. In my current organization, I am experiencing some challenges. As I have said, there is no option of quitting, only moving forward. I know I can be considered rest5ing for a while but soon Ill be back stronger; just like having 1 step backward and 2 steps forward. I have already decided 2 years ago, I may be feeling uneasy and lost at present but I know that with Gods grace I will soon be enlightened and claim the success in-store for me. I will live up to the culture of Nuskin and be a force for Good. One of the reasons why we want to be wealthy is to help more people, to make our country first world. There is a long way to go so I must set aside my feelings and be responsible for my own success. This way I can offer my help to others!

Cheers!
