Word of the Week

I introduced the Word of the Week to help us improve our working knowledge of the English language. Your part if you choose to participate is to be aware of and use each word for the entire week whenever the opportunity presents itself. This way we will all increase our vocabulary and our knowledge of the English language supplying us with a very effective tool to utilize on our road to success.

temerity

te·mer·i·ty /təˈmerəti/ noun

the quality of being confident and unafraid of danger or punishment.

From a poem entitled “It’s No Surprise”

“Eyes exuding sincerity,

understanding, temerity,

is why I love you.”

Work Efficiently not Harder

I am very grateful for the opportunities that await me and I attract through right thinking. It is important for us to understand that it is not hard work which produces opportunity leading to success but right thinking and the doing of things in an efficient manner. There are those who seemingly work very hard but to no avail and others who seem to do very little yet prosper in every way. I know of a person who, in their chosen profession, has the potential to easily make over one million dollars each year. This person works very hard many hours each day yet gets nowhere. This person is scattered, their focus is all over the place chasing opportunity after opportunity but always creating and trying to solve some crisis. This person is totally driven by their external environment and circumstance. To those who function on the competitive plane more opportunity and success would appear to come out of working harder but this is not so. Life is about balance not hours of hard work. We are to do all we can each day in an efficient manner but not try to do a weeks work in one day. No man on his death bed ever wishes he had spent more time on hard work and making money.

It is true awareness is key and opportunity must be acted on when presented. It is important not to worry about or chase missed opportunity for it often means another better opportunity is down the road for those who focus on doing all they can in an efficient manner. There is no lack of opportunity for opportunity is always there and attracted from within by the right thinking of those who operate on the creative plane.

On focus – It is important not to focus in too many directions at one time or we risk doing things in an inefficient manner and the opportunity is lost. Just as the magnifying glass is only efficient in the opportunity of creating fire when totally focused on one point so each of our tasks must be completed before moving to the next. This is not to say you cannot focus on more than one thing each day. Remember life is about balance and it is right to focus on the different aspects of your life each day in its time. This is where awareness is key.
