Effective with Purpose and Action
Hey World, 4WORDS is the Motion; Living To Be Known that is. It's your favorite Royal Service Man, Valet Del Roy. I am very thankful that you are here and just want to send some encouragement your way today.
So I've been listening to Proverbs. Each day I play from chapter 1 to whichever day I'm on in the month. So today it's chapter 20, then 1-20. I like proverbs and parables, wisdom literature, and poetry of all kinds. The practicality. The imagination. The principles.
So I find myself thinking in particular about one lately. Proverbs 12:14 written by King Solomon, which says "A man will be satisfied with good by the fruit of his words, and the deeds of a man's hands will return to him."
So I focus on three things:
A Man/Woman
His/Her Words
Man's(Their) Hands(work)
What does this have to do with being effective though? I'm so glad you ask.
We like to see results. We have intentions, and imagination. We think deeply and feel deeply and try hard. And still sometimes it seems like the things we intend are ineffective. Well, you're smart. You manage to live through each day so take that credit and smile. But being smart, thinking deeply, feeling deeply and speaking truth won't bring you the results you want without purpose and action.
Though we be satisfied with our words and our great brains, only the work or deeds of our hands and actions can give us results. And that needs some direction. A person x their words x their doing= effectiveness. And from there you can then see HOW effective those deeds are and then set your mind and words and actions properly to increase the effectiveness of your work.
You may want to have great relationships, communicate well, get your finances in order and accomplish a number of goals. But without a purpose that you can name and some work, all that "being satisfied with...his words" may just turn to a new proverb, 25:14 "Like clouds and wind without rain is a man who boasts of his gifts falsely."
Is your purpose to have solid principles and practices? Work it out.
I love y'all. Hope this encourages you and makes sense because my editing skills ain't so savvy. Lol
Let your mouth speak words to lead you = 4word Motion.

Master of All Life's Successes
First, let the next 14 seconds do what ever they want. Just take a deep breathe will ya, give my words a quick moment to catch up with your brain.
...relax tho...
Smile...
Today, is about all of the things You have done right lately.
No, I mean it.
I don't mean to give you any false hope.
I don't mean to sound corny, God forbid. (Although, you probably like it)
I don't mean to let you see it any other way.
Let's start with a random number. 2,000.
I picked 2,00 because that's the number of calories that are dieted for most package percentages. So now let's say that 2,000 is the number of successes one must complete daily. There is no list, no time schedule, no competition. This is good. I just want to recognize you for being successful so far today. We often focus on distant goals in life that can only be measures "if" we get there. Forget that for a second. Because in order to get there, we have to "get" from "here". And here is were we find great motivation. Every step, every bite, every small cased decision un-praised will get the shine today.
Bad weather, still made it. Mastered!
Emotional, but didn't have a nervous breakdown. Mastered!
Hungry, had to work through it. Mastered!
Rushed and didn't brush, still pressed on, wasn't late, found some gum, then some mouthwash.....MASTERED!
get me.
It's simple. Start with a small success and build upon it. Learn and practice a new small thing, daily. Like you done with the everyday task of living and you might just find that all the seemingly far reaching goals become as easy as waking up, rolling over into 25 push-ups, followed by a full drink of water and at least that's out the way, right? Oh, wait, I just do that. See. Mastered. Go keep being great!

Through Life's Journey
Saturday, January 28, 2017
FMF: Knowledge is Power, Just not Yours...
Glad to see you again in the written form. I love you for real. So I'm asking real questions, speaking real thoughts, thinking critically with the very small amount of information I've acquired over time. So... Alright then.
"Knowledge is Power" - I remember hearing that somewhere at an early age. At some point in time we all may have experienced the self image of OPO (Odd Person Out). For whatever reason, may it be, how smart you are or how tall you are, where you come from, what you wear, how you speak, your width, color, freckles, hair, smile, feet or family. You might've been well of or come from a wealthy or highly educated family, so, what? We're all people right? All have feeling? All want some love and security, right? Ok. glad we got all of the commonalities out. For me it was not knowing something.
I don't remember the first time I was told "You don't know". But I remember hating the feeling. I wanted to know everything. If you won't speak, I will. If you don't tell me, I'll find out anyway. There we're hundred of ways to piece together information about anything or anyone if one would just take a moment to put the pieces in their proper place.
It didn't matter if anyone knew that I knew what I knew... or how much.
But One thing that I understood. Knowing is much better than not knowing. It's within us, just ask to show a child how to do something "right"... "No, I can do it/ I know how to do it/ please let me do it"... Nothing wrong with ambition... I applaud you tenacious children. I love you.
But some of us in the world have not learned or let go of this bad habit. Receiving instruction. But, "knowledge is power"... yea. If it is actually knowledge of true form. I'm sorry that sounds so proper, it's not how I talk normally, I don't think anyway. Probably why this all sound like gibberjab. Ok, Lets zero in then.
We live in an information age right. So I've been told. But information is not knowledge. Stick with me. Knowledge is the sum of what can be known. For us, we narrow that down to a series of topics. But knowledge vs mere information does us no go. What POWER is there is constantly regurgitating information that has already past. It's all the feelings and opinions that separate the two. It's seems that we have fallen out of place when it comes to applying knowledge that moves things. Gives those causes legs, awareness, education, stability. It is the knowledge, the sum of what can or needs to be known, the know how, so you can do, can be, can stand, can resist or assist. KNOWLEDGE is Power.
But we like information. Too much information, you're getting lost in your feelings, reacting and not responding. Whining and complaining. I tell you what, Start meeting together for real. Behind some closed doors. Peacefully, lawfully, tactfully, preparing to present or make way. Be quiet. Be organized. Be ready. Too much information is still chaos. Don't confuse free speech with venting opinions, passing mere information, and getting your two cents in. Use knowledge. All these feelings keeping the masses in a frenzy of endless information, all trying to catch up and keep up with each other. It's a distraction. Because those with the knowledge, do. And while they're doing, all you find out is the information. Alot of people are walking around with computers in there pockets and purses and won't use them well. Knowledge is power, just not yours... so get it together.
The whole idea behind "knowledge is power"
is that ignorance "is not" bliss.
When you know better, you can make a better way.
