IMPORTANT PASSWORD INFORMATION!

The other morning I was listening to a video by Tony Robbins and I would like to share with you a little of what I got out of that video. In it he referenced Jim Rohn, his mentor. That is where the idea comes from.

The idea revolves around passwords. It seems today we have a password for everything. We have a password for our cellphones. We certainly do not want just anyone being able to get into there! We have passwords for our computer. Even things like online shopping and social media have passwords. Even logging on to the platform I write this blog on has a password. Just in case any of you would want to come on here and write an inspiring post for me. Actually, if you would like to be a guest author, we can work on that.

The one thing that we need to guard does not come with a password. That is our minds. You must stand guard at the gate of your mind. We are almost force-fed information from a variety of sources. We hear the news, family, friends and coworkers just to name a few. Many are like chicken little telling us the sky is falling and how terrible the world is. Some give us gossip about other people that may only be true to some degree or maybe not true at all. We often let this all inside our mind without deciding if it belongs there. We must safeguard our minds my friends. The place between your ears is the most powerful spot in our lives. It deserves just as much guarding as our cell phone or computer. WE decide what goes into our minds. Let us make sure not everyone has the password.

THE PASSWORD IS…

Passwords…how many do you have?  One for your ATM card One for your email?  One at work?  It can sure be annoying having to remember all of those.  Your dog’s name plus the number one?  Your birthday backwards?   I almost used to dread when my passwords were coming due.  There is also the famous ‘secret question’ in case you forget your password.  They say that everywhere you see a problem lies the seed for the greatest opportunity.  This example is no different.  Let me explain.

People are always telling me, “I know I should try to be more positive, but it is too much work.  Why can’t it just be automatic?”.  Well here is your answer.  Why not turn your passwords into a daily dose of motivation or inspiration?  I’ve used passwords such as ‘joy4me’ and ‘happiness4all’ or ‘smile2day’ The possibilities are endless!  That way every time you time in your password, you are reminded of something positive.  Let’s face it, you must have a password anyway, why not make it work FOR you?  Even if it may not seem to be making a difference, how do you think saying  “joy4me”  everyday in your head will affect you?  Even on a subconscious level.  Not to mention, you probably already know your dog’s name plus one.
