Know!  Believe! Succeed!

After watching the movie Freedom Writers over and over again I realized very clearly that if you believe in something or someone you can make a difference in their life as well as your own.    I realized that one person can make a difference by not giving up on what they believe in and by trying all ways possible to make it work, no matter what the obstacles. Knowing, if you believe and place your confidence and ability in what you believe, you will see things happen by your continued commitment to the process, and you will make a difference.

Erin Gruwell believed not only in her ability to be an effective teacher but also in the ability of her students she taught. Even when others told her that they were unteachable she believed in them. She believed so much in them that they went on to become the Freedom Writers and inspired others by their writings.

Another example of this is Father Flannigan who founded Boys Town. He believed that there was no such thing as a bad boy only a boy that needed love, discipline, and guidance to help to mold him into the young man that is able to make a difference in his life and the lives of those around him. He believed in that so much he went on to build a boys home called Boys Town to help those that others had given up on.

 

BELIEVE! It is my belief “All things are possible if you believe and they are so when you know.” Do you believe in something or someone so much that you are willing to take a chance on them?  Are you willing to take a chance on teaching the so called unteachable, to love the unlovable, and on leading those that others see as being lost? Are you willing to take a chance on them; are you willing to take a chance on you? Do you believe in you? When you do the Universe will begin to join with you and activate your knowing to the point of success. You will begin to see results, and see victory on every level.   

You are saying Divine Love I believe;

1.      In you and the ability you placed in me. I know I can make wise decisions. I have confidence in me and my ability to succeed.

2.      I believe in that person or project that I am putting my energy into. And I know that beyond a shadow of a doubt all things are possible.  

The Freedom Writers teacher never gave up on them and because she believed in them it made it easier for them to believe in themselves.  She saw them and their potential, and she built on that, the ability she saw in them and the ability she had in herself.

When she first applied for the job she said “I have not had much experience but I am a quick learner and I am willing to learn.”  She believed in her ability to learn how to teach those children. And because of her faith in her own ability she was able to help to build their confidence in themselves and they were able to become a model class in their school. Why, because they believed in themselves and their teacher. She told one young man “I see you and I know that you are not a failure now I want you to go back and do that evaluation over.”

Do you believe in yourself or in a project that you know is doable, or do you believe in the story that someone else has built around you? Whose story are you going to believe? Do not give up on your dreams, do not give up on you, and do not give up on what/ or who you believe in. Don’t rely on what others say find out for you. And begin to see all of the possibilities that will enable you to be successful in your quest.

 Remember. The only failure is the failure to try. If you try you will succeed to some degree and it will give you the confidence to continue, to go on to succeed at greater and greater levels. And always remember to ask yourself by whose standard are you measuring your level of success, by what someone else has perceived of you or by what you know of yourself. Rely on your ability, with the help of Divine Love, and know you are a winner and there are no failures, only the failure to try.  

 

STAND! When you really believe in something you stand up for it. And sometimes you lose those you care about along the way because they do not believe or understand and are not able to stand with you. Stand anyway.  Just know that it was not their time to continue on this journey with you that they must leave you so that they can go on to find their own continued journey in life. Stand!

Be one of those who can see beyond appearances and can continue to follow until that belief becomes manifest. Can you hold on to what you believe? Can you continue to motivate, captivate, generate, the impossible to manifest as the possible believing beyond all measure in the substance of your belief?  Do you believe beyond all else that your dreams are possible? That the person you believe in will grow beyond measure? Do you believe? Then activate your belief by Doing and know that the results will lead to success. Do you know…….Then Do?

DOING “Faith without works is dead” Activate your Faith, activate your Knowing. Continue with that project you put down because you couldn’t get it to manifest; go on to complete that song that you started a few years ago believing that it would be a hit; finish writing that story that you knew would be a best seller; start that business that you know everyone is waiting for; help that young person you saw because you believed in them; do what you believe in and know that The only failure is the failure to try. Know that you have already succeeded. Remember this question, by whose standard do you measure your success, by yours or by Divine Love? Think about it. I believe in you now believe in yourself and go for it.
