EP26 - What is Self Motivation?
Quote: “The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The optimist sees opportunity in every difficulty." — Winston Churchill Let’s talk about it! Why do we need motivation? Without motivation we would not have the need or ability to continue pushing forward in every circumstance we face in life. This can apply to school, work, personal goals, family life, or even in your walk with Christ or your religion. How do we stay motivated? In order to stay motivated most of us like to see some sort of progress towards our goals, we want that confirmation that we are moving in the right direction and all things are coming together. However that isn’t always the case. We ponder what to do when we feel lost & unmotivated. Personally, I’ve been here more times then not. I know what it’s like to be working towards several goals at once and being overwhelmed that everything isn’t going to get done or accomplished. Ex: I have worked full time in my career while also taking 1-2 online college classes to further my education while still having to maintain motivation in my personal life to keep going with my fitness goals and purpose related goals when it comes to being a creative. Ex: my podcast It’s not always easy but I try to rely on God and look for the opportunity / lesson in every situation and season. God would not put me in a place he doesn’t want me to lead or work. There’s a reason for everything and that’s something I have to continuously remind myself even when the motivation is not there. Self motivation relates to emotional intelligence because one cannot be open and willing to perceive different perspectives and emotions from others, when they can’t even understand or stay committed to their own self drive, interpersonal emotions, and goals in life. Motivational Quotes in the Bible Isaiah 41:10 (NIV) "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Philippians 4:6–7 (NIV) "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Romans 8:28 "And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to His purpose. LETS CONNECT!

EP25 - What is Empathy?
“You can only understand people if you feel them in yourself” - John Steinbeck What is empathy? - one ability to understand & relate to the feelings of others How to be empathetic? - Being aware of other people's feelings, not being self centered & considering not only the effect of an action to you but also how it would affect others Who does empathy affect? - at work, empathy with family and kids included ,empathy in a relationship etc **one ability to show Empathy can effect any type of relationship, think about all relationships take 2 and it’s important to be able to relate and considerate towards others Christian Perspective: God created all humans as equal, there is not one human who is superior to another. He created us to be like minded so that we can relate to another & be compassionate, kind, & loving towards one another. But without empathy none of those things are possible, God says love your brothers and sisters and treat them how you would want to be treated (during the good times and bad times) everyday / daily. 1 Peter 3:8 ESV Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind. 1 Corinthians 12:26 ESV If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together. Ephesians 4:32 ESV Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you. LETS CONNECT!
