Top Ten Ways to Live Authentically
Get Right! Make a Difference
Advertising

Living a successful life is a constant challenge. Sometimes it's good
to be reminded that there are some guidelines available if we look for
them. In many instances, these are just common sense, but as humans we
tend to forget about the obvious, and go with the flow. If we remind
ourselves once in a while about these spiritual strategies, it can make
a dramatic difference in the quality of our lives. Following are some
of these principles to help us on our way.

Top Ten Ways to Live Authentically
by Ann Ronan

1. Know your purpose
Are you wandering through life with little direction - hoping that
you'll find happiness, health and prosperity? Identify your life
purpose or mission statement, and you'll have your own unique compass
that will lead you to your true north every time.

2. Know your values
What do you value most? Make a list of your top 5 values. Some examples
are security, freedom, family, spiritual development, learning. As you
set your goals, check your goals against your values. If the goal
doesn't align with any of your top five values, you may want to
reconsider it or revise it.

3. Know your needs
Unmet needs can keep you from living authentically. Take care of
yourself. Do you have a need to be acknowledged, to be right, to be in
control, to be loved? List your top four needs and get them met!

4. Know your passions
Honor those things that make your heart sing. Whatever it is, do more
of it.

5. Live from the inside out
Increase your awareness of your inner wisdom by regularly reflecting in
silence. Commune with nature. Breathe deeply to quiet your distracted
mind.

6. Honor your strengths
What are your positive traits? What special talents do you have? List
three - if you get stuck, ask those closest to you to help identify
these. Are you imaginative, witty, good with your hands? Find ways to
express your authentic self through your strengths.

7. Take time to play
Give yourself time to recharge doing things you love to do or by just
doing nothing.

8. Be aware of your self-talk
Are you blocking your potential? Check out your first thoughts when you
wake tomorrow. Are they supportive, encouraging or positive? Choose the
kind of chatter that goes on in your mind. Become aware of the negative
messages you give yourself. Gently catch them, and turn them into
positive affirmations.

9. Surround yourself with inspiration
Keep a success journal. Write down your four or five greatest strengths
and post them where you can see them. On the last Friday of each month,
write down all your accomplishments, both big and small.

10. Serve others
When you live authentically, you may find that you develop an
interconnected sense of being. When you are true to who you are, living
your purpose and giving of your talents to the world around you, you
give back in service what you came to share with others - your spirit -
your essence.

Get Right! Make a Difference
By Stuart Malkin

Want to make a difference? What can one person do? The answer is
everything! In its finest sense, the behavior of every one of us is
central to the peace of the world. For the individual, the best thing
we can all do is to practice Right Action, with all of its many
implications. I have farmed some of them here for you from the book
'Looking for a Better World.'

* Do nothing that will harm others.

* Be informed. Follow the news. Form opinions that will promote peace
and discuss such opinions openly.

* Encourage diversity, discourage bigotry.

* Study the World’s Religions.

* Try to understand and appreciate the belief systems of others.

* Respect one another. Respect divergent views and differing habits.

* Be ethical, honest, trustworthy, loyal and open.

* Visit the Houses of other religions. Attend a service. Explore New
Age concepts. Be open to all ideas while retaining the belief system of
your choice.

* Discourage dissension at all levels. That does not mean honest
agreement ... it means discourage travel away from the Right Path.

* Preserve the planet. Recycle. respect Nature.

* Always be kind and considerate. There is no small kindness and no
good deed that is unworthy. When one receives a kindness he is more apt
to do kind things.

* See only good in all things and all people. This is another piece of
Right Action that will multiply ... and when you foster goodness it
will travel great distances!

* Be flexible. Enjoy the opinions of others, bathe in their diversity,
welcome honest debate.

* Work well. Give your employer your very best. Do not be satisfied
with anything less!

* Give your family and friends your very best, always.

* Give service. The greatest men and women on the planet are those who
serve. It is one of the greatest contributions you can make towards
peace.

This is a list and a half! I know that ... but I also know that you can
achieve personal greatness and success if you follow these ideas.

There are no secrets in the list ... in fact, my list here is just
another way of repeating the ideals of the early Avitars. Such Ideals
represent a Path well worth traveling and I commend to you the
opportunity to be one of those who can, in time, say 'I was one of
those who made a difference.'

Religion. He has made hundreds of visits to schools with a moving and
effective motivational presentation, urging teens to do their personal
best. His mentoring programs have empowered many, many children. His
quest for years has been to teach the power of Right Action, working
towards the goal of a better world.-
