Chapter 11, Week 22 - TESTS VS TEMPTATION (CONTINUES)

tests vs temptation (continues)

Once you have done one to two activities out of the eight in the previous chapter, you will begin to shift your energy to a positive zone. It is all about recognizing and acknowledging that you are falling into temptation that will kill your Life Goals and Life Dreams. Even though you are afoot in, you can and should quickly act to pull yourself out from the pit.

It is difficult to look at your own weaknesses. It is always easy to be able to detect dust in the eyes of other people but not knowing you have a plank in your own eyes. I am sure you might have experienced some of your friends whom you know who initially begin well but ended up worst than from where he or she begins. Once you begin to entertain the thoughts (the end result of a particular temptation), you have allowed and welcome it with open arms. So it is us who ought to be blamed for falling for temptations and not the person or thing that sway, incite, impel, or seduces us.

When we are confronted with temptations, a lot of negotiations and debate that takes place in our powerful minds. We usually fall for either one of these:

1. Never tried nor experience but know the consequences

2. Tried and experienced before but is resisting after knowing the consequences

You might argue with me and say that it is unfair to point the finger at ourselves for falling into temptations. Very naturally and conveniently we will say and blame it on the person or thing that entices and influences us and we being humans are too weak to resist.

You and I will never in our sane mind pick up scorching charcoal, will you? You already know the consequences or the end result of it. But many of us sometimes somewhere along the journey of our lives, not only we pick it up scorching charcoal, we even place them on our laps. Are we not looking for trouble or inflicting ourselves? For those who never experience or know the danger and consequences of fire, a good example is little children. Even, if we move their little hands trying to get close to the burning charcoal, will they not stop or resist or even cry once their hands are able to sense the heat from the charcoals? For sure they will.

So the problem lies within us. We are the ones who ought to be blamed.

No excuse. Period.

If you still disagree with me at this point, it means you are still undecided about whether to stop or to continue at some point in time the activity that will sway you, misguide you, misplace you, and eventually stops you from reaching your Life Goals and Life Dreams. The choice is yours.

You ought to know the toxicity of temptations. Its sole purpose is to kill your Life Dreams and Life Goals.
