Get the Most from Yourself

This is the twenty first article in a series from the book titled Get The MOST From Yourself, by Terry Kibiloski, copyright 1996.

The human system is similar to the personal computer system, with three major parts - the body (hardware), the mind (software), and the spirit, or soul, (user).

We are spirits having a human experience!

To maintain the human system it's important to understand:

  • Body specialists (doctors) help maintain our human body.
  • Mind specialists (psychologists) help maintain our human mind.
  • Spirit, or soul, specialists (priests, ministers, rabbis, etc.) teach us how to effectively use our body and mind. The ideal teacher is the Creator of our body and mind.

If you can understand the similarity between the computer system and the human system, you are on your way to getting the MOST from yourself. Let's now look at some important principles.

  • As the computer operator uses the hardware and software to have a computing experience, our spirit uses the body and mind to have a human experience
  • Our overall health depends upon a harmonious relationship between our body, mind and spirit
  • Our human system seeks harmony and ease, not dis-ease
  • Harmony is the glue that holds everything together in our universe.
  • Our overall success depends upon the harmony (love) we have with other human beings.

Last month, we showed you how your personal human system relates to the larger human system. This month, we give you a quick review of the key points we looked at earlier in this series, plus a few new ones.

  • Our universe, our business, our family, our human self are all systems, existing through the cooperation of many smaller supporting systems.
  • Each system requires a positive life force to ensure its success.
  • People are the life force behind every human system (organization).
  • To get the MOST from any organization, we must first get the MOST from its people.
  • To understand people, we must first understand our own human system.
  • Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "We become what we think about all day long."
  • Norman Vincent Peale taught us to "Change your thoughts and you change your world."
  • The Bible teaches us "The mind controlled by the spirit is life and peace (Rom. 8:6 NIV)."
  • Buckminster Fuller tells us, "99 percent of who you are is invisible and untouchable."
  • We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, we are spiritual beings having a human experience.
  • As the computer operator uses the hardware and software to have a computing experience, our spirit uses the body and mind to have a human experience.
  • The greatness, the ultimate success, of our human system depends on our spirit, the creator of our thoughts.
  • The biggest influence on our life is our thoughts, the way we think.
  • There is a direct relationship between sowing positive thoughts and reaping positive rewards.
  • You may not do everything you love, but you can still love everything you do.
  • Positive thoughts can be applied to all situations and processed into positive feelings, attitudes, and actions.
  • YOU control your thoughts.
  • You become what you think about all day long.
  • You are the sum total of all the choices YOU have made.
  • The choices you make are directly linked to the image, the thoughts, you have of yourself.
  • First, develop an image of a happy and successful YOU, and then fill your mind with positive, supporting thoughts.
  • Happiness and success come from inside, not from outside of you. You are in total control.
  • Success is something internal, an attitude, a positive image.
  • The primary difference between a highly successful, happy person and someone who has little success and happiness is the way they think.
  • Success is not something you get from a job. Success is something you bring to the job.
  • "Arriving" people are successful every day of their lives. Success is something they bring to everything they do.
  • Success is "arriving" in the present, not "striving" for the future.
  • "Striving" involves a lot of effort and energy and leaves you in a state of struggling - a never ending journey, characterized by the disease called "MORE." "Striving" people always want MORE.
  • "Striving" people spend a lot of time chasing external things for their happiness, and blaming external things for their lack of happiness.
  • "Arriving" people realize happiness and success are internal, spiritual in nature.
  • Inner peace must be found within our own spirit.
  • In the best-seller book of the 1970s, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, Jonathan told Fletch "Don't believe what your eyes are telling you. All they show is limitation. Look with your understanding (your spirit), find out what you already know, and you'll see the way to fly."
  • Program your mind to act positively through daily positive "self talk." Make it a habit!
  • Our mind is a perfect computer, consistently performing the same actions it was programmed to perform in any given situation.
  • Our mind reacts very quickly to positive programming.
  • Harmony is the glue that holds everything together in our universe.
  • Our overall health depends upon a harmonious relationship between our body, mind and spirit.
  • Our overall success depends upon the harmony (love) we have with other human beings.

Focus on each of the principles above. Relate them to your own personal experiences. Grow from those experiences. Find out what you already know and you will see the way to fly.

Much more next month.
