7 WAYS for achieving your purpose

 CHOOSE YOUR DIRECTION
make use of free will. Jesus and the blind man. Why does Jesus ask him what he wants when it is obvious he want to see?
Choose area (learning, marriage, finance, friendships) of importance to you, and make 3-10 goals. What measurable and compelling goal is possible? Set the goal, and then you have the direction. Reticular activating system: it helps you find whatever you are focusing on. 

E.g. Search for blue items. Okay, how many purple items are there? you don't know. Because you only focus on what you look for. Your brain gets excited and get power the moment it knows what direction it is about to take. Decide your exact deadline when you will achieve it. Also, ascertain what you want to sacrifice. (time/money/patience/difficult situations) The price will be 
"Where there is no vision, people perish"-Solomon

 CHOOSE YOUR REASONS
Do you have insight to yourself? Be a person of deep water, look deeper. Introspect. What do you want? Why do you want to be a manager? Why do you want this?
Get the head and heart aligned to invest. Put the logician to work. Get your output in journals. Don't just input and react. DOn't react instinctively anymore. Don't be a SIM. Be a SIM coordinator.
Timing education. You can't be effective if you didn't educate yourself out of the problem. You can't lose.
When you educate yourself, your reasons get stronger.
Don't give fluffy reasons, get honest. Reasons get results. 


 CHOOSE YOUR METHODS
Luke 14: 28-29. For which one of you, when he wants to build a watchtower [for his guards], does not first sit down and calculate the cost, to see if he has enough to finish it? 29 Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is unable to finish [the building], all who see it will begin to ridicule him,
Write down your goals, choose a plan, and follow the plan every single day.

Pick your 3 goals:
 GOALS. planning for the week ahead: make announcements/work/do job/
VORTEX: distractions but things that need to be done.


 CHOOSE YOUR VALUES
Matthew 16:26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?
What do you subscribe to when you focus on goals? List your values and go for it. Values colour the way you see life.


 CHOOSE YOUR COMPANIONS
Proverbs 13:20: Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm.
Your income ~ +or- 20% your 5 best friends
Love the person, don't love the flaws. 


 CHOOSE YOUR ROUTINE
Put as many things as you can into routines. Auto-piloting necessary stuff.
Daniel 6:10 Now when Daniel learned that the decree had been published, he went home to his upstairs room where the windows opened toward Jerusalem. Three times a day he got down on his knees and prayed, giving thanks to his God, just as he had done before.
See if you do routines for 5 years. Save 30% into an investment account. You learn to live on 70%. Your accumulation multiplies. Every routine has a compound effect hidden in them.

 CHOOSE YOUR BREAKS
Genesis 2:2 "By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work."
Your brain gets interesting when you take breaks, moving short term RAM to the hard-disk. 
There are 3 kinds of break.
1. The Daily break, a switch on and switch off. Total AWOL at a certain time.
2. The Weekend break. One day completely off, to recharge.
3. Up to 4 major holidays per year.

Bill Gates Reading break? Life is about life.
We are designed to be fully engaged and fully disengaged.

John 16:33
I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.

East and West (religion seeking community and individuality)

 The trend of religion in each state. religion is primed to feed the soul what it lacks.  East communal spirit, people are bonded through their societal role, erasing individuality in the sense where they are intrinsically empowered through 'free' thoughts of expressing whatever they like. Religion will be focusing on the fulfillment of  West is individualised, religion is primed to bring people back into communities and nurture that spirit of caring for each other and moving forward together to a collectively higher purpose. CHRISTIANITY: This is not a religion, this is a personal relationship with Jesus.  Hold out for a saviour who returns your texts, and not someone who has holy ghosted you. But he always answers prayers, it’s just that the answer is sometimes no. This seems more like a one-sided relationship that the imagined person, if he exists, doesn’t seem aware of? This is not so different from the phenomenon in modern celebrity culture— a parasocial relatio...

DOMINATION

"... when domination disguised its real self in euphemisms " Once you have seen through & smelled the deliberate lies and distortions - often via "education" & mass media- of White Western Colonialisms you can no longer un-see or un-smell the shit.  Then, you no longer give a fuck about the Colonizer's taste, judgement, prestige, affirmation, acceptance, validation, or relationship with your colonizer and his/her institutions.  That to me is the ultimate liberation of the Colonized. We must un-fuck our consciousness, if we wish to live with essential self-respect & dignity as equals in these global webs of group & individual relations. "... when domination disguised its real self in euphemisms " decolonize our imaginations with pedagogies and experiences,

Acceptance of LGBTQ identities in Malaysian and Singaporean Protestant Churches

Title Acceptance of LGBTQ identities in Malaysian and Singaporean Protestant Churches Introduction  While Christianity has traditionally been homomisic in the nature of its doctrine, churches have been utilising the discourse of ‘God-given unconditional love’ to be more welcoming towards LGBTQ identities. Regardless, even with this softened approach, the LGBTQ community still faces pervasive discrimination. Elements of discriminatory behaviour, bias, and stigmatisation can be systemic in nature, constituting of how people reinforce and propagate varying textual formats of power through language discourse (Potter 1996). In this case, the Christian perspective assumes power through the discourse of heteronormativity, which recognizes heterosexuality as the norm while refuting other forms other than heterosexuality by labelling them as deviant and pathological (Yep 2002). Nonetheless, despite ‘hate the sin and love the sinner’ being used as a statement of reconciliation against suppos...
