The Sadness Of An Angel Who Has Lost Heaven
Rise above the other people, setting a well-founded agreement between the joy of your life and of them.
Somewhere deep inside your heart his dream was still alive - he wanted to become a writer. But his life brought more than a nightmare. He failed in a terrible way. For although he wrote much, never managed to sell anything, not even one filler. Left without money, he committed for insurance agent. But as much and as many hours he worked, was always plunged in debts. And like any man plunged to his neck in debts, hiding from reality has found relief in drink. That prompted his wife to take their daughter and leave him. Thus, he remained alone.
An angel abandoned by God. From heaven to hell is only one step, a step that any angel can make if he lacks faith. So it happened that in a cold winter morning, surrounded by fears, doubts and pain, poor man, lying in one of the worst parts of the city of Cleveland, without overcoat, shivering with cold and hungry, he saw through the window of a pawn shop a gun. "This weapon will end all my problems" he said bitterly. He was going to buy that gun, some bullets and in the room where he lives, to pull the trigger.
Useless, worthless, hopeless, he waited with his heart rushing in the chest, a signal. Something whispered to his heart to stay away from that store. He listened to his inner voice and started to walk in the rain until he reached the steps of a public library. He joined. Pleasant warmth embraced him. Walking through the aisles of books came to that section of motivational books found in all libraries. He put his hand on the wonderful book "Success through a positive Attitude" written by W. Clement Stone, and started reading it. Since that day, his life has changed.
Leadership: Do you experience a final state in the evolution of a liberating self-seeking by assuming a suffering produced as a result of coming closer to spiritual things?
The open gate to heaven. The one that I just told you lived 73 years and became a legend. His books still sell like hot cakes. It has been written about him in almost all magazines worldwide. Many have revered his success. Many are following him even now and will follow in the future his tips and lessons. You may have heard of this man who, surprisingly, found a turning point in his life the gate "to Heaven" - in a city library in Cleveland. Or maybe you have heard about his famous book: "The most famous vendor in the world". His name is Og Mandino.
Og Mandino is the personification of a special moment in the evolution of a healing of unhappiness, soul wounds, anxiety or depression, through the contribution of the psyche that can make a leap from doubt to hope, from mistrust to certainty about the effectiveness of a "divine" in personal experience, in daily actions and decisions, in particularly difficult and complicated situations.
To put all your hope in a divine intervention is synonymous with fighting against acts directed against life. It is as if you were blind, you do not see and appreciate the qualities of everything that comes from the other direction of all that you encounter in life than when you reach the boundary between warmth and cold, between the material world and the spiritual world, that is when you’re about to give up.
Renunciation is the act of separating yourself from the experience of self-seeking during the search for answers and questions in which are specified the admissible limits of the relationship between what you assume is the unseen but understood part of the story and what you assume is the reality that dominates you by reducing it to a tiny universe.
Many years ago I read, with the same joy that I love to read all the personal development books, the book of Og Mandino, entitled "Secrets of happiness and success" in which he told with liveliness his life - from failure to success. And what I understand of it, in all its sections, in terms of Og Mandino, prior success is not happiness, but happiness precedes success. First you need to take control of your life, on the events that can influence you, and to start from the premise that everything will be fine. Then, your path to success will open by itself.
Does your leadership manage to achieve the great performance of creating a bridge between the world of individual perception and the world of shared experience?
Valuable people, whose certain face of life proved to them that they are above their own limits, above everything they predominantly think, vote for a certain way of self-governing and self-motivation, that sometimes lasts so few, but triggers new horizons, new beginnings.
Any moral, emotional and existential handicap situations generate among those of us who have a leading potential, complex reasoning shapes, unified through a validation impulse for a remarkable change in direction. A point of maximum intensity, that one touched, has the formidable capacity to produce, first handedly a kind of "induced resistance", then a kind of contrary reaction, propelling that person towards a life with more meaning.
Leadership, with the same power a beautiful story touches us, manages the great performance to create a bridge between the world of individual perception and the world of shared experience, together with man’s attempt to reinvent himself by appealing to an integrated "emblem": compliance.
By explaining the causes of later success (unexpectedly), due to the continuity of performing through improving the capacity to change what can’t be accepted, there are defined a number of positions that take into account the individuality, maturation and the psycho-emotional approach.
A position of the type "I’ve got nothing to hide" through which you communicate your absence of the possibility to determine the concrete impact of your beliefs about life. Or an analytical position – the experience in processing your own emotions, identifying situations which can trigger a protection behavior from other people or from a higher entity (God).
The approach about the process of personal reinvention claims that success occurs due to the high level of an individual’s capacity to understand a situation through his own beliefs. This winner’s position had and still has supporters among the people that try to discover their call and to put to use their vocation, although its implications on a social, moral and pedagogical approach can be extremely inequitable.
Leadership: Do you start getting closer to what "a personal mission" means when nothing in your life satisfies you anymore?
I think I can be taken seriously when I say that this is one of the best definitions of leadership I ever dared to formulate: leadership is an agreement between happiness and the happiness of other people. You may be a man of influence, but do not ever get happiness. But if you get happiness, then you can have a powerful influence. Since everyone likes happy people, isn't it? What model of strong values you can give to people who follow you, if you're unhappy? Who will dare to choose you as a mentor, if you are not an example of a man who loves his life with passion?
When you enter into relationships with people they expect from you to raise morale and to induce optimism. If you look tired and bored with the sorrows of life, all your efforts will fade. You will be like that king who, after through his front, at every moment passed a lot of people and he heard their troubles, beyond met, fell fatigue and actually got to wonder what people do want from him.
On Mrs. Liliana Constantinescu’s blog is written: "The consequences of interrupting the connection with divinity represents vitality consumption, which, in time, is transferred in the physical plane, upon the physical body. The modern man has developed very horizontally (focusing on the fulfillment of basic needs), forgetting that by his nature he is a creator, and thus, is an active part of their own realities, so he is both the initiator and the producer of his own suffering."
Just as the earth is continually degraded by pollution and overheating, so do your leadership will degrade if you do not have the power to control the circumstances, to fight with the vices and maintain on the surface your spirit and attitude of an enthusiastic and full of energy person.
You cannot progress in leadership if you lose your "heaven".
Heaven symbolizes a point of approach to yourself from the type of philosophy that can intelligently orientate you in every moment of life to the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to act for "the greater good" – which is fundamentally part of your nature: spirituality.
Self-satisfaction is what you gain when spirituality becomes as important as materiality, even if it is under the gesture of giving or receiving undue support.
The sadness of an angel who has lost heaven designates that state of deep depression that soften your defense wall around the heart and makes you vulnerable to life (in the stress and worry), and also in front of other people. Do everything possible to win because if it hits you, if it penetrates deep into your soul and wins the battle with you, it could not be banished so easily.
Your strength as a leader lies in the ability to always look ahead, regardless of circumstances and to have the vision of the future, a future as bright and as good. But if "you lose the heaven" if you raise the white flag of sadness and renunciation, then you will not ever be able to get high above other people.
Conclusion: A leader overwhelmed by sadness and sorrow induces the same collective mindset that leads him. He is like an angel who has lost the heaven and consequently will lose his followers who have elected him. Conversely, when the leader is optimistic and full of life, will always raise the moral tone of the team, creating optimum conditions for the development of great atitude. Positive thinking will have beneficial results, while its opposite will destabilize and destroy everything.
You will not be able to play an important role in people's lives, if you do not first discover the joy of life.
