Process Information Before You Share

Posted in Renewed Mind on 17. Jul, 2008

This appears to be a very important step in renewing your mind. One that, I must confess, I don’t always adhere to. Sometimes I feel compelled to share what I’ve just heard because it makes so much sense and should be good news to many people. Of course, the regurgitation of said news is rarely powerful enough to make a difference, and I end up getting frustrated with other people for not acknowledging the wisdom I’ve spouted.

Take time to process. In today’s blogging culture, it’s easy to spit out any and every tidbit of information you come across without so much as an hour of reflection. Keep in mind, however, that you can’t feed the masses with half-prepared meat. You should allow yourself to digest and possibly implement truths into your own life before trying to help others see the “light.”

After all, we learn to accept most what we see in practice by others. That’s what real credibility is all about.

  • Thank you for your encouragement, Ken. Writing my meditations and my thoughts has fallen low on the priority scale, mostly because of the fact that so many revelations are meant to be intimate and personal.

    I could and possibly should share more, but it will require some careful deliberation on my part.

    This call to renew my mind is a major part of my life, and one which I struggle with often.

    Oh I forgot to mention. I noticed your last entry was Jan. 2009, I would like to encourage you to share more. Maybe in the form of personal testimony, now that you have had time to reflect.

    I have the same situation as you mentioned about trying to share too soon. It just overwhelms me, the things revealed are LIFE. But until we, through our own practice make it our own, it is impossible to pass it on to others.
