Trapped In The Negatives The Crisis Key

Image
My Friends at Pattern Realm As we know, Covid 19 pandemic sent shockwaves everywhere. We wore masks on our faces and attended meetings via Zoom. Churches and schools were closed and a sense of despair and angst washed over the world. You see I know Covid shook the social and society landscape we were so accustomed to, and frankly we are still accustomed to it. In the 5 and a half decades of my life I have come to know that in crises you do one or two things 1. You stay true to what you know and or 2. You renew and reinvent. I have been at both crossroads. For Covid, I did my best to stay true to what II would not have my wife Bllanca, mi hermosa Princesa. knew as a Restored Christian even though for 2 years it was very hard. But then by 2021 I felt the call by God and my own intuitive perspective to reinvent and renew myself spiritually and temporally. To protect my sanity I created an alter ego to help me in difficult times. I developed my own personal philoso...

Trapped in The Negatives 2 The Family Tree

​     Here’s something plain for you to see I believe in the traditional model of family, one man and one woman married for time in all eternity.  Complete Chassidy before marriage and total Fidelity during marriage, that’s something that is missing in today’s paradigm.       But be that as it may be trapped in the negatives in the family key is holding onto old dysfunctional ideals, and labels from family of origin that no longer service.  Blanca mi Princesa has caught me in such cases to redesign family. It can be more than just the people you’re living with and the people you’re born into. It can be a spiritual community..      That’s why my friends at Legacy patterns at Pattern tRealm I consider you to be my family in Christ In Christ Jimmy LGP

My Mission is My Passion

Image
Legacy Friwends at Pattern Realm This week I podcasted a feature show called Faith Live now where Pastor Kary Kesee (who I affectionately call Gary K) and his wife Drenda interview Dr. Delatorro McNeal II’ on his book Caught between a Dream and a Job. I have read that book to some detail and I have my unique perspective. What would you do if you knew you coulldn’t fail? If your debts were paid with your bills what would you do? What’s your passion? What’s your PAss-I-ON. What is it that God gives you in life thaat you can pass you on to impact others? A common teaching of the Landmark Forum (I will paraphrase the title of the concept in my own words “There is no is, reality.” In other words we cannot use the catchword phrase “”It is what it is with a defeatist attitude that is destructive to the soul. Instead, kllet God in His Word provide you the meaning of things to tap into success. Another one we need to overcome is excuses. Fear doesn’t need to be a ...

Covenant Weekly Reset

Image
Legacy Pattern Friends at Pattern Realm, This topic has been strong on my mind for 2 weeks now, and I have been thinking of ways to incorporate it in my teaching. Billionaires like Bill Marriott and Truitt Caffy have one thing in common. They have a weekly reset to enter the house of God, partake of sacrament and renew their covenants. Honestly, any covenant entrepreneur can work six days a week giving them all they got. But truth is we all need one day to focus solely on our relationship with the Lord, our family, and to recconfigure our goals according to the map of faith and family. Few people in business are willing to take that break. They call covenant entrepreneurs like me crazy for believing that. They say “Sunday is church, but after thaat real life.” I used to believe that until July 8, 2001 when I entered the covenant waters of baptism and committed to a covenant relationship with Jesus Christ. Many people have a problem with that dynamic,...

Real Christiann 10X Life

Image
Friends at Pattern Realm, Funny what cravings and righteous desires a good Christian heart can have? But are we keeping in alignment of those with the desires of Christ. You inow secretly I hope for a best friend to invite me to do something amazing, stunning and exciting for my coaching business. But the fact is I received an invitation from my real best friend, Christ. I just didn’t know it. This morning I was watching a snippet from Faith Driven Entrepreneurs, and it occurred to me that my very best friend from childhood, Christ invites me to live the 10X Christian life in business and personal life. Exciting! What humans can’t fulfill in us, Christ steps in and takes the reigns. He invites us to live quietly and testify loudly. For 2 years I have longed to be a Toastmasters officer with some public recognition, only to lose. But then hearing what I heard through Faith Driven Entrepreneurs I’ve learned that I must disappear to be seen. You may say, “J...

Para Mi Corazon, Emotional Intellligence and Authenticity.

Image
Friends at Pattern Realm, Pattern Realm, perhaps you look at the news and feel the whole world’s gone crazy. There’s economic and political upheaval even in your own country, and the slaughter of unborn innocents. Not to mention those with disabilities in rural areas facing logistical problems in living independantly. Honestly, there are days I lie in bed and pray, crying out to Heavenly Father feeling like I want to go Home. Days I just feel likke giving up Because in a world where dreamers and thought leaders are craving fellowship and finding none the sting of that hurts living on. Catastrophizing and self doubt are the tools of fear that are enemies of our success. I know them all to well suffering from bipollar disorder PTSD and imposter syndrone. But then I think about a Sunday discussion a few weeks ago at church when my bishop opened up a discussion about the founding documents of America. More particularly what stirs me is talking about what the p...

Lessons Fro The Blind

Image
Dear Friends at Pattern Realm, This blog tells stories of self empowerment in the blindness c ommunity. Blind people for too long have been surrounded by stigma and misconception. But yesterday I sat down with my good friend and fellow Toastmaster Mike to talk about lessons both of have learned as men who happen to be blind. We believe in self advocacy and empowerment. 3 days ago in Sunday School a teacher with caution asked me "I know that you are blind, but not offending you, I notice you can see to read, how is that." I calmly explained to him that there was no offense taken. Blindness is just a simple physical characteristic that doesn't define us. I could've patterned my life life after Theodore Roosevelt, but I had people who saw a better path for mine. No one owes us equality. With alternative techniques the blind can function in society on terms of full equality. Leaders like George Card, Jacobus Tenbrook Kenneth Jern...
