Doing the right thing takes a lot of growing up, and a lot of thinking. But, thinking about what? “Buddy, where are you? Oh, Hello, Buddy!”
“By doing the right thing, yes, you will need to think: “Will it be good for me? Will my actions affect someone else? What could the consequence be?”
“So Buddy, you’re saying that we need a process for our thinking before we make a decision?” We want to do the right thing, and we want to be good. “But, how can we be sure that what we decide will work in our favor? We need self-validation, Buddy.”
“Little Lou, you have discovered the power of taming the wild horses application for satisfaction; so cool! You’ve got it!”
“I don’t think so, Buddy. We many not have the answers to the process.”
“Well, Little Lou, I know you have patience, and you will figure it all out.”
Doing the right thing in relationship to others takes a lot of thinking. The growing up factor will continue to advance awareness of ourselves, and others…advancing us with our caring about doing the right thing. Validation will be realized through our wild horses.
“Yeah! Yes, Little Lou!”
“Self-realization and self-validation, Buddy! Thank you!”
Understanding that the wild horse energy needs to be directed. First by ourselves doing the right thing, and then doing the right thing by others. Hopefully, doing the right thing will be realized by all. A win, win!
Now, have you come up with a process, doing the right thing, that will work for you? There are many paths in life for accomplishing our goals; but first goals are needed! What goals might yours be?
It could be as simple as doing the right thing!
The Process:
1) Self-honesty, 2) Accountability, 3) Responsibility, 4) Initiative, 5) Results!
Here I am, living in Jackson Hole, Wyoming thinking, "What can I tell you about my life and my own experiences?" Having grown up in Houston, Texas, then moving to Dallas, where my children grew up. We were fortunate enough to have a second home in Jackson Hole. At 84 now, I am over-read on self-help information. Self-awareness and being, or becoming more aware of my own behavior, as it relates to myself and then to others, is where my thinking and doing takes me. I'm about moving forward, for acknowledging to addressing today's problems, and what we can do to make a difference. It's important! At this point, I am only the messenger, offering solutions to the current suicide and drug crisis among our young people, in today's world; with a pathway to follow. Check out my website: tamingthewildhorses.com Currently, I am working at The Historic Wort Hotel's gift shop. Also, volunteer at our Senior Center. I enjoy being at home, cooking, having a garden (a good thinking and writing place), being with friends exploring the landscape, (which is amazing in Jackson Hole) and checking out our thrift stores. In just a couple of weeks, I'll be driving to Denver to be grandma to my teenage granddaughters for a month. In October, I'll be in Houston for a book-signing event for, "Taming the Wild Horses. Then back to my regular routine here in Jackson Hole. "Happy Trails Everyone!" B. Louise Bayer/Martens
