Our mind is a goldmine of thought.

I have heard it said that our minds are a gold mine. I believe this to be true. Gold has value and when it is made into fine jewelry it is shimmering and beautiful. I see our minds the same way, valuable, dazzling, and beautiful. Our beliefs about our own abilities and skills determine whether our dreams are brought to life or left unlived. When we believe we can live our dreams through hard work perseverance and determination we do it!

What do you say to someone who cautions you about the hardships you may have to endure while working on your life ambitions? Just as gold is refined in the refiners fire our character is refined and made stronger through the trials of life. Why wouldn’t your goals and dreams be possible, that’s what you were born to do.

Your mind is capable of producing numerous thoughts and ideas. Let’s start with one great idea. By author Roger J Lown.

Your mind is capable of producing numerous thoughts and ideas.
Let’s start with one great idea. By Roger J Lown.

First ask yourself a question; what idea or story can I create?

 You have just asked you sub-conscious mind a question and in time your mind will produce an answer. It could be during the day or at 3 am in the early morning when you are sound asleep. I’ve had plenty of these awakenings! Have a pen or pencil and paper ready to jot down your thought.

The next step is very important. Not every idea you have is a great idea. You see, ideas are just like science experiments. You have to test your ideas especially if it is an idea for a product or company. As long as your idea promotes health, well-being and passes the Common Sense test you are good to go to begin taking action on your idea.

 About writing your own voice or creative story:
When meeting people and mentioning that I’m an author I usually get this response, “Roger I’d love to write my own book but I’m not a writer “.
OK let me ask two questions, do you text on your phone often and do you often comment on social media? If you answered yes then you are a writer. Why not consider writing your own book and share your experiences of life survival with others?

I published my book Change Your Life Through Writing with Outskirts Press Self-Publishing and I have and continue to have a positive experience with them. Their site is user friendly and the people at Outskirts are encouraging and are able to provide advice and answer most questions. Even if you are not ready to even think about a book I would suggest just giving them a phone call and letting them know that you are interested in writing your own book and have many questions. 
The biggest hurdle you need to jump is to believe that you have a thinking creative and inventive mind. We are born with a mind and our mind is designed to think create and invent.

Everything in life requires work. Whatever your passion is in life requires work. But when you enjoy, it does not feel like a burden as when compared to going dragging ourselves into work on a Monday morning.
Take your time and don’t quit. Love what you do and before you know it you will have arrived where you want to be!

So as Yoda says, “Do or Do Not, there is no try”. Believe you can and you will.

Thinking and creating with your mind clear. By author Roger J Lown.

Thinking and creating with your mind clear

When your heart and mind are clear you are able to focus and ready to think, create, and invent. I truly believe that writing can change a person’s life by tapping into the great resource of your mind. It does not matter whom you are or what side of the town you came from or if you lack education. You have the ability to learn what you don’t know. Adults just take longer to learn because we are set in our ways. But if you are willing and available you can learn what you need to know to accomplish your life goals. The fact is you were born with a mind and your mind thinks creates and invents. What you don’t know about your field of interest you can learn as you go. If you cannot afford time or finances for college you can go to your public library or local bookstore.
In school I was labeled as having a learning disability or LD as the administration called it. If you experienced this awkward and embarrassing school life of labels attached to you I have great news and truth for you. We were born and designed with the ability to learn. Although each person is different in how they comprehend subject matter we have the ability to learn. Whether we grasp concepts at a fast rate or slow does not indicate we cannot be taught. Don’t believe that lie that you can’t be taught or that you are too late in life to learn. As long as you are willing you can learn. I recommend reading these affirmations in your quiet time:

✓  The more I learn the more I grow and improve my life.
✓  I will invest time in studying for that life achievement I seek.
✓  I have the ability and right to learn.

We are created and designed with a thinking creative and inventive mind. Our mind works better when we have clarity and an atmosphere that promotes thoughts and ideas to flow without hindrances and distraction. That’s why writing requires some solitude. But we do have to give ourselves a break and get fresh air on a walk with a friend.

Drama belongs in our books, not in our lives. By Roger J Lown.

I’m also known in many social media groups, as a public speaker of possibilities to school districts, church groups, business groups and entrepreneurs.  In my own personal experience of writing books, blogs, and posts, I emphasize and encourage the process of writing in itself and editing to improve the writing of others.

Believing you can do whatever you set your mind to because you were born to do great things in life. By Roger J Lown.

From my Ebook on Amazon, “Your Mind Your Possibilities Go Get It!’ by Roger J Lown.

Believing you can do whatever you set your mind to because you were born to do great things in life.

I share my writing experience and suggestions with you to coach you along as we explore the possibilities of our thinking and creative mind.

I want you to know that you have the power to think create and invent and write your life story and ideas on paper because that’s what our mind our brain is designed to do. I believe children should be taught that we have a mind and our minds think create and invent, our Creator designed our minds that way. But in order to use our minds to its full potential we must understand and accept the latter concept as adults.

  For a person who desires to pursue any life ambition,

debilitating beliefs and pessimism are our kryptonite. Therefore we must program our minds which is the process of removing these false mind crippling beliefs and program our brain to work for us because that’s what our brain is designed to do.  Despite the toxic messages planted in our young minds by careless adults we have the power to reprogram and transform our minds into a powerhouse of thought. When you were a child perhaps someone told you that you can’t do that which you desire to do in life and you believed that toxic person. Children believe and trust in adults whether the adult is of healthy behavior or unhealthy behavior. A child does not understand unhealthy toxic behavior. The truth of the matter is that God created us with a thinking creating and inventive mind and if God is for us who can be against us? You are living your life and you own your dreams. God created us with our thinking and creating mind and Our Lord said we can do great things. So the fact that our Creator said it, who is man to say we cant. A “cant do’ state of mind indicates that we’ve given up and we are inclined to settle for mediocrity and complain about life.

    As an author and coach to people who desire to achieve in their life I see the word “Can” is an action word and one that promotes the accomplishment of our goals. The word “Can’t” carries a message of hopelessness and that someone will not at least try to find a solution to a problem. An athlete gives up in their mind because they believe they can’t endure the training or wins against a goliath of an opponent. A “cant do’ sate of mind indicates that we’ve given up and we are inclined to settle for mediocrity and complain about life.   

You do not have to accept the word can’t and the hopeless message this word brings with it. We would not have communication and light if the inventors of long ago ceased their experiments at one failure. We would not have modern cooking and refrigeration if those who invented these marvels quit and believed in “it can’t be done”. Underdogs in sports would not be able to win against their unbeatable opponents if they believed it couldn’t be done. Can do is a mental state of mind and in this state of mind we can solve problems and get results. With a “can do” state of mind our visions become reality and athletes win games. Once you accept the truth that you have a thinking, creating, and inventive mind you will be able to reach out farther than you ever imagined. Perhaps you have reached a “ceiling” point in your life where you believe you can’t go any further or reach any higher advances in life. The truth is your mind is a powerhouse waiting to be tapped into for successful thinking where you can begin to make improvements in your life.

My confined space challenge. A true story from my volunteer days. By Roger J Lown.

Saturday, June 25, 2016

My confined space challenge. A true story from my volunteer days. By Roger J Lown.

My crew and I from fire station 3 boarded the fire district van where we were headed to the county fire-training center. With our selected team of interior firefighters along with our lieutenant we were on our way to improve our firefighting skills. The class known as mask confidence and firefighter survival was one part class study and the other hands on training at the center. Mask confidence training is learning to work with your breathing apparatus and how use to its versatility when conditions turn bad in fire.

              We arrived and were instructed on what our tasks would be; using our air breathing packs to perform various rescue maneuvers. That evening we would face challenges and conquer our fears and learn something about ourselves we never knew.

It was my turn to crawl through one of the hurdles: a large drain page, which I had just enough room for me to crawl with my gear and pack. I informed the instructor that I might have an issue with claustrophobia. He explained that I would be on breathing air and that if I experienced difficulty staff could pull me out. My mask is covered so that no daylight can enter. I am totally dependent on my hands to feel out my enclosed space. I crawl to what feels like a circular opening. The instructor inquires, “What do you have?” I reply, “some sort of opening’ he prompts, “It’s your only way out go through it. From my class training I learned to adjust my straps and slide my air pack off my back and place it in front of me as I enter what appears to my senses to be a small tunnel. I have just enough room to push my air pack through ahead of me inch by inch as I crawl slowly breathing my air. If you recall how Darth Vader breathes, that is what I sounded like “on air” as we say in the service. The PVC drain pipe used at the training center was about ten to fifteen feet long if I remember correctly.

I made it through just fine and learned how to control my breathing. It’s all about remaining calm in an alarming situation. My confidence was strengthened that evening. I learned other maneuvers such as how to make an escape exit when your low air vibralert goes off and you have limited time. You slide your pack to the side and take your axe and iron bar known in the service as a halligan bar feel a space in between two studs in the wall. Then you literally break through the wall.

              I learned that day what my fear was and how to work through it. To this day I still have claustrophobia with confined spaces. But I can perform the emergency exit while on breathing air equipment. Another challenge we faced in the firefighter survival course was called the “hot bottle change”. You are in a multi story building, let say the eighth floor and the vibralert alarm on your air breathing apparatus vibrates indicating your are low on air. You may not have enough breathing air to get to the ground floor for fresh air. You need a fresh full breathing air bottle right now in the acrid smoky floor you’re on. A fellow firefighter brings a spare air bottle and now you must perform a hot bottle change blindly in a dark smoky room. While you are breathing the last of the low air bottle you take one deep breath of air and while holding it you blindly unscrew the low air bottle, open the valve on the new full air bottle and screw the air hose onto the valve of the new bottle. Then you release what’s left of your old breath you held in your lungs and breathe air from the fresh air bottle. And that’s called the hot bottle change. It is not easy, in fact it is very intense and nerve racking however it can be done and I did performed it once in the firefighter survival course and passed.     

               It is a good tip to know in a desperate breathing situation where your air low, your conditions are deteriorating, smoke etc and the next breath could be your last on the tank, then you take your mask off and you succumb to smoke inhalation. A hot bottle change could save a firefighters life but I wouldn’t want to make it a habit at every fire scene.
