The Power of Buzzwords
Buzzwords are a form of mental prompts that empower you to look to yourself for answers and propel you to action in a positive and proactive way. With the present-day challenges of our world and the most recent results in the U.S. Election, I bring you the buzzword “Move It Forward” from my book's Life section. There are many times in our life when we question the direction it takes—a direction that is at times in our control, and at other times not. No matter which, we can not let events paralyze us, we must stand up with fortitude and determination to continue onwards and rise to meet this moment. I share this buzzword to empower you not to give up but to strengthen yourself to the challenges ahead with the knowledge that a brighter tomorrow comes with the love of self, others, community, country, and the world in which we live.
This month’s buzzword is:
Move It Forward
In life, we experience wonderful, enriching moments and challenging ones. It is these challenging experiences that can weigh us down like accumulating baggage. We need to sift through these experiences to find answers, clarity, understanding, and hopefully, a resolution, if not with others, then at the very least with ourselves. We need to forgive ourselves and others for what we did not know at the time and collect new knowledge along the way, like gold nuggets of wisdom. So, as this buzzword suggests, “Move It Forward.” It is not what happens in life but what we do that builds and strengthens us. Yes, there will always be a period of time that needs to be respected as we sort through any given situation and those feelings attached to it, but then action must be taken. Do not let events define and paralyze you, as it is in the moving forward after adversity and struggle where real growth and success happen.
