8 Ways to Believe in Yourself When No One Else Does

Awakened Warriors Posted on December 22, 2020 by Brandon CookDecember 22, 2020avatar
Believe in yourself when nobody else does

“When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.” – Henry Ford⁣
⁣
Any skill, belief or talent that we want to master needs high volume of repetition and practice.

Believing in yourself is no different than learning an instrument, you must pick it up and play it everyday!⁣ 🤘😎🎸

With that said – here’s my short and to the point version of one of my most popular posts: 8 Ways to Believe in Yourself When Nobody Else Does

10 Things You Must Become to Live Life More Abundantly

Awakened Warriors Posted on September 2, 2018 by Brandon CookJanuary 16, 2019avatar

“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” – Jesus Christ (John 10:10)

If you’re wondering how to live life more abundantly; you are going to have to become a different person than you are now. You are going to have to start thinking differently, talking differently, and acting differently. There’s no way around it! The abundant life will only come to those who can see and feel the abundance that’s all around them, get into the flow of it, and then share that overflowing fullness with others.

People that have attained abundance in their lives no longer feel that they are lacking in anything. They know that whatever they need will come to them, and they are grateful for it in advance.

This sense of gratitude and contentment is the first and most important step to abundant living. If you develop this internal feeling of superfluity, you’ll soon come to realize that abundance is our natural state of being. It’s only the human mind’s delusion of scarcity that has warped your senses and pulled the veil over your eyes.

The World is Perfectly Imperfect

Awakened Warriors Posted on December 2, 2016 by Brandon CookJanuary 21, 2019avatar
the world is imperfectly perfect

“If you understand, things are just as they are… If you do not understand, things are just as they are.”
– Zen Proverb

Everything is as it should be. Daily life provides us with the lessons we need to learn, grow, and evolve. These experiences are necessary for our highest good and learning.

The world is perfect as it is. Many people would find it hard to agree with this statement, but that’s only because they are viewing the world through the limited perception of the human mind.

Humans create judgments about people, events and the world; labeling things in terms of being good or bad. However, “good and bad” are merely concepts and opinions that vary from person to person, place to place, time to time.

Deconstructing the Illusion of Time

Awakened Warriors Posted on March 31, 2016 by Brandon CookDecember 22, 2020avatar

“Time isn’t precious at all, because it is an illusion. What you perceive as precious is not time, but the one point that is out of time: the Now. That is precious indeed. The more you are focused on time – past and future – the more you miss the Now, the most precious thing there is.” – Eckhart Tolle

When we think of time we think of clocks ticking, alarm bells ringing, the sand draining from an hour glass, the sun setting and rising again the next day. We think back into our memories of the past and how far we’ve come. We dream of who or what or where we’ll be in the future.

We think of the history of our country, our civilization, of humanity, the planet and our ever evolving and changing universe. We think of Einstein and his theory of relativity. We think of the space-time continuum, time travel, and the movie Back to the Future! Yet, what is this phantom we call time?

Do we really have a past and a future… or just memories and aspirations of what was and potentially could be?

Is it a real, scientific phenomenon to be respected or just a fleeting delusion and construct of the human brain?

Inquiring minds want to know…

Drop Your Pebble in the Pond of the Universe

Awakened Warriors Posted on February 26, 2016 by Brandon CookDecember 22, 2020avatar
Drop your pebble in the pond of the universe

“When you drop a pebble into a pond, ripples spread out, changing all the water in the pool. The ripples hit the shore and rebound, bumping into one another, breaking each other apart. In some small way, the pond is never the same again.” – Neal Shusterman

The pebble in the pond story is just a metaphor about you finding and discovering your true and higher purpose in life. More importantly, it is about the impact that you’re going to make on society when you summon the courage to drop your pebble into the pond.

How far will the ripples of your life’s mission expand throughout the pond of the universe?

How many people will be inspired, touched, and changed for the better because you existed?

How will the world be different after you’ve shared your talents and gifts with us all?

No matter where you are in your life right now, you have deeper purpose and a latent potential that only you can fulfill. It’s up to you to figure out what that is!

Awakening to the Divine Within and Recognizing it in Others

Awakened Warriors Posted on September 2, 2015 by Brandon CookDecember 22, 2020avatar

“I looked in temples, churches & mosques. But I found the Divine within my Heart.” – Rumi

In order to change the world, we must first focus on changing ourselves. The current state of our world is just the collective reflection of everyone in it. You can’t change or control the actions of other people… you can only change or control your own behavior. So one should ultimately focus on that.

Do you see the world and our universe as a friendly place, that is supporting and nurturing you… or as a hostile one, that is condemning and hindering you?

That’s a choice of perception that will ultimately color every aspect and experience of your life. Start looking for the divine within your own heart! Once you get a glimpse of it, start learning to recognize it others; Not only within your own friends and family, yet within your perceived enemies as well.

You MUST Be Willing to Pay the Price of Victory

Awakened Warriors Posted on May 5, 2015 by Brandon CookDecember 22, 2020avatar
 “Victory is reserved for those who are willing to pay it’s price.” – Sun Tzu

After attending the awesome Victory Motorcycle ride this past weekend, I started to think a lot about VICTORY. Not only victory, but the high price of victory…. and I’m NOT merely referring to the cost of the sweet bikes you’ll see featured in this article…

What I’m talking ’bout is the price we have to pay to be victorious in life!

We all want to live the dream; to be successful in every aspect of our lives. We all want the beautiful, loving wife or strong, loyal husband, the luxurious home, the sweet, pimped out ride and the lean, hard physique of an awakened warrior or goddess.

We ALL want it (or some version of it)… yet only a small percentage of us will ever make it our reality!

My Dog Died Today (Rest in Peace Baby Soma)

Awakened Warriors Posted on February 1, 2015 by Brandon CookDecember 22, 2020avatar

“What we have loved and enjoyed, we can never lose… all that we love deeply, becomes a part of us.”
– Helen Keller

My dog died today when I made the final decision to put her down. It was a tough decision for me… and at first, I had high hopes that she might recover from what I hoped was just a cold or infection.

Although, after a few vet trips, blood test and the seriousness of her symptoms – it became imminently clear that Soma was in a lot of pain and wasn’t going to make it.

It was her time to go and my time to let her go!

Once I realized this it became a lot easier for me to make the call and take her to the emergency vet to put an end to her suffering. Even then, saying goodbye to my sweet, baby Soma was a lot harder than I ever imagined it would be.

3 Enlightening Health Benefits of Hiking and Being in Nature

Awakened Warriors Posted on December 1, 2014 by Brandon CookDecember 1, 2014avatar

“Wilderness is not a luxury, but a necessity of the human spirit, and as vital to our lives as water and good bread.” – Edward Abbey

As I started out on the trail, slivers of the sun shone through the tall, almost naked trees. I peered out across the calm, stillness of the lake as it glistened in the fading warmth of the autumn sun.

My two dogs, oblivious to the magic of this all, were more interested in the smells recently left at the base of a near oak tree. 😆

Suddenly, I knew this was a special moment…. a moment that needed to be captured and remembered on film. As I took out my now obsolete iPhone 3Gs, I wondered…

Why? What made this moment any more special than the other hundred hikes I’ve had around this very same lake on this very same trail?
