Positively Good Productions

If God is not in the forefront... 

we don't need to take another step.

God is wiser.

God's greatness is beyond 

comprehension or explanation.

 God's greatness is

unfathomable.

 Throughout our journey of life, we will be 

challenged and tested. Along this journey our 

 courage, strength, integrity, and faith will be

 challenged. Life does not ask what we want

 of it. Each day life presents us with a freshly 

turned page with many opportunities and 

undertakings to experience, and kindness

 to replicate.

Formal education expands us, sharpens us, 

helps us to develop alternative skills, and

 stimulates the intellectual self. It is a knowledge

 source which helps us to learn things in a 

disciplined way.

Learning theories through formal education has

 its own importance, but needless to say, experience... 

learning to have courage in the face of adversity,

understanding the positive aspects of aging,

Healthy aging includes 

life-long learning! 

A life lesson is just what it sounds like... lessons

 learned in life. Life lessons are based on the idea 

of learning from our experiences and mistakes.

These lessons could be described as defining 

moments that are remembered. In many ways, 

our life’s purpose is our lesson, and vice-versa.

Pain can become a great teacher.

There’s a reason that expression exists: 

because it’s TRUE!

God can take a terrible situation and turn 

it into a blessing. The Phoenix can rise from 

its ashes... transformed, strengthened and renewed.

What satan meant for evil... God can turn it into

 a blessing. From darkness springs light. 

Much of the worry, regret, heartache, suffering,

and unhappiness in people’s lives is caused by

 an unwillingness to learn from mistakes. Some

 people are notorious for doing the same things

 over and over again... expecting different results. 

Illnesses, broken relationships, persecution, 

death, grief, betrayal, divorce, 

mistakes, regrets, blues, and financial 

struggles are some of the trials and 

tough times that can inevitably cause us to 

emerge from sleep. 

When all is said and done, we may come to 

realize... there are scores of us, regardless 

of our station in life, who have endured 

many of the same hardships.

ourselves better. Many of our lessons learned 

are through the consequences of our actions 

or reactions. Many of our life lessons can help 

us gain insight into how we can be mindful 

of our thoughts, ideas, and reactions to

 situations. This helps us to determine the

 validity of a situation or how much time 

or energy we should be giving to it. 

The importance of learning

 life lessons can not be 

understated.

Life-long learning has repeatedly shown 

the utmost worth. It has continually proven itself to 

be a tremendously beneficial aspect of life 

itself. This is why, with great intentionality, 

we should try to remain teachable and open to 

lessons in everything we do and experience.

Failure is an incredibly 

powerful tool for learning. 

Much of the suffering and unhappiness in 

people’s lives are caused by an unwillingness 

to learn from mistakes. Most of us can agree 

that some of the hard, disappointing, painful,

 and difficult personal experiences we have 

gone through... have become incredibly 

liberating, transformative, valuable life and 

character building lessons we would not

have learned any other way than through 

experience... going via the quiet crucible 

of testing and suffering.

Be careful when we blindly follow the 

masses. Those who follow the crowd will 

usually get no further than the crowd. The 

one who walks alone, knows that he is 

never alone, and will likely find himself 

in places no one has ever been. 

Undesirable consequences, reactions, repercussions, 

after-effects, punishments, and/or fallout have no 

deadlines and never seems to lose an address. 

The negative energies, when sent out into the universe, 

will reap an equivalent or more of that. It can and more

likely will come back.

When we are constantly on the go,

immersed in mundane activities, 

life can get away from us very 

quickly!

The older I get the more I enjoy the many benefits 

that comes from spending time alone. Freedom is 

considered to be one of the benefits of solitude;

freedom from the distractions of the world has the 

potential to spark creativity.

I appreciate and find solace in solitude and take 

advantage of all that solitude has to offer. I 

find it wholesome to be quiet and free of outside 

opinions, constraints, influences, and distractions. 

Quiet time affords us time to connect with God. 

It is a time for reflection. It is a time to meditate on 

our innermost thoughts and feelings, which can 

generate greater self-awareness. It is always 

spiritually enlightening, when we take the time

 to quietly ponder the meaning and purpose of 

our existence and our calling in life. 

There is a time for silence. Being alone is

 not a death sentence. Alone time, with 

ourselves, gives us the chance to develop 

the self, focus, recharge, clear out the mind-

clutter and think clearly. Quiet time gives us 

an opportunity to become clearer and more 

advanced in our thinking. It allows our minds

 to escape distractions. 

It is difficult to hear, to research, read, reflect,

 or unleash creativity and produce with ongoing 

distractions and busyness. Solitude has the 

power to decrease negativity in life while

renewing and replenishing us. 

Solitude can be thought of, by some, as 

undesirable because it is often linked with 

loneliness, but there is a significant difference... 

a world of difference between the two. 

For me, solitude does not entail feelings of 

loneliness. It is essential. It is a chosen state 

of being alone... without being lonely. It is a 

beautiful, pleasurable... very enjoyable, positive

and constructive way to regain perspective,

 maintain some semblance of balance, explore, 

know and grow ourselves. Solitude can lead 

to peace of mind and personal growth. 

I welcome it.

Solitude provides an exhilarating experience

 for the mind, body and soul. And as quiet as it is kept, 

we all need periods of solitude, once in a while.

One of the biggest lessons we can ultimately

 learn is that while we can't control everything, 

we can control our response to things.
