It’s amazing how time and time again life insists on throwing curve ball after curve ball. Life is truly a series of lessons. It is up to each person to decide to learn the lesson or take the class over. The SELF, INC. Life Program states that one can be internally regulated. That means that one’s Spirit can truly be the leader and decision-maker in their life. It is what will keep them steady when they fall down, or fail or something doesn’t go their way, or someone breaks their heart. A person’s mind is full of excuses and reasons to blame the world, others, circumstances or God when one finds themselves faced with a challenge. It takes discipline and commitment to oneself to hold their ground and stay true to themselves, their morals and standards. Each person is the one who decides how to respond to this or that. Not the other way around.

Of course it’s not always that easy. In fact, there are some extraordinary cases where individuals are forced to bend to the forces outside of themselves. Earthquakes, layoffs, acts of terrorism, crime and divorces are such examples. If an employer decides to lay off someone, there is little one can do except move on. If a partner decides to leave to be with someone else without looking back, the heartbroken person needs to find the strength to ride the storm and get through the pain without losing themselves. If one lets their Mind choose how they act or react, 9 out of 10 times it will be the wrong way to go. That person will only find themselves in a worse state. A human’s Spirit though is a higher state of being. Spirits are made of pure love and love conquers all things no matter what the outcome. The SELF, INC. Life Program Handbook explains how one can live their life with their Spirit leading their Mind as their Body follows. It offers a self-help life management program that is easy-to-apply. The Program itself is dedicated to personal growth and success in all areas of life. Again no one said it was going to be easy, but a person has a choice when they fall. They can either draw from the power within their own Spirit and stand up for their right to love and live life with a positive attitude or be a victim. It is always easier to play the victim because it offers a way to get off the hook.

As a participant of the human race, one needs to be willing to share about their trials and victories in order to inspire others to never quit even when it seems like everyone and everything and quit on them. No matter who somebody is, they can always be a teacher as well as a student. Lessons learned by others can impact other people’s lives in a profound way. The question one should always ask themselves when faced with a challenge is, “what lesson can be learned from this?”

My name is Athena Kapantas and I’m the President of the SELF, INC. Life Program (http://www.selfinclifeprogam.com) a self-help, personal growth program. I wrote the Handbook about the Program 10 years ago, decided to to add some insights that I have gained and publish it. My articles reflect those insight.
