Why is it…? #1

…when a person is not regularly bowing to, worshipping, or even idolizing some collective, man-made creation, that those who are adherents, arrogantly assume and insist that this person must be “lost,” backsliding, or deceived?

simplicity

It takes a certain amount of self-control to remain simple. A lot of people tend to complicate their lives by reaching for lofty internal expectations while often buckling to shallow external situations. They then attempt to medicate and soothe the resulting disappointment by setting up more distractions disguised as “to-do’s.”

searching

There is a distinct and obvious difference in purpose and intensity when one is searching for something versus simply looking for something. A person looks for things they’ve lost whereas one searches for something they’ve yet to find. Looking is to retrieve and is largely external. Searching is to discover and is largely internal. We have to inside to really find that which we’re searching for.

contempt following investigation?

There’s nothing more noble about blind faith than there is about healthy skepticism. Requiring evidence prior to proclaiming absolute adherence to something is the most intelligent and admirable position of all.

the “RockStar” Way

My name is Tom Leu, and this is the “RockStar” Way™… where music and motivation meet. This blog is for those interested in topics relating to personal development, inspiration, motivation, spirituality, pop culture, and rock-n-roll. This is about life and about a lifestyle. My intent is to encourage people to be the best at what they do the best… to be “rock stars” in the real-world. This is success psychology and personal development turned up to 10! If you like to be inspired and challenged with compelling, provocative, and relevant posts that rock… then this is the place for you!

BTW… I’ve used other blogging services with disappointing results. I really dig the overall ease with which WordPress operates. I highly recommend it for those considering a new blog. Rule #1: if it isn’t easy, it won’t get used. With over 3 million blogs currently up at this time, WordPress is obviously easy and being used. Glad to be a part of the family. Read. Listen. Learn.
