Recently I was visiting my brother, I had the rare opportunity to sit in total silence - - no television - no radio - no talking - only the gentle hum of the air conditioning unit - an occasional car going by and a lone bird chirped in the distance welcoming the day.
It had been two years since I have been home. It was good to be back. Not matter how often or how long it has been, I always allow my thoughts to thumb through the scenarios of the past, the present and even thoughts of the future. This rare extravagant ritual gives a cleansing of my soul and a renewal of who I am and where I am going.
This particular morning my thoughts focused on all the influences one is bombarded with from moment we arrive in this world to the time we leave this present world - Each and every one impact the shaping who - what and why we are. Thus forming the DNA of our Character.
Character Mr. Webster says is the mental and moral qualities distinctive to an individual. The distinctive nature of something.
DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) is said to be the self-replicating material present in nearly all living organisms as the main constituent of chromosomes. It is the carrier of genetic information
As I continued to ponder, it became clear that our Character DNA is also unique to each one of us just as our physical DNA is unique. It is the carrier of our character information. Character DNA has one unique quality that is so awesome unlike physical DNA.
Character DNA can be changed and filtered/changed totally on how any and all influences affect us. Very Cool! The choice of how our Character DNA can be controlled by our own self only if we filter in the good and filter out all those negatives that want to paralyze our whole entire being. Good or bad right or wrong it is our choice.
Since that rare quiet morning in Atlanta, I have continued understand all the different influences we experience and how many times we allow these influences effect our every day life - thus affecting our Character DNA.
So I would then ask, Do we just become puppets allowing all those influences to keep us from taking control? Do we even want to have control over our Character DNA?
What keeps us from putting a stop these influence that want to paralyze us - keeping us from trying to control our Character DNA? Knowing full well that it also keep us from enjoying everything in our life? Are we too lazy? Do we not care enough about our own selves? More often than not, we allow our selves to fall prey to those influences. We fall prey to the "The Puppet Syndrome" and our Character DNA is out of control - not controlled by ourselves. The truth is, the majority of folks accept the "Puppet Syndrome" and those outside influences to control their Character DNA.
We have spent billions of dollars on books, magazines, we have watched hundred of hours of talk and reality shows, searched out websites, blogs of thoughts and opinions of the why and what that makes us what we are. We buy into it running and searching and spending our hard earn dollars to find out how to fix us and how to break free from The Puppet Syndrome.
Now don't get me wrong,some of these sources are really excellent, but others just enhance those negative - paralyzing influences - adding even another layer of tangled strings that bind us.
WARNING! Taking control of our Character DNA might actually free you of all those puppet stings and you will begin enjoying your life - enjoy who you are!
As I see it, it is so simple and it is so clear! We can make these three simple steps and we are on your way to having a very healthy Character DNA! But it is not simple - some of us have been Puppets for a long time.
Although I do love those 3 little monkeys - You know the ones I am talking about.
Watch your eyes - Watch your mouth - Watch your ears.
Don't LAUGH ME OFF NOW. That wise old adage - The three little monkeys - Speak No Evil - Hear No Evil - See No Evil! It is a great rule of thumb in living our everyday life and controlling our Character DNA.
NO DON'T BURY YOUR HEAD IN THE SAND !
OK - Let me ask you some simple questions - be very honest with yourself. . . .
Your Mouth:
Do you allow your mouth to speak negative words about your life - about others - about just the simplest events in your life? How do you "feel" afterwards"?
Do you spend time tell others about all the bad - negative happenings - how angry you are - whether personal or otherwise. Do you feel better afterwards? (I am not talking about confiding in that one accountability person) Are you telling anyone and every one that will listen?
Do you just grumble and complain about the littlest experiences? Do these little experiences throw your whole day - your whole week off?
Your Ears:
Do you allow yourself to be influenced by what others tell you - what you hear on the news - talk shows, etc. What the weatherman says? Afterwards did you wish you had not allowed them to influence you but it is too hard to change now?
Your Eyes:
Do you allow yourself to be influenced by what you read - watch on TV and Internet? Are you seeking out shows and books and websites you would not want anyone to know about?
Are you allowing the events and circumstance of everyday to have such an effect on your life that you become fearful - negative - angry - bitter?
If you have answered yes - then you are allowing those influences to put puppet strings on your life - begin to tangle and control YOUR Character DNA.
STOP NOW! Take Control of YOUR Character DNA!!
As Joan Rivers use to say, "CAN WE TALK?"
For more years than I would even like to admit, I allowed circumstances, other people, events in my life to attach many puppet strings. I became a tangle mess. I did not know who I was - what I was or why I was. . . The harder I struggled, the more tangled the mess - my Character DNA was so overloaded with Life Puppet Strings it was choking the very emotional - spiritual and physical life out of me.
Anger Strings - Forgiveness Strings - Pity Party Strings - on and on - tangling and tightening every day!
How I wish I could tell you that my fairy godmother came in and waved her magic wand and I was totally transformed. Even when I took the right steps, it took years to grasp and understand that I did not have to allow any influence to put negative poisonous DNA strings into my Character.
Yes - Many times I would take one foot forward and then fall back and allow old strings - influences to reattach themselves.
Even though we are not totally void of influences, we do have the ability to choose how those influences feeds into it. We can cut all strings and influences - we are able to be the unique person we were created to be and our Character DNA can accent our life.
Remember we DO have a choice how any influences is going to affect our choices, our actions and our reactions. You CAN CUT YOURSELF FREE!!
Finally, just let me add - controlling your Character DNA is not a one time shot. Everyday one must keep a good check on their Character DNA.
Look at yourself!
What has influenced your Character DNA - Are you allowing the past - those folks who hurt you - angered you - being done wrong - to control your Character?
