Everlasting Youth is in My Head

Everlasting youth is in my head.A world of fantastical journeysthat exist between the living and the dead.Each story's message is the same.To reach the arc ahead, I must understand my pain. - Positive Masters, Jon Riki Karamatsu, 9/7/2020 -Children are curious, eager to learn, open minded, and imaginative. I strongly believe it's beneficial to have these qualities as adults. Combine them with your life experiences to get creative with your life, career, and business. As a teen or adult, you have the ability to go deep into your soul and analyze the benefits that can come out of your emotional pain. I had all of this in mind when I wrote the poem I posted.Enjoy the Positive Masters universe here at www.positivemasters.com...

Don't scold yourself or others for falling short of your standards.

Cognitive Distortions - Part 8Don't scold yourself or others for falling short of your standards.  Do you find yourself telling yourself, "I should've done this" or "I should've done that"? These type of words and the tone of them can create unnecessary frustration in your life. When you have goals, it's human to fall short at times. No one achieves everything they want.

Don't scold them for falling short of your standards. I repeat "your standards," which could be blown out of proportion (another cognitive...

Remember when we were young, dreaming of all the things we would do. We talked outside of my parents' house really late until the hidden sun's faint glow turned the skies dark blue. Now, years later, we can look back and smile for doing all the things we wanted to do. Ahead of us, bigger dreams, bigger goals. Let's keep pushing forward, through our ebbs and flow. For as long as we exist, we'll continue to grow. - poem, +positive masters, Jon Riki Karamatsu, 2/14/2020 - While talking with my good friend Brandon Mitsuda, I took a picture of this night rainbow, created by the misty white glow from the big moon in Waikele, Hawaii on Monday February 10, 2020....

The only way to know whether you'll attain your greatest dream that's very difficult to get is by working at it for a very long time and confronting the negativity that comes with the process.

The only way to know whether you'll attain your greatest dream that's very difficult to get is by working at it for a very long time and confronting the negativity that comes with the process.What you want has a high chance of failure, enough to make you very uncomfortable. The process will cost you money and stress on your mental and physical health. It'll require at least 7 years of hard work, meaning thousands and thousands of hours of sweat, both mentally and physically. You'll live on only what you need, spend less time with friends, face negative events and people, and go in and out of darkness facing your demons. Remember, you're expected to fail after all of this....
