Life is a Theatre

Invite Your Audience Carefully.
Not everyone is healthy enough to have a front row seat in your life.
There are some people in your life who need to be loved from a DISTANCE.
It is amazing what you can accomplish when you
let go of - or minimize your time with
- those draining, negative, incompatible,
'not-going- anywhere' relationships or friendships.
Observe the relationships around you.
Pay close attention...
Which ones lift, and which ones lean?
Which ones encourage, and which ones discourage?
Which ones are on a path of growth uphill, and which ones are going downhill?
When you leave certain people, do you feel better or feel worse?
Which ones always have drama, or don't really
understand, know or appreciate you & the gifts that lie within you?
Remember that the people you have around you will have
an impact on your life, your values and your income.
So, be careful when choosing the people you hang out with,
as well as the information with which you will feed your mind.
We should not share our dreams with negative people,
nor feed our minds with negative thoughts.
The more you seek quality, respect, growth, peace of mind,
love and truth around you...
the easier it will become for you to decide who gets to
sit in the FRONT ROW, and who should be moved to the balcony of your life.
Ask your God for wisdom and discernment,
and choose wisely the people who will sit in the front row of your life.
You cannot change the people around you...
but you CAN change the people you choose to be around!
WHO IS IN YOUR FRONT ROW?
