Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy
Welcome to Day 455 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.
This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom
Break Free of the Shackles – Wisdom Unplugged
Thank you for joining us for our 5 days per week wisdom and legacy building podcast. This is Day 455 of our trek, and it is Tuesday and time for our 3-minute mini-trek called Wisdom Unplugged. This short nugget of wisdom includes an inspirational quote with a little additional content for today’s trek. Consider this your vitamin supplement of wisdom each Tuesday and Thursday. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget…
Today’s quote is from a Samuel Lover, who says, “Circumstances are the rulers of the weak; they are but the instruments of the wise.”
Life happens to us all. Sometimes good things happen, and sometimes not so good things occur. If you allow the circumstances of everyday life control you, then you will become a slave to the obstacles and detours of life. Those circumstances will cause you to make foolish choices and decisions that will only strengthen that shackles that bind you and prevent you from succeeding.
On the other hand, if you are wise and control those circumstances which face us all, regardless if they are good or bad, then they truly will be the instruments that will allow you to learn, to grow, to mature, and to succeed. You will be able to break free of the shackles of circumstances and live a life that is rich and satisfying. As Hebrews 12:1 instructs us, “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us.”
That’s a wrap for today’s Wisdom Unplugged. If you enjoy these quotes, I have created and published a searchable database of over 10,000 quotes that I have collected for many years. If you would like access to my database of inspirational quotes, the link is available on the main page of Wisdom-Trek.com. So encourage your friends and family to join us, and then come along tomorrow for another day of our Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.
Thank you for allowing me to be your guide, mentor, and most importantly your friend as I serve you through the Wisdom-Trek podcast and journal each day.
As we take this trek of life together, let us always:
- Live Abundantly (Fully)
- Love Unconditionally
- Listen Intentionally
- Learn Continuously
- Lend to others Generously
- Lead with Integrity
- Leave a Living Legacy Each Day
This is Guthrie Chamberlain reminding you to Keep Moving Forward, Enjoy Your Journey, and Create a Great Day Every Day! See you tomorrow for Wisdom Wednesday!
