On this December 23rd, I wanted to come to you with a message about faith.
Maybe you have been blogging on steemit for a while with little to no rewards or maybe you are going through a tough time in your life. We all share in our humanity the burden that life is rough, full of suffering and injustice and that no matter what we try to do, all we can do is trying to minimize unnecessary suffering.
In life, we have the choice of living by faith or living in despair. It is up to us to make that choice of picking up our cross and move forward even when we do not have the evidence of our hope in front of us.
Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.
Hebrew 11:1
Faith is that principle, that exercise of mind and soul, which has for its object things not seen but hoped for, and which, instead of sinking under them, whether from their difficulty or from their uncertainty, stands firm under them—supports and sustains their pressure—in other words, is assured of, confides in and relies on them.
Would it be from a spiritual point of view or just towards your life goals, you have to live by faith...move forward, take in the feedback that reality is presenting you and adjust your actions accordingly until you are realizing measurable progress towards your meaningful goal.
The Set of the Sail
I thought I would drop this here for you because I believe that what can make the biggest difference for me and you moving into 2018 is our philosophy.
At one of the lowest point in my life, this man helped me think differently...
Conclusion
This is short and sweet, I will come back with some tools and ideas to help you make 2018 your best year ever. Let me know in the comments below what you thought of that little 3 minute clip above.
I always keep faith no matter how bad things get because if I made it this far , God will guide me through every struggle . Some people over time loose faith which is the worst thing ever because once u turn from faith , going back and believing is very difficult

Oh yes, a wonderful post and a theme of faith have always touched me sincerely! I thought about this a lot and believe that we get what we believe from life. You believe that life is beautiful and beautiful. You believe that she is terrible, she is terrible. You believe that there is no way out and you will not find a way out. You believe that there is a way out, you will certainly see it. You are waiting for trouble, she will definitely come. You're afraid of getting sick, you'll get sick. You believe in success and you will create it. You are waiting for happiness and it is already on your way to you! Our faith creates our reality! Thank you @cryptoctopus

If I wasnt already upvoting you, I would simply for the Jim Rohn reference. Great job on that.
I want to thank you for posting this. After seeing the "flag" war that occurred this week, it is easy to get discouraged with what is going on here. We need to remain true to our reason for being here. This blockchain is going to be one of the forces changing the world. STEEM will be absolutely incredible for people. Even a little bit of SP, in my opinion, will be valuable.
Nothing happens without adversity. That simply is a part of life. In the pursuit of any goal, things ebbs and flow.
Whatever the term or the significance of it to the individual, the bottom line is progressing forward with an idea while not knowing how things will turn out yet expecting it to be positive.
For those with religious or spiritual leanings, this time of year has special meaning. However, even for those without, it is a good time for reflection upon how we are now compared to what we would like to be. For those of us dedicated to steemit, how can we uplift our behavior on here to make this place special. Recreating Facebook Part 2 isnt in our best interest. Blockchain is creating a new paradigm freeing people from the tyranny of the banking system. Because of that, I feel, it is up to us to break ourselves free of the mindset the banksters and their minnions (media, advertisers, educational system, etc) instill in us.

I'm new here, but loving this community. What is a flag war if I may ask?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

A flag is locate to the right of each post. When you flag a post, you are essentially downvoting that post. Hence, the person loses whatever your vote is worth in reward.
People get into battles and it goes back and forth, with others joining in on each side. Hence the term war applied to it.
It is nasty and like all wars, in the end, nobody really wins.
A tough lesson for me but I am learning to avoid them. To truly take this place to the level it needs to go, we need to see a move uplifting behavior. Steemit success is based upon helping others, not oneself.

While I was reading what you wrote about faith, I was thinking faith is what you do. Then the first words on the video confirmed, faith is what you do, not what happens to you.

I really enjoy your message, and the references you use to further your discussion. It's also full of positivity and encouragement for a new-born community, but I'd just like to land my criticism and attention on your use of the word "Faith", while discussing the power of self, similar to the law of attraction.
In my opinion, Faith is a word that should be kept for Religious matters. Subjects where one needs to tell you about for you to believe. "Faith" is believing because told, and not because of an internal discovery or advancement.
Thus, looking at your tags, I don't believe Faith and Philosophy can be used to describe a one and same thing, as Faith is believing when told, whereas Philosophy is questioning everything.
Still great post though

well @cryptocoopus, It's important to question what you believe so that you can know whether or not you really believe it. In fact, faith is often born out of questions and also God delights in answering the prayer of faith.

softly off topic, but this how to ride the sea.
Sea Fever
John Masefield
I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking.
I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.

Wao had never read of Jim Ronh See video made me think a lot and I encourage that I can succeed and that we can help others also have successes in their dreams and we have the beautiful platform of Steemit to be successful, creating winners making a difference.

My first weeks on steemit was not easy at all. You might spend 2 hours researching and after posting you get $0.02. It was frustrating at first until I got inspired by my mentors and today any of my post earns at least @1.50.
I kept my faith strong and it still keeps me going.

The same challenges and opportunity hit us but the difference is our philosophy, we must change our philosophy to make a change.
In 2018, faith will be needed, faith should be added to our philosophy for the year, with this success is sure.

This is something I figured out long ago. I know it to be true.
The problem with me is that I go through long periods without tending the sails at all.
I'm getting better. The last five years of my life have seen more positive change than ever before, but I have a long way to go.
This is another reason I'm thankful for Steem. It gives me hope. I am more excited about Steem than I have been about anything in years. And that excitement is spreading to other aspects of my life.
The hope I have felt since I started here has changed how I think of things. I am more positive.
In truth it couldn't have happened at a better time. With the recent death of my mother I was in a dark place. In truth I still very much am. Without the hope and focus that Steem has given me I don't know where I would be.
I see people who are working on something great.
I see a light at the end of the tunnel.
I have a reason to keep tending the sails.
Thanks for the post.
Keep the faith.
Keep Steeming!

The 3 minutes clip were awesome... Whatsoever happen it unfold opportunity, whether you want to change your life and take the opportunity that is being given is entirely up to you..
How can i make my life better, 16 years ago, i have set myself to be a successful person, years by years the goal is nearing but never achieved, but faith i would have, to cross this journey, which i know one day i would be there, on success platform.
That day i shall think about the entire journey, smile and thank God for whom He have made me become.. But even that moment i shall realize im just renting the success from Him for a fraction of moment, and that is not entirely belongs to me..
Would wait for your tools and ideas.. :)

Oh my God... I am glad i read this..
You know i love the bible version that reads:
Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen, for by it the elders obtain a good testimony..
That verse states it all and it is obvious that if we can have little faith,eve as small as the mustard seed then things will definitely fall in place..
And to further burst my brain
That was actually very true... Thanks so much for sharing this

I have no income, only multiplication.
"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," says the LORD Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it."
Malachi 3:10
That's what I did and everything I touch multiplies in value.

Back in 2011 I join Facebook and starting earning online as a freelancer. After spending almost 7 years on different channels of Social Media. I earned good money from there. In July, 2017 I came to know about steemit and believe me in November, 2017 I left everything and fully focused on steemit. This is so awesome platform that even one can earn money by commenting.
In my family members almost 5 people have joined and working on it. We believe on it and we should take it with next level. All the best for sharing such a wonderful blog post dear @cryptoctopus. Stay Blessed!

You can not connect the points of your destiny, if you look forward, you can connect them only in retrospect. So we must believe that these points somehow, yes, they will unite in the future. You have to believe in something - in your courage, destiny, karma, whatever. This principle has never failed me and changed my whole life

Yup, we cannot change our external circumstances like what Jim Rohn said. The only thing we can change is ourselves. However, change is always hard. Nevertheless, one tiny incremental action every day can result in a huge change in 2 or 3 years time. Awesome post!

Very right, in fact I believe in faith but not too much, what I believe is your attitude towards life, something happening in life can be tackled with a smile or by lying hand on the head and crying in front of all.
And the 2nd important aspect is its always going to be good, what's happening is good, the best part to live happily is seeing you good times, the memories let us lay down all the pain.

Two things are key in achieving one's set goals and these are FOCUS and PERSISTENCE. We need these two tools to live our day to day life. We all have ups and downs in 2017 but that should not halt our plans and goals we must persist and focus. Most steemians stopped creating contents on their blogs when they get little or no upvotes/comments on their blogs in the first few months - they could not persist, hence, they lost focus.This is my second month here in steemit and i'd admit that it has not been rosy but im focused. I have a goal and im going to achieve it. No going back, As we approach 2018, we should start anew and in style. Thanks for sharing the video, it is worthy of reflection. #OWB

"The same wind blows on us all and the difference on where will we arrive is not in the wind but in how we set the sails." - I like it, but what I like more is this quote: "Learn to be the fish. See how the current goes in your river and adjust slightly to swim in the best possible direction."
Why I like the second quote more? The second part is the same in both quotes, but the first part isn't. "The same wind blows on us" - I can't agree with this, we do have many different winds (starting points, positive and negative events in our lives) in the world. "See how the current goes in your river" - you are where you are, accept that, and do the best you can in a given situation! Aaand hope, don't despair, as you well pointed out!

I would like to take a moment to illucidate the MOST IMPORTANT aspect of one's faith is the object thereof which is Christ and Him crucified accomplishing redemption at calvary for His people.
Without that particular faith, it is not just hard to please God. It is literally IMPOSSIBLE as may be noted from verse 6. I'm glad you have taken to time to write about faith. May God bring the increase.

Truly, now i understand why certain people emerge gloriously and so victorious.little i did i know that everybody : the whale and minnows encounter challenges but the question is what do you do about it.do you sit and be mourning or stand up and gather courage by yourself and make a positive impact.No wonder why my mentor always says this " am not saying that your excuse is not genuine but what are you doing about it.this made me to take 100% responsibility of the level where i am now ,knowing that : it is not my uncle ,or whale who keep me where i am but me is the one that holds myself down .Because ,it is easy to pass blame on someone but not realizing your 100% responsibility to yourlife

“Faith is the ability to see things that don’t yet exist. Faith, though, can turn difficulty into reality, positive reality.” -- Jim Rohn
Not heard of this man lot but I really agree with this quote. I've watched a lots of videos on this topic and the best one on it was by my all time favorite Tony Robbins. He explained the bigger picture of how our belief can make us take/don't take any action and to what extent. Faith is a seed that will bring/don't bring fruit. In a nutshell, it's the extent of faith that differentiates does from losers. Faith is the key ingredient of success and a must have trait of leaders.
I'm taking the opportunity to share this video withe everybody here because this changed my thinking and my life and I hope does the magic for you too:

this is wise wisdom, I support your words, on my own I would add that for me, faith is something more, this is what makes people get up in the morning from bed and go into a world full of dangers and injustice in order to fight for their place under the sun. Faith is the greatest that is, only thanks to it were made the most glorious feats and discoveries, faith moved peoples and nations, faith promoted the healing of the bolt people, very sick people. In our world, it is Faith - what should be firmly and uninterruptedly settled in the head and soul of everyone. It does not matter who and what you believe, most importantly do not forget to believe in yourself. Thank you very much, these are deep thoughts. I wish to believe and not to go out of my way

It's extremely difficult to accomplish anything without some level of faith. If life has no meaning why not give it one? I believe this to be our purpose here, to define a purpose that fulfills us.
I can't watch the video but I've got his name from the comments, I will check him out when I get home :-) Nice post

For we walk by faith, not by sight...(2 Corinthians 5:7 ) Affirmations and Confirmations are awesome as well! =)

I definitely need to change the setting of my "sail" in my work life and a couple of other areas. I already knew this but watching this video was a nice reminder of that on the first day of a 10 day break I have from work. I'm working on my plans for the coming year and hopefully I'll have my sail set in the right direction to maximize my potential.
Thanks for the inspiration!

I've been inspired by Jim Rohn, but haven't seen a whole lot of success in the normal business world.
Crypto is different. I got into crypto just six months ago and I am having success that I didn't think was possible. I have had faith in myself and in the Scriptures for years and I have benefited from that faith, just not financially up until this year. Maybe there were some lessons I needed to learn and some humility to acquire before my time for success came.
Great to see you quote from Hebrews 11. It's one of my favorite passages of Scripture.

I like a verse who say.
As for the man of pride, my soul has no pleasure in him; but the upright man will have life through his good faith. Faith can move the mountains of frustration, if we remain positive attitude and trying to help other people to continue believing and persevere, I'm sure we will find greater satisfaction and reward in life. thank you my friend

I think it's good, simple and very applicable to our daily lives. I'm not an atheist but I'm also not religious person. I just love philosophy and if my understanding is correct some of my beliefs coincides with what Jim is saying. Chance. It's like the wind sometimes it brings opportunity, sometimes disaster. But there's a catch and that is we wouldn't know what will come. Setting the sail right at that moment when we face the wind whether it's a wind of opportunity or disaster is what is important. Sorry for the long comment. I really enjoyed the vid. Thanks for sharing :)

One of my favourite verses too. Hebrews 11:1 I have always known about it scripturally and until my son is born with CDH and given 30%-50% survival that the scripture become my experience. Really have to set the sail daily or else it will crash and sink. Thanks for this post a great reminder.
