CARL MATHIS

Cutler Bay resident Carl Mathis, a minister and elder at Holy Ghost Tabernacle Ministries in Goulds, brought out his first book in March of last year after overcoming a personal tragedy. That book was Life Is What You Make It: Build a Better Life for You and Your Family.

“When I lost my wife in December of 2005, my life took a dramatic turn for the worse,” Mathis said. “Trying to raise three boys while grieving was not an easy task, so in a sense, I could sympathize with someone who may need to know that if I could tread the path of difficulty and come out victorious, they could also.”

His new book, Life Is What You Make It: Seven Steps to Moving Forward, will be published on Aug. 17 by Tate Publishing. The 104-page paperback will be available through Amazon.com and other booksellers.

“As I look around I see so many people who have lost a loved one or somebody who is close to them, and they are having such a difficult time coping with the separation that I felt compelled to share my story in an attempt to help someone else to overcome and move forward as I did.”

Although drawn from the challenges of his personal sorrow and fears, Mathis’s debut volume was primarily an inspirational book telling people not to give up on their dreams. The new book deals more with the grief process and how to survive it and prevail.

“My first book was generally geared to motivate anyone who needs encouragement and motivation in such a time as this,” Mathis said. “However, although everyone could benefit from reading this new book, the primary theme is to share how I was able to lift the burden and stressful thoughts and move on with my life. I am hoping that my story and how I did it could help someone in a similar situation.”

Mathis also writes feature stories for his church’s monthly newsletter, The Royal Chronicle; teaches bible classes, and spends time volunteering with Shepherd’s Care, an outreach program designed to help those in need and the homeless. Mathis also is furthering his theological studies through the National Alliance of Progressive Churches.

The book’s publisher describes Life Is What You Make It as a book that “will teach you how to overcome any crippling situation you find yourself in and stimulate personal and spiritual growth by accepting the situation, taking responsibility, conditioning your mind, choosing to make right decisions, building a team, believing, and defining the new normal.”

When you purchase the book you also get a free audio download of the book.

Leave the bad memories behind

We really don’t know the extent of the damage that could cause from trying to keep what not good for your well been, it could reach where it can cause serious health problem for you body. The body functions are very delicate and work according to the feeling that is generated from how the mind thinks.

We go through different experiences in our lives, some are positive, and some we see as negative and unpleasant. When we hang on to a negative or unpleasant experience, we are constantly thinking about it. And when we constantly think about that negative event we prevent our selves from healing.

How many pleasant memories do you recall everyday? Chances are, like most people, you have a number of unpleasant experiences that you holding on to, which are preventing you from moving forward.

The more we carry the past the worse life gets. Why? Because we filled our mind up with negative experiences, because we continually hang on to something that doesn’t allow us to move forward, in short, we carry useless baggage that’s really slowing us down.

Do not let any unfortunate situation be your down fall for life.

For to lone, many have repeatedly asking themselves these question, how did I allow this situation to enter my secret circle of life? There was a time when I could recognize and deal with a situation before it occur, but this one sneaked in under my reader right before my very eyes, now I am faced with having to deal with this situation, however, there is a solution.

Something about life that sometime seams to confused the human mind about how it operates. We find ourselves sometimes doing things we know will lead into something not so good for our life. However, the interesting issue is that our brain in limited. Why?

Study shows that only part of your memory surface can be activated at any one time.

“This limited attention span is extremely important for it means that the activated area will be a single coherent area and that single coherent area will be found in the most easily activated part of the memory surface. The most easily activated area or pattern is the most familiar one, the one which has been encountered most often, the one which has left most trace on the memory surface. And because a familiar pattern tends to be used it becomes ever more familiar. In this way the mind builds up that stock of present patterns which are the basis of code communication.

Whatever you continually think about will control you activity.

So, let’s say, if life has dealt you an unexpected situation, what you need to do is accept the situation and use it to your advantage. In other words, you situation is design only to show you how strong you could be if you just accept what it is, is what it is and cheap away towards your process of moving forward..

Do not let the situation be your down fall for life. Not accepting it will create of un healthiness.
