Some time ago my wife asked me what would make me feel like I have arrived. What is the pinnacle for me. When I told her, she said she wanted me to write it down and put it in my wallet like a check and hold it there till I reached my goal. You know what is funny I have changed that check at least 5 times over the last 3 years. I believe in positive energy. My wife has encouraged me to believe it. She is a wonderful woman who believes negative thoughts should not be let in. I used to honestly believe is was crock, but I learned it imagining the great things that I want . And guess what it works. You need to learn expectations. So with being said I want you to write the following question down and answer it honestly…
My definition of success is________________.
Good, now that you’ve answered that question compare what you’re doing each day to what you’ve written above. Will the actions you’re taking move you closer to what you wrote down? Or like so many, do you find that much of your day is made up of mostly filler, designed (either knowingly or unknowingly) to get you through to the end of each day.
Really give that some serious thought. If you find that you’re not giving ample time to tasks which are necessary to move you in the direction you want your life to be — don’t beat yourself up over it. Instead, right now — at this very moment take a real, concrete step which will lead you in the direction that you want to go. After you’ve done so, take another step!
Keep the following saying in mind — the doing of a thing makes it so… now get doing!
– It’s your life, LIVE BIG!
