harnessing my power to succeed
As
you are probably beginning to realise, by knowing and accepting
who you are today, you can make informed and purposeful choices
to create your fulfilling life. Every experience which follows
an informed choice, can be viewed as a learning experience from
which you can benefit in some way, whatever happens. What might
once have been viewed by you as a 'bad' outcome can be seen as
a lesson in life which will influence your future choices, allowing
you to be 'successful'. In this context you may like to ponder
the following description of success which really puts things
in perspective:
Success is -
- bringing out the best in others, being naturally compassionate,
- being true to myself, giving and receiving love,
- laughing often and much, learning from my mistakes,
- rising above fear of failure and ideas of what others expect,
- earning the respect of other people,
- enjoying the affection of children, taking time to appreciate beauty,
- taking pleasure in the simple things of life, giving unconditionally,
- leaving the world a better place, whether by creating a wonderful child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition, knowing that even one life has breathed easier because I have lived
– this is to have succeeded!
Focusing
on now and forever, I can choose a life
of based on fear, need and excuses or I can choose a life of positive
creation and success - which do I want? These are the questions
I'm choosing to answer:
Am I prepared to work out what I really want and 'go for it'?
Am I really open to the idea of learning new things?
Can I develop in a way that is different to the pattern of my
past life?
Am I ready to discard old ideas that are no longer relevant to
my present situation?
Am I prepared to take responsibility for my physical body and
my mental health?
Am I ready to start creating my new
life – YES!
