The things successful people do...

Successful people simply do those things that unsuccessful people aren't willing to do. Successful people don't necessarily feel like doing these certain things either, they just realize they must be done to reach their goal. 1. Taking risks....in order to move from where they are to where they want to be. 2. Putting activities associated with their goals ahead of things that aren't. 3. Doing away with their excuses 4. Socializing and networking w/ people who are successful 5. Reading, learning, studying and more reading learning and studying. 6. Consistently working at it every day even when they don't see immediate results, this go wrong, or they fail.

YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE !!

Simply put, you were born to live !!...not simply to exist. Dust of those hopes and dreams that you put aside and abandoned to assume the mundane and mediocre of the daily rat race. Go after that pursuit of happiness that belongs to you. Don't deny yourself by consulting those who never tried, those that envy, those that are disgruntled, and those that salt their vocabulary with bitterness and blame. Live life because it was given to you. Live life because it is valuable and shouldn't be squandered. Do what you have never tried before. Attempt again what you once gave up on. Increase you experiences, enhance your livelihood through your actions. Be more than you were yesterday. Be all that you can. Use your breath to experience all your eyes can see and reach the heights you have only visualized in your mind. YOU WERE BORN TO LIVE !!

Fear At the Decision Table

Your fears are in place to keep you comfortable, to keep you where you are, to prevent you from harm and danger. However, most of the those fears we have are unfounded, unproven, and are simply strong emotions attached more to the place you're in than to the idea of moving into unexplored environments. Decisions are about moving forward, and making progress. No matter who we are or what we have experienced we are all interested in improving ourselves in some way. In order to make decisions that will move us forward we must make a conscious effort to dismiss our fears from the conference table when we make our bold decisions. The majority of the time our fears will not inform us of the danger or risk of staying in place...especially if that place is comfortable. Our fears will allow us to stay in an O.K or good place and jeopardize the opportunity to move on to a great place. It is very difficult to ignore your fears 100% of the time. Therefore you must excuse them from the room like a child when you are making decisions that are meant to improve your well being, future, and bring you closer to accomplishing your goals.

Don't risk your happiness !!

Don't risk your happiness spending time doing things you do not want to do, with people you don't want to be with. Too often we value the pay check and or benefits we receive from an organization more than our happiness. If the job you have is not fullfilling that deep down desire and/or the person you are with has demonstrated time and time again that they are not the one ...then why are you there ? Why are you with them? You staying in place means that that job or person means more to you than your happiness. You and I both know that's not true. Your happiness means more to you. Gain leverage on yourself, and agree that you are not willing to go any further wasting your time with organizations or people who are not contributors to your well being and happiness. You are in charge of your happiness, and if you do not make decisions to make it so other people and things will trample all over your happiness because it's not their responsibility. ITS YOURS.
