Good morningWhen Nancy sent in this quote, she included
the note: "I like this quote because it shows that nothing has really
changed in thousands of years-- even Socrates saw our
human tendency to think about what others can do better... rather than do it ourselves." Nancy and Socrates have both touched on one of the biggest challenges we face in moving forward toward our heart's desires - the human tendency to wait for someone else to make the changes we desire. While we might talk a good game, do our actions match our voice? Studies have shown that the most successful
business owners have worked in each area of their business. In other
words, they haven't asked anyone to do something they are not willing
(or have not done) themselves. We can learn a lot from their success
and apply that same principle of success in our own lives. Before we
ask others to do something for us, before we go out and change the
world, let us first ask the best from ourselves and transform ourselves
into the best person we can be.
Your Turn:
Pay attention to how much energy you spend thinking about solutions for others or the way things "could" or "should be." Realize that this time takes away from the time you have to create positive results in your own life. Redirect your energy inward versus outward. Your Affirmation: Each day I am improving my life. And as always, don't forget to start your day with a heartfelt: "Something great is going to happen today... I can't wait to see what it is!" And when ending your day ask yourself: "What is one more thing I can do to make today matter? | |||||||
