Good
morning!
When Rosemary sent in this quote, she also included
the following Ziglar excerpt.
To utilize the ability you have you must start by
getting rid of any loser's limp you might have. A typical Loser's
Limp is, "I'm not a born salesman, or a born doctor, lawyer, artist,
architect, engineer, etc. (Brook's side note... or cook, or
housekeeper, or _____.)
I would like to emphasize this point. In my travels, I have
picked up newspapers from the rural villages of Australia to the
bulging metropolises of North America and Europe. I've read where many
women have given birth to boys and girls, but thus far I have never
read where a woman has given birth to a salesman, or a doctor, lawyer,
artist, engineer, etc. However I do read where doctors, lawyers,
salesmen, etc., die. Since they are not "born" but they do "die"
obviously, somewhere between birth and death, by choice and by training
they become what they wish to become. Zig

It is so easy to forget that we have the power to choose and the power
to be part of the design of our life. First we must decide and dream
about what we wish to become, then we must begin our journey, and
follow it step-by-step regardless of the obstacles or blocks along the
way.
Your Turn:
Where have you been giving up power and choice in
your life? What do you want to become? Take a moment today to reflect
and decide on what you want to become. Realize you can live the
dream... the only person that can ever stop you... is you.
Your affirmation:
I exercise my power and choice to live my dreams.
