Expectations

When you expect things, strangely enought - they do happen

J.P. Morgan


Be careful what you think, watch the thoughts you allow to enter into your head.

Failure

Like you, I'm still a work in progress. And the next step beyond failure could be your biggest success.

Debbie Allen, Singer, Dancer, & TV Producer


People are so afraid to fail that they never try ANYTHING. Baseball players strike out more than they hit a home run, yet no one expects them to quit. A baby falls over and over again before mastering the art of walking and it would be ludicrous to suggest they give up...so why do we?

There is no crime in failing only in giving up!

Passion!

Master Your Passions, Then You Have Found the Fountain of Life

People are always talking about "finding your passion". But once you find your passion what will you do with it? Master it! Nurture it! Explore It! Channel it into your way of being, make it a lifestyle, a way of making a living!

Forget searching for the Fountain of Youth, search for the Fountain of Life. If you find that you will never get old, only well seasoned!

Responsibility

Take the whole responsibility on your own shoulders
Know that you are the creator of your own destiny.
All the strength and success you want is within yourselves
Stand up. Be Bold. Be Strong.
Make Your Own Future!



Many times, we want to lay blame about why our life is the way it is. It is our upbringing's fault, our spouse's fault, the 'man's' fault, everything under the sun, but we find it hard to look at ourselves more closely.

We ARE the creators of our destiny. Are there going to be obstacles...hell yeah, is becoming successful in our chosen endeavours going to be easy...hell no. But does that mean that we should lay down and cry about it or does it mean we should keep moving forward. There are things from our past that affect our future, no doubt, and many times, they creep up in our unconscious and cause us to doubt ourselves, BUT we must learn to listen to the messages playing in our head and stop any negativity that starts to enter.

You can create the life you want for yourself, but you have to be willing to sacrifice and you have to take RESPONSIBILITY, no one else will for you!

Reach!!

The greatest danger for most of us
Is not that our aim is too high
And we miss it.
But that it is too low and we reach it.
Michelangelo



This reminds me of the saying Reach for the Stars and if You Only Get as Far as the Moon, you still way better off than if you sat still on the Earth.


Really rrrreeeaach!! Don't be afraid. Aim high! Sttttreeetchhhh! Stretch your mind, stretch your thoughts, stretch your dreams, stretch and reach out to positive people, stretch and reach out to mentors, stretch and reach out farther than the eye can see, farther than anyone ever imagined.


A pot of gold is at the end of the rainbow, but has anyone been able to find the end of the rainbow (mother nature's rainbow, not one you made with a prism in science class); no, but we keep searching and everyday get a little closer, and you are sure to find treasures along the way!
