Morning!
I'm thrilled to announce I'm on my latest David Gemmell book Midnight Falcon, and just read the following.
"One day you will realize you are WHAT you are because you CHOOSE to be that way."
Glorious…and oh! So true indeed.
Lately over at the forums I frequent and on Skype, I've been exposed to more opportunities for fine whines than at a 2012 Toddler Tantrum convention.
Heck, my sons have show a bare glimmer of this tendency too (which I squashed down heavily, I might add).
You see, it's really easy to say,
"I have no choice for how I am, because I react to what's around me!"
- Moose byproducts, I respond!
We all must take ownership for the choices we've made in the past…and use that precious knowledge to *proactively change the future*.
Proactively.
That's…the *key*.
It's gotten to the point that I refuse now to take on and coach customers who hold fast to their delusions that they're not responsible for their current situations.
They chose the actions that caused them to be where they are (for example, my boys chose to forget today was Halloween, and finish their costumes, leading them to a merry scramble this morning).
Now, if they showcase they're willing to do what's required to *change* their future, that's definitely a positive!
But such desires…have to come from within *them*.
Thus today, tell yourself that you're *not* going to give yourself excuses if things aren't optimal.
You're going to set out and proactively kick fate in the right direction…instead.
You'd be surprised how truly effective that is.
Grow strong,
Barbara Ling
