Take Action Went It’s Required

Motivational Power Quote


Take Action Went It’s Required
“Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence.
Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear.
Perhaps the action you take will be successful;
perhaps different action adjustments will have to follow.
But any action is better than no action at all.”
Norman Vincent Peale, author



As I see it . . . . . . .


Take action when it’s required


When action is required, figure out what has to be done, the best way to do it and just do it. Take action


In taking action there are risks but the benefits of taking action far outweighs the risks of indecisiveness and our inaction.


There are times that our actions will not turn out as we planned. In most cases we will hit the target. In some cases will have missed the mark even with giving it our best efforts.


We life in an imperfect world and things will not always turn out the way we planned. In those times we will have to make adjustments or in other cases some thing will have to be done over to product the desired results. Not every action that you take will turn out the way that you have planned but we have the capacity to make mid course correction and to keep trying.


But in reality most of our actions will bring the desired results.


Don’t allow the fear of making an occasional mistake to become a roadblock in your decision making and in taking action.


Have confidence in yourself, in your actions and risk an occasional mistake to achieve your goals. Life is not perfect and no one is right 100% of the time.


Take action when it’s required and take it with confidence.

Never React Emotionally to Criticism

Motivational Power Quote

Never React Emotionally to Criticism
“Never react emotionally to criticism.
analyze yourself to determine
whether it is justified.
If it is, correct yourself, other wise,
go on about your business.”
Norman Vincent Peale, author


As I see it. . . . . . . .


Never react emotionally to criticism


If you are on the receiving end of criticism don’t over react.


Look at the source of the criticism and determine if the criticism has merit. If the criticism is negative but valid, thank the person for sharing the information with you and make ever effort to correct the situation.


If you are at fault stay in control of the situation by admitting that you where at fault and take responsible for your actions. By admitting your responsible you will defuse the other person and the situation will not be accelerated.


If in analyze of the criticism you find that it’s not valid we have several choices.


Once you determine that the criticism is not valid, dismiss it and move forward.


If the criticism is coming from a person that has continued to criticism you without merit or being truthful you may want to professionally approach that person have ask them for their help. Ask them to share with you for the source of their criticism and clear up any areas of misunderstanding.


Thank the person for their input and ask them to speak to you personally before they share information (criticism) with other people to ensure that they have their facts right.


Remain calm and in control to find the best way to resolve the situation but never react emotionally to criticism because in many cases the exactly what they are looking for.


Never react emotionally to criticism and you will remind in control of your emotions and as a result you will make far better decisions.

Learn From Your Success

Motivational Power Quote


Learn From Your Successes


“We’ve all heard that we have to
learn from our mistakes,
but I think it’s more important
to learn from successes.
If you learn only from mistakes,
your inclined to learn only errors.”
Norman Vincent Peale


As I see it. . . . . . . .
Learn From Your Success

When we learn from what has succeeded in the past, we are learning from what has worked. When we are learning from successful experiences we are building a solid foundation for success.

Learning from success is building on those past successes that are compounded in the future,

As we learn from our success we are thinking in the positive.
