Look Back for the Lessons

Look Back for the Lessons

“The first peak is the best place to pause and look back, to see

if you took the easiest route, to learn the lessons from the first

climb. And it is the best place to examine the terrain ahead, to

change your plans and goals, to take a deep breath

and begin climbing again.”

Michael Johnson, Retired American Sprinter, Won 4 Olympic

Gold Medals, Eight World championship Gold Medals  

As I see it . . . . . . .

Look back for the lessons

The lessons learned from the past once learned . . . . become a valuable resource on your success journey.

They will make your success journey going forward more efficient . . . . making far better use of your time and resources to achieve your objectives.

Look back for the lessons . . . . and use those lessons to move you forward better prepared to handle the vigor’s of your success journey and to keep you on purpose.

People Will Try to Sway You

Motivational Power Quote

People Will Try to Sway You

“When everybody tells you that you are being idealistic or

impractical, consider the possibility that everybody could

be wrong about what is right for you .”

Gilbert Kaplan, American Business, Former Journalist

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

People will try to sway you

It’s not that their opinion could not be valuable . . . . but unless they know your purpose and understand what your thinking  . . . . It becomes very difficult for them to render a valuable and useful opinion.

For those who know you well and understand what’s in your heart . . . . they will become a valuable resource on your success journey. When their opinion is coming from the right place, one of a mentor they can create value in your life by offering their opinion to you.

Most successful people in life find success in working out of the box . . . .

Many people won’t understand this or grasp the concept . . . . and will try to insert themselves between you and your goals. They will also try to get you back into the box and have a million reasons why that’s where you belong.

People will try to sway you . . . . The people sway you forward and encourage in the direction of your goals . . . . become a valuable resource to you on your success journey.

Define Your Own Life

Motivational Power Quote

Define Your Own Life

“Don’t let others define you. Don’t let the past confine you.

Take charge of your life with confidence and determination

and there are no limits on what you can do or be.”

Michael Josephson, Former Law Professional, Speaker and

Lecturer on Ethics

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

Define your own life

There will be many people that you meet on your success journey . . . .

 

There will be the mentors, the boosters, the coaches and the people that will support you and be there to help you to reach and successful achieve your goals.

Over time there encouragement becomes a valuable resource in assisting you on your success journey . . . . and helping you to define your own life. 

There also will be people that are distracters that come into your life and success journey. . . . They are the ones that enter your life and try to rain on your parade.

They are negative and will try to discourage you . . . . and corrupt your thinking. If you allow them to influence you and your thinking they become a barrier to you on your success journey and  . . . . limit your ability to flourish and to reach you full potential.

Go forward in the direction of your goals and objective with confidence in your ability and the determination to successfully achieve your goals. . . . . The positive people in your life are a powerful force and resource to assist you in successfully accomplishing your goals and objectives. 

Define your own life . . . . with the help and assistance of the positive people in your life.

Time Waits For No One

Motivational Power Quote

Time Waits For No One

“Know the true value of time; snatch, seize, and

enjoy every moment of it.

No idleness, no laziness, no procrastination; never put

off till tomorrow what you can do to-day .”

Lord Chesterfield 1694 -1773, British Statesman

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

Time waits for no one

When we were children time moved slowly.

It seemed like our birthday took forever to come around. It felt like Christmas would take an eternity to be here.

Next Saturday took forever to get here and summer vacation was a life time away.

Well weren’t children any longer and our birthdays seem to zip by like mile markers on a highway and we continually asking ourselves were did the time go?

Time waits for no one . . . . And our time is what we make of it.

Treat the moments in your life as a perishable resource one that only brings value to your life when you bring value into the moments of your life.  

The moments in your life become a direct reflection of the way you use those moments. What you do in those moments creates the value in your life.

Use your moments for productive purposes and your life becomes productive. Waste your time and you’ll be wasting your life.

Time waits for on one and as what we sod we will reap.
