Motivational Power Quote

 

Releasing Your Brake Will Set You Free

 

"Low self - esteem is like

driving through life

with your hand - break on."

Maxwell Maltz, author of Psycho - Cybernetics

  

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

Releasing your brake will set you free.

Self - esteem is a driving force in our life and is the foundation of; winning and losing, success and failure, and the level of performance and achievement.   

Our thoughts are guided by the inter voice of our self - esteem.  

Low self - esteem is our negative inter critic telling us that we can't do it and unless treated becomes I won't try because I can't.

Releasing our brake begins with believing in ourselves and our abilities. It's forming the habit of yes I can.

Focus on your successes. 

Learn from your mistakes but don't dwell on them.  

Listen to motivational audios, and read books that will inspirer you. 

Take responsibility for where you are today and set a clear path for where your want to go and how your going to get there. 

Releasing your brake will set your free to be the person that you were meant to be.

It is so important for people to take their hand/foot off the break.. but it is scary.  One needs a safety net to move forward... or extremely good self-esteem.

Hi Lou:

I like this quote & analogy.

Having the "breaks" on, definitely makes you drag through life.

Another great post Lou.  Self-esteem/fear is what holds so many people back.  No one is immune, but we all must learn to "release the brake".

Wow, it sure is hard to build any momentum when you've got your foot on the brake all the time. :)
