Don’t Short Change Yourself

“The first and worst of all frauds to cheat one’s self.”

Phillip James Bailey 1816 – 1902, English Poet, Author

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

 

Don’t short change yourself

 

You are a unique person and you where born to succeed.

 

Don’t short change yourself with limited thinking be a possibility thinker and expand your thinking and your possibilities. Keep your head and thinking clear and don’t allow negative thinking to creep into your thoughts or to influence your activities. 

 

Focus on the positive and being productive.

 

Your future is in front of you. Indentify the path that you want to take and make the decisions to take the path that will move you in the direction of your goals and that will help you to achieve your objectives.

 

Create a plan that will focus your efforts on what’s most important in   moving you into the future with a strong sense of direction and you will move into the future with confidence.

 

Keep you thinking and activities focused on your goals. Make a commitment to a consistent effort and steady progress that will move you into future and a little closer to your goals every day. 

 

Don’t short change yourself believe that you were born to succeed and make every effort to turn your beliefs into a reality.

Lou:

I appreciate your inspiration posts.  Your eloquent words are important for us to think about when nothing seems to be going the way we want and we feel unable to change things.

Years ago, I was working with a management analyst at my office, who also took an interest in helping me become successful. He had me write one, five and ten-year plans. Totally foreign concept to me but I did. After he reviewed them, I put them away and totally forgot them until I ran into them about 20 years later. It almost freaked me out - I had achieved everything on those lists and more! And, most were way beyond what I could have envisioned. Planning does work - even if we aren't paying attention.

I definitely haven't short changed myself. I surf everyday there's waves, walk the sandy beaches and globetrot the vast and beautiful cities of the world with my lovely wife daily. Thanks for the refresher.

Lou, a grumpy person just left my office, I was left with the residue of his attitude. Next thing I know, I am reading your post, which put me back to the good mood I started my day with. It was a good reminder that we must stay focused on the target and not on others attitudes directed toward us. Have an excellent day! :)
