We move towards and become that which we think about. 
A dream doesn't become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work. Colin PowellWhen asked to describe his road to success, Secretary of State Powell answered, "I was born in Harlem, raised in the South Bronx, went to public school, got out of public college, went into the Army, and then I just stuck with it".

 We move towards and become that which we think about. When does your thought, idea or desire become an actionable event?
  "If you put off everything till you're sure of it, you'll never get anything done." Norman Vincent Peale
I know there are times when I come up with what seems like a good idea yet I don't act on it for months.  I'm sure that part of the reason for not moving forward with it is fear of not knowing how it will all come together.  I tend to want to gather as much information as I can before I "go … (6 comments)

We move toward and become that which we think about.

The clearer the goal, the more vivid the picture we have of what we want.  It is vitally important to make a plan to obtain the goal.  The next step is to put into action and consistently goal after it.  How many people do you know find it easy to say one of three little underachieving words;  coulda, woulda or shoulda?

We move towards and become that which we think about.  Each time I write this sentence, it helps cement my thoughts for the day.  It helps govern where I have my focus.
