Good afternoon and hello there again from Tim in Cottage Grove, MN. Hope you are doing well this Monday and had a fantastic weekend. Wanted to share Tim's Time Outs with you again.
FOCUS ON THE OUTCOME:
Base your actions not on what just happened, but on what you would like to now make happen. You can't change what already is...BUT you most certainly have influence over what will be.
Choose your actions and responses based on the outcomes you desire...NOT on the history you've experienced. Sure, it's great to let the past inform you, but not good at all to let it control you. Instead of trying to win an argument or prove a point, or assign blame, put your energy into creating new vaue. Instead of being drawn into a useless negative reaction, choose a useful, helpful and postive outcome.
You don't have to react to rudeness with more rudeness and you don't have to react to injustice with more injustice. Decide to put any end to the negativity by focusing on a highy desirealbe outcome. You may not have been the person in the wrong, yet you can be the person to make it right. So make the most of that extraordinary opportunity.
Look ahead, and choose the very best outcome for everyone involed. Then positively,poliety, and enthusiastically put your efforts into making that outcome happen.
May your day and week be filled with enthusiasm, positiveness, and much success!
All the best,
Tim
