I want it and I'll have it
Want is the first step in achieving success. Creating a desire, a want, begins the wheels of success to turn. Sadly enough though "wanting" is not enough. In addition to wanting, you have to believe you can have it. I notice that many people say, "I want" and follow that with "but" and list all ...

Write A Letter
There are many ways to keep in touch, but there is one way that is more special than all the rest. That one special way is to write, yes with a pen, a letter. I know e-mail is quick and text messaging is super quick, but nothing says, "I am thinking of you" like a "real" letter that is sealed, ...

Give Change A Chance
I am famous for saying that change doesn't happen ove ight -- it happens over time. Any type of change you are creating is going to take time. You have to make the change a habit so that it is something that is simply an integral part of your life, and no longer something odd or different. Once ...

Stop the Negative Fantasy
Worry is one of those things that will pull you down and stop you in your tracks quicker than most anything else. Most things you worry about don't happen, but that doesn't seem to stop anyone from spending time and energy worrying. Worrying ruins the present by bringing in anticipation of ...

You Can't Change Your Life Today
I find it amusing how many people, programs, and books are out there today that promise to change your life in a second, a minute or as long as a day. Although intriguing as it may sound, changing your life isn't going to happen in a flash. Change takes time, and usually more time than you ever ...

If It Is Meant To Be, It Takes Responsibility
Lately, I have been melding two ideas together, one from my past and one from the present. When I worked in Corporate America, one of my managers had a sign on his door that read, “If it is meant to be, it is up to me.” I thought, at the time, it was a catchy phrase, but didn’t give it much more ...

Make Up Excuses Why You Can
We all have excuses as to why we can't do something. Ask anyone and they can give you a million excuses why it can't be done, why they haven't moved forward on their goals, and on and on. Making up excuses takes a lot of energy and time. So since, as humans, we seem to enjoy making up excuses, I ...

Misery Well Spent
No one likes to be miserable. Well, most people don't like it, anyway. Misery can make life unbearable. However, misery does serve a purpose. When you get through the misery and can take a step back from the situation, you will see that, through the misery, you have developed personal strength, ...

Make The Most Of What You Don't Do Well
One of my early mentors, Thomas Leonard, advised people not to try to improve a weakness. He said that, when you try to improve a weakness, the only thing you get is “a stronger weakness.” I believe that is true. It is more important to focus on your strengths and maximize what you do well than ...

You Only Have The Choices You Know About
I am a firm believe in the concept of choice. I believe we all have choices and that our choices shape our lives. Indeed, our choices create our lives. However, if you don't know that a choice is available, you are not able to select it. This can greatly limit your ability to make the right ...

The Everyday, Common Miracle
I love the saying that advises us to “expect miracles.” The problem isn’t that there are no miracles; the problem is that you don’t expect them or even recognize them when they happen. When you come to realize that miracles are constantly happening if you are paying attention, miracles will ...

If You Are Behind Perhaps You Should Slow Down
Rushing may seem to assist in getting more done, but I have found it often does the opposite. The faster you go the more behind you can get. If you are behind, slow down and assess the situation. Going faster might not be the answer, slowing down and figuring out a new strategy may be. Step ...
