You can make a decision.........


     People often complain about their jobs. I often ask them, "Why did you go to work today?" Their answer usually is, "Because I had to". 
You and I need to remember one thing: there is virtually nothing that we have to do in this world. You certainly don't have to go to work. And you certainly don't have to work at a particular location on a particular day. You don't have to do what you've done  for the last ten years. 
You can decide to do something else, something new today. Right now you can make a decision.  To go back to school, to master dancing or singing, to take control of your finances, to learn to fly a helicopter, to turn your body into an inspiration, to begin meditating, to enroll in ballroom dancing, to learn to speak  in French, to read more to your children, to spend more time in your garden, even to fly to Fiji and live on an island. 
If you really decide to, you can do almost anything. So if you don't like the current relationship you're in, make the decision now to change it.
 If you don't like your current job, change it.
If you don't like the way you feel about yourself, change it. If it's a higher level of physical vitality and health you want, you can change it now. 
You must know that you can make a new decision right now that will immediately change your life - a decision about a habit you will change or a skill you will master, or how you will treat people, or a call that you'll make to someone you haven't  spoken to in years. 
Maybe you could make a decision right now to enjoy and cultivate the most positive emotions that you deserve to experience, daily.

WHY DOESN'T EVERYONE SET GOALS?

You might be thinking right now, "Well, this all sounds so inspiraional, but surely just setting a goal doesn't make it happen." I couldn't agree with you more. All goal setting must be immediately followed by both the development of a plan, and massive and consistent action toward its fulfillment. You  already have this power to act. If you haven't been able to summon it, it's merely because you have failed to set goals that inspire you.  What's holding you back? Surely you've been exposed to the power of goal setting before. But do you have a list of clearly defined goals for the results you will absolutely produce in your life mentally, emotionally,physically, spiritually, and financially? What has stopped you? For many it's the unconscious fear of disappointment. Some people have set goals in the past and failed to achieve them and, as a result of their disappointment and their fear of future pain, they stop setting goals. They don't ...

Questions Are The Answer.............

They needed no reason. They came simply because he was of  Jewish descent. The Nazis stormed into his home, arresting him and his entire family. Soon they were herded like cattle, packed into a train, and then sent to a death camp n Krakow. His most disturbing nightmares could never have prepared him for seeing his family shot before his very eyes. How could he live through the horror of seeing his child's clothing on another because his son was now dead as the result of a "shower"? Somehow he continued. One day he looked at the nightmare around him and confronted an inescapable truth: if he stayed there even one more day, he would surely die. He made a decision that he must escape and that escape must happen immediately! He knew not how, he simply knew he must. For weeks he'd asked the other prisoners, "How can we escape this horrible place?" The answers he received seemed always to be the same. "Don't be a fool," they said, "the...

"This, too, shall pass,"

Dr. Martin Seligman of the University of Pennsylvania did an intensive research on what creates learned helplessness. In his book Learned Optimism he reports on three specific patterns of beliefs that cause us to feel helpless and can destroy virtually every aspect of our lives. He calls these three categories permanence, pervasiveness, and personal. Many of our country's greatest achievers have succeeded in spite of running into huge problems and barriers. The difference between them and those who give up revolves around their beliefs about the permanence, or lack thereof, of their problems.  Achievers rarely, if ever, see a  problem as permanent, while those who fail, see even the smallest problems as permanent. Once you adopt the belief that there's nothing you can do to change something, simply because nothing you've  done up until now has changed it, you start to take a pernicious poison into your system. No matter what happens in your life, you've got ...
