SELF IMPROVEMENT AND MOTIVATION

Tell yourself something often enough, and it becomes truth for you. What are you telling yourself over and over again? If you tell yourself again and again that you can’t do something, you’re never going to do it. Even when you are perfectly able, you can convince yourself you’re absolutely not. As you look at your world and make your way through it, whatever you’re repeating to yourself will have significant consequences. That can be a big burden, or a grand opportunity. There’s no benefit in deluding yourself to believe you have superhuman powers. Yet there’s great benefit in constantly reminding yourself of the real and accessible powers you do have. You can think, you can act, and you can focus your actions toward a specific purpose. You can feel, understand, create, adapt to new situations, build, improve, love and enjoy.

There’s some little something you can do, some little change you can make today, that will make your life better. Go ahead, give yourself a positive gift, and do it.  There’s something you know you’ve been doing, or neglecting to do, that’s been holding you back. This is your opportunity to change it.  You don’t have to change the whole world to make a noticeable difference in your life. Even a small change in what you do can make a big improvement in the way you feel. As comfortable as your old habit may be, it’s not taking you where you want to go.

Improve the quality of those choices, and you will improve the quality of your situation. Get the moments of this day working in your favor by making more of your actions work in your favor.

Think, but don’t overthink. Consider the implications before you act, but don’t agonize and analyze so deeply that you fail to make anything happen. Think, then do what you think about. You cannot solve every problem in advance, so accept that you’ll have to make some adjustments as you go along. Figure out what you intend to do, but don’t hold yourself back while you figure it all out. Jump in and get started, and use your powerful mind in combination with your effective actions. Stop fretting and worrying about what might or might not happen. Get busy and find out. Commit to a course of well-considered action and then do everything in your power to honor your commitment. That’s the path to achievement. Imagine, and then create real, live substance out of what you imagine. Think, act, live, and enjoy the richness of a positive, purposeful existence.
