Consider the importance of a 15-minute block of
time a day to do something meaningful for yourself. Those “extra” 15 minutes a
day would amount to 105 minutes, or 1 3/4 hours a week. If you continue
squeezing out those 15 minutes a day, they would equal more than 7 hours a month
and more than 91 hours a year. What could you accomplish with your “extra” 91
hours per year?
The first step in bringing about positive change is
to admit that you want to change. Be specific about what you want to change.
Will power is a tremendous tool. Once a person becomes determined to do
something, and blocks out all external negative thoughts, that person usually
succeeds in his or her desired goal.
We have it in our power to convince anyone to do
what we want them to do as long as we believe without a doubt that it is in his
or her best interest to do it.
If a man does not keep pace with his companions,
perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music
which he hears, however measured or far away. --Henry David Thoreau
Your common sense will tell you all the reasons you
cannot do something and all those reasons are likely true. But then you have to
stop to realize your brain has something greater than common sense. We are each
born with creative imagination.
Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. --Calvin Coolidge 30th President of the United States (1923-1929)
John Quincy Adams said, “If your actions inspire
others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a
leader
You can achieve greatness. You must be willing to
pay the price to attain such success. What do you want? What is the burning
desire deep inside you? When you get very serious about achieving a goal, write
it down, and plan how to attain it. The burning desire starts to become more
real, and an all-important drive to accomplish that goal takes over. Be careful
not to turn all your wants and small
C-John Paul Carinci
