It’s Up To You….

If you stop learning and growing, everything you will be you already are. So if you are happy with where you are,then keep doing what you are doing, This ain’t for everybody.  You are where you are because of who you are, so if you want to be someone different you got to do something different.  If you want more you have to do more and it all starts with a thought.  We become what we think about, so what’s on your mind? If you want to be the best business man, computer programmer, landowner, psychologist, lawyer or doctor guess what…It’s out there. If you want to be the best mother you can be, the best father you can be; it’s all up to you.  You’ve got to tell yourself.. If it’s got to be, it’s up to me.  All of these things are out there waiting on you. All you have to do is decide… It’s on you.  It’s all about choices.  And I say its out there, but what I really should say is it’s in there.  The person you ought to be is inside of you waiting on you to come out of that shell. Everything is waiting on you. If you are going to be anything, you have to take full responsibility for who you are and where you are. It’s time to make adjustments not excuses. You have to decide what you want and put every morsel of your soul into becoming the person you ought to be. And I say becoming because regardless of your aim or lack thereof, we all are BECOMING something. You are either becoming closer to something or moving further away from it.  Nothing stays the same. Most of the things we want are in one direction. This is why it is very important to assess where we are so we can know where we are going. It’s important that you take inventory on your life.  Good health, good parenting, good finances, deeper spiritual connections, all of these thing starts with an idea and the desire to want something more.

You are the sum total of all your decisions to date. The great thing about that is better decisions lead to better results. If you are where you don’t want to be, simply make a new decision and stand on it. One good decisions leads to another and another.  The problem is most of us want success overnight and it doesn’t work like that. You won’t achieve success overnight, but you can get on the path to success in a second.  You can’t go North and South at the same time. If success is up north and you look up and find yourself south, all you have to do is change directions.  Most people go through life living by default instead of design.  You can live the life you decide to live. Make a decision and don’t stop until you get it.  I study successful people and I find that they all have one thing in common. The never give up. They make a decision and they stick to it. I know that sounds cliché and simple and that’s because it is. NEVER GIVE UP. There is nothing more powerful than a made up mind. We can do anything we put our minds to… So be care… The problem is that we put our minds to things that don’t challenge us to grow and become the best we can be. The great Les Brown says “the problem is not that people Aim to High and Miss, it’s that we Aim to Low and HIT. “  Aim High and don’t stop until you hit your target.
