Yin and Yang

Over the years, life's little let-downs can start adding up and turn whatever faith you have into a cynical anticipation of expected failures. Despite attempts to accomplish dreams in life, past unfortunate events create a learned behavior which leeches away all hope and motivation to succeed in the future. A truly damning state of mind, and one which has been adopted by so many.

Yet, some success stories have illustrated that it is only in these states of mind that we discover our greatest potential and power: the ability to choose our own destiny.

When exactly does the change happen? When will the negativity recess and the positivity grow?

The irony in this is, that the mere expression of my own self-doubt is an indicator of a desire to abolish that mentality and turn it into self-confidence. The question I keep asking myself is: will I be able to do it.

    Yes. Call on higher powers to help. Explain every detail, every thought to that higher power. Make plans, brainstorm, write goals & rolls. Expect good, make plans for it, visualize yourself in the position in life you desire and make yourself feel comfortable in that roll in life Listen to Steven Covey's "First Things First" It is sooo helpful, so amazing, enlightening, clear & succinct---things go forward after digesting this cassette or cd.
