Thought for the day: Day 20
“I do not fear failure. In my life, failure is a myth. Failure exists only for the person who quits. I do not quit.”
If you are not familiar with Andy Andrews I strongly encourage you to check him out. He has written some wonderful books. The quote above was taken from The Traveler’s Gift. I read that book once a year.
Thought for the day: Day 19
“Use your fear as fuel.”
Thought for the day: Day 17
“I don’t fear failing. I fear succeeding at things that don’t matter.”
This gets right to the heart of it for me. When it’s all said and done and you’re looking back on your life, what did you dedicate your time to? Our career is a huge part of our life. But an even bigger part are those we love. Did you share your time, talents, gifts, words and love with those you love as much as possible? Building up and encouraging people is far more satisfying than any other pursuit I have found.
Thought for the day: Day 16
“Do the thing you fear and the death of fear is certain.”
Thought for the day: Day 15
“Beaten paths are for beaten people.”
This one really speaks to me. Every day in so many ways we have a world telling us to do things a certain way…that THIS must be the way to do a thing. It’s incredibly difficult to find your own way with all the cultural and societal forces working against us. Stepping out on your own is a big risk. People everywhere will tell you that you are making a mistake or not to do it. If you aren’t meant to follow the crowd, don’t follow the crowd. Listen to your heart instead. Create your own path.
Thought for the day: Day 14
“There are two ways of meeting difficulties; alter the difficulties or alter the way you meet them.”
Another quote taken from the book Destination Success by Dwight Bain.
Thought for the day: Day 13
“Tough times never last. Tough people do!”
Life is nothing but cycles. Good flows in, good flows out. Difficulty flows in, difficulty flows out. Regardless of what is going on in your life right now I promise, it will change. Given enough time, it will change. I wrote about this topic previously. You can read that post here: http://wp.me/p3nLpj-e4
Thought for the day: Day 12
“Let your determination override your distractions.”
We all get knocked off course or even knocked down. The key is to get back up, refocus, and keep moving toward your goals. The good news is you know what your goals are and what direction you are heading.
Thought for the day: Day 11
“What makes you come alive with passion and enthusiasm?”
Answer that question and you might just find a new career.
