A Gift for a Great Life

 

A Gift for a Great Life
by Jane Powell

“The life you live is the life you choose.”

You alone have the responsibility to shape your life. Your happiness, success and fulfillment are in your very own hands. You have the right to do whatever you want with it. What an incredible gift you hold. Once you take ownership of it, you realize that nobody can deny you this, except you.

Everyone ultimately has one boss and that boss is you. What you tell yourself to do and the choices you make shape your life and destiny. No matter what the situation, you always have a choice; this is the beauty of being in charge of you.

You hold the power to make your life great. Don’t waste another day. Use it!

 

We all make mistakes.  It's a fact of life.  What
matters is what you do afterwards.

You have a choice.  You can let your mistake
torment you, embarrass you and hold you
back.  Or, you can admit you made a mistake,
learn from it and move on.

Mistakes are lessons in disguise.  You can
learn something from each and every one.
Next time you make a mistake, act quickly
and decisively.  Take responsibility and
look for the lesson.  Use the lesson to reach
greater success and good fortune in your
life.

Learn from your mistakes.  Only then can
they empower you to greater heights.

 

Determined enough
You deserve the very best achievement of which you’re capable. The challenges and setbacks and disappointments are there to make you determined enough to get it.

When it absolutely seems like there’s no way forward, keep going. There’s a way.

If you’re not getting the results you expected, see it as an opportunity to experiment with other approaches. You’ll likely find something that works even better than you could have imagined.

Eventually you’ll look back on all the challenges and be thankful for them. You’ll realize that the strength and effectiveness gained in working through those challenges added great value to the whole undertaking.

You won’t avoid all the setbacks, but then you really wouldn’t want to. For you can choose to take them all in stride and let them make you that much stronger, that much more determined, and that much more successful.

Instead of feeling sorry for yourself, feel inspired about yourself. After all, you had the courage to get started in the first place and you have the determination to keep going no matter what.

Ralph Marston
