Some people listen to themselves, rather than listen to what others say. These people don’t come along very often, but when they do - they remind us that once you set out on a path, even though critics may doubt you, it’s okay to believe that there is no can’t, won’t, or impossible. They remind us that it’s okay to believe “Impossible Is Nothing”.

I stared my vacation on Monday (07/27), two days into my 9 day vacation and I’ve already accomplished a lot.

I decided to write out a to-do-list for each of the first 4 days.  That’s right, I’m on vacation and I’m spending it at home.  I’m sure a lot of you would jump to the idea that a vacation would consist of doing nothing, but that alone would drive me insane.  Not having to be at work for ten to twelve hours each day, gives me the opportunity to take care of things in my personal life and get my shit together.  I’m on a mission to help as many people possible live their dreams and reach their goals.  All while documenting the entire process on this blog. Consider it a model for success.

Wouldn’t you like to be successful in each facet of your life? your career? your relationships? your dreams? the future?  Successful people have a vision, a desire, the courage, the perseverance, they believe and they take action (check out: “What Makes People Great”).

My life is not perfect.  It has it’s peaks and valleys.  I go through the same range of emotions everyone else does.  I just tend to live happier because of my positive outlook on things.  I wasn’t always as positive (believe me) and when I decided to apply positive thinking to my everyday life I felt better about myself.  Seeing how this has made a world of difference in my life has motivated me to help others.  Everyone deserves to be happy.  After all, we only live once.

“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” - John Maxwell

“Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity to seize everything you ever wanted-One moment, would you capture it or just let it slip?”

“..The moment you own it, you better never let it go, you only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow - This opportunity comes once in a lifetime..”

“You can do anything you set your mind to.”

You have the ability to be GREAT.

Life is what you make of it.

Greetings all,  I hope everyone is fine and dandy.  Before we can start climbing the mountain of positive thinking, let’s start with the first *pillar.  *I will go more in detail in a future post.

Don’t second guess yourself.  The only person who will always be the hardest on you is you.

That shouldn’t come to a surprise.  Somebody gives you a compliment and your quick to ask if it’s genuine.  You look at yourself in the mirror and all you see is that big pimple/blemish on your face (hoping that no one focuses on it, so you end up avoiding others).

So you gave it your best shot and it just wasn’t good enough (for you), so you gave up.  Sometimes you don’t even make it to failure because you never give it a shot to begin with.  That ends up being worse, because you live your life thinking “what if..”

So how do you stop second guessing yourself?  By understanding and realizing that the answer will always be “no”, unless you ask.  What does this mean?  It means that you have nothing to loose.  So the next time you have the jump shot, go for it!  You have a question in class, ask it!  You have a great idea, act on it!  Believe in yourself.. even when no else believes in you.
