“There is nothing on earth that you cannot have – once you have mentally accepted the fact that you can have it.” – Robert Collier, author of “The Secret of the Ages”
“You are a thoroughly good person. You deserve a wonderful life full of success, happiness, joy, and excitement. You are entitled to have happy relationships, excellent health, meaningful work, and financial independence. These are your birthright. This is what your life is meant to include.
You are engineered for success and designed to have high levels of self-esteem, self-respect, and personal pride. You are extraordinary; there has never been anyone exactly like you in all the history of mankind. You have absolutely amazing untapped talents that, when properly unleashed and applied, can bring you everything you could ever want in life.
You are living at the greatest time in all of human history. You are surrounded by abundant opportunities that you can take advantage of to realize your dreams. The only real limits on what you can be, do, or have are the limits you place on yourself by your own thinking. Your thoughts and the actions that they trigger, determine your whole life. And the best news of all is that they are completely under your own control. Your future is virtually unlimited!”
– Brian Tracy from “Change Your Thinking Change Your Life”
…Well, I guess I have nothing more to add… When you go to bed tonight, just imagine some great things to be, to do or to have, and keep that image around, and forever. You will be surprised to meet your own dreams some day, unexpectedly. J With lots of love, Mom.
I e-mailed this note to my daughters when they left home at tender ages of 18 and 17 as a von-voyage gift. It still applies to me and to everyone. Having a faith in ourselves and keeping a positive outlook should have the first place in my Blog entry.
