The Morning Ascent
Think it into existence. The power of the mind is infinite.
When you wake up every morning, think of what a precious gift it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy what the world has to offer, the opportunity you have to create the life of your dreams.
Every day is a blank page for you write a new chapter in your book of life.
The past is the past. Let it go.
The future is not yet written. Don't dwell upon things that have not yet happened, and may never happen.
Today is all that you have. Focus and be in the moment. Seize the opportunity to grow and experience new things.
Growth, both personal and professional, only occurs when you push outside of your comfort zone. Dare to be bold. Remember, courage is not the absence of fear. Its the control and mastery of fear. Use your fears as fuel to drive your forward. Ignore what others say and think. Act as if it were impossible to fail and move in the direction of your dreams.
Each and every one of us was blessed with our own unique gift of life. Your life is yours and yours alone. There is not another soul on this planet that gets to tell you how should or shouldn't live. You get one shot on this earth. Don't waste it dwelling in darkness or in the grasp of those around you that want nothing more than to hold you back due to their own fears and insecurities.
Let go of negative people. They only show up to share complaints, problems, disastrous stories, fear and judgment on others. If somebody is looking for a bin to throw all their trash into, make sure its not your mind. If you accept the expectations of others, especially negative ones, you will never change the outcome.
Letting go doesn't mean that you don't care about someone anymore. It's just realizing that the only person you really have control over is yourself.
If you don't like the road you are walking, start paving a new one.
Make today your day to shine!
