Success Thought of The Day

When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be. — Lao Tzu

Success Thought of the Day – 7/11/19: To Become

  • by

Educational paths serve to prepare you, titles can serve a purpose for a season, but neither can define you.  Keep your long-term journey in front of you, treating “evolution” as if it were your middle name, growing daily.
Your journey towards your passion and purpose are worth it, take inventory.

May my external possessions not be at war with what is within. - Socrates

Last year reading “goodby things” prompted me to take inventory and to ask “additive, neutral or distracting to my journey?”
If distracting, they must go. If neutral, evaluate relative to replacing with something more additive.
Your journey towards your passion and purpose are worth it, take inventory.

If you have knowledge, let others light their candles at it. - Margaret Fuller

Serving others through mentorship doesn’t require a title nor extensive experience.  There is always someone less experienced than you, wishing they were in your shoes, just as you did years before.

Don’t overthink it. Give back joyfully as opportunities arise.

Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it. - Maya Angelou

What an internal trifecta!  The question is, can you answer all three in the affirmative?

If not, give thought to what you need to change to make it so.  Once you know the “what,” you can create the “how.”

Most failures could have been converted into successes if someone had held on another minute or made more effort. - Napolean Hill

If it is worth pursuing, it is worth hanging on for your success.  Barriers and challenges are inevitable, tighten your grip and keep after it.

Who are you willing to cure?
It’s mid-year, a time when we typically reflect on the goals we set for the year, consider what adjustments we need to make in order to reach them or we quietly give up on them.

Help cure someone’s struggle to find their way or disbelief in reaching that goal with the gift of feedback.

You can't choose the ways in which you'll be tested - Robert J. Sawyer

Of course, we would love for life to be life school with a detailed syllabus so we know what we are going to learn, what we will be tested on and when. In reality, it doesn’t work that way.  Embrace each test, trail, barrier, and challenge as a part of your journey, making you stronger and building your resilience for the rest of the way. 

What counts is not necessarily the size of the dog in the fight - it's the size of the fight in the dog. - Dwight D. Eisenhower

Scientists have said that on average an adult makes up to 35,000 remotely conscious choices each day.  Over 200 of them are about food alone.  At the moment, a singular choice can feel insignificant but a series of related choices often form a habit and a cumulative result.

Consciously make a choice about how you will begin each day.  Randomly based on how you feel when you wake up OR with a focused list aimed at your passion, goals and a few priorities to guide you through the day.
