Improve your life

An additional thought for the day...

Are you pleased with where your life is today? Are you happy with the current results of your efforts?

Chances are you are not as happy as you want to be. And there's nothing wrong with that.

But when you look back over your life and wonder how you got to where you are. You need to understand one thing: you are where you are today, because of the decisions and actions you have taken so far.

Let me say that again: Everything you are today - is a result of your actions and decisions.

I hear the howls of protest, even as I type. "But but but...." There are no "buts". I know there are things that have happened to everyone that seem as though they were the result of completely external influences. And that may be the case. But if something did happen to you, how did you let it affect you? What did you DECIDE to do as a result? This is what I'm talking about.

So lets go back to my original notion: you are the sum total of your actions and decisions to date. While we're at it - lets re-ask the original question: are you happy with where you are in life today?

I once heard a wise man say, if you keep doing what you're doing today, and if you keep making the same decisions, you can expect to get the same results. If you want change, you need to change at a fundamental level. His direct quote was: "If you want to change the fruits, you need to change the roots."

So now ask yourself, what actions are you willing to change, to gain the results you want?

Here's to your success!
