How time fliesHow many times have you heard it said: My, how time flies!

Yes we are already almost halfway through the first month of 2011.

What does this mean to you?

Here is what it means to me — Life is too short to spend it:

Waiting on opportunities.
I have decided to learn to stay more focused and alert to create what comes my way into the opportunities that will lead me to fulfill my goals and dreams.

Going around in circles, because I did not learn the lesson the first time.
I have decided to learn the first time! This means being more alert and sensitive to people, things and my surroundings.

Enough is enough! The success overflow has begun in my life NOW (Quote from John Di Lemme’s 210 Affirmation Challenge.)

Wasting time with the petty things of life.
I think we have all found ourselves tripping up with petty arguments, circumstances we worried about needlessly etc. It is time to put those things aside and focus on the IMPORTANT things in life.

Here is a great decision to make:
I respect my time and I refuse to waste it – Quote from John Di Lemme’s 210 Affirmation Challenge.

The first 14 days of this year, I have spent reading more (my first book this year was Jesus, Life Coach: Learn from the Best – wonderful book!), meditating more (on the Bible, God and the seed of destiny He has placed in my heart, which is also known as my WHY), and making firm plans and decisions for the days ahead.

I am determined to make the very most of every second of this year, 2011. And no, you don’t have to wait until Dec 31st of any given year to make plans, decisions and resolutions. You can resolve (decide) to change anything in your life NOW, no matter what the date is!

EVERY day is a new day, waiting for your decisions,
your words and your actions.

JillWhat you do with TODAY will decide what you will do with this year.

20 Dec 2010 People Are Awesome
Author:  |  Topic: Decisions  | Tags: , , , , ,  | Leave a Comment

I recently received an email from Stuart Stirling with links to 2 incredible videos. One of these videos is entitled: “People Are Awesome”.

This video shows some incredible feats by many different and daring folk. Some of these feats appear totally impossible to achieve because gravity itself is challenged. Yet, man has even defied gravity (using speed) and performed these incredible achievements.

As I was watching this video I was thinking:
Human beings are capable of doing incredible things. This is true of YOU. You were created with the potential to achieve whatever is in your heart to do, and you CAN do it!

IF

Yes, there is an “IF”. You have the potential within, but you also have the responsibility to DEVELOP and USE this potential.

What would it have taken to achieve these feats?

Desire – a deep desire!
Here is a question for you: How much do you REALLY want to achieve your dreams. Your dreams are in your heart. They are things you would like to do, but “like” is not enough.

You need to REALLY want to achieve those dreams and goals you talk about. Strong desire turns to passion. Passion for your dreams and your why will drive you to achieve them.

Determination
I am sure that every one of these achievements took a lot of determination to conquer. Certainly not one of them was achieved at the first attempt right?

  • What is in YOUR heart to achieve?
  • How many times have you tried?
  • Are you determined to achieve it? (This means never, never giving up).

Dedication
It takes dedication and discipline to do the training and practice that it takes to be able to achieve the extraordinary.

This is why it takes extraordinary people to achieve extraordinary results.

Today’s question for you is:
Are you an extraordinary person? (And the answer is a DECISION that YOU make.)

Note:
You were not born any more or less extraordinary than anyone else.
The extraordinary comes from these three steps to great achievements:

Desire — Determination — Dedication
