We weren’t given this body to merely breathe air and exist.

We were meant to live and experience life and make a real positive difference to the world.

Breathing air is only the default!

If you often catch yourself saying, “I can’t do that…”, change the vocabulary to “won’t” instead.

Why would changing the word CAN’T to WON’T make any difference, you may ask?

Well, it’s a small step in you realizing that the control is yours and doesn’t belong to some external factor totally out of your control.

You are CHOOSING not to do something as opposed to you really being unable to do it.

This small change in words makes a difference in your mind, so you realize the reason you are not doing the “thing” is entirely up to you!

Once you have made this first step, the progression to “I CAN do that…” will be easier

So changing CAN’T to WON’T is just the first part of your journey, to “I CAN!”

 

Never put off till tomorrow what can be done today.

This is also true when speaking to family and loved ones. Tell them TODAY how you feel about them if you love them. Don’t wait.

Don’t wait and think, I have time, I’ll do tomorrow or another day. Why wait? Telling someone you love them is far more important than many other things going on in our lives today.

Because there will come a time when tomorrow DOESN’T come round for them at all.

And all you will be left with is a missed opportunity, saddled with sadness and regret.

So DON’T WAIT!

We may strive for success, but should not neglect our integrity whilst doing so.

Integrity is our foundation and then success follows on top. Otherwise, you are merely laying sand waiting for it to crumble.

Always try and be stronger than your excuses.

 

Your excuses, the majority of the time, are the easy way out.

The easy way to avoid the challenge.

The easy way to avoid responsibility.

The easy way to avoid doing the right thing.

 

But be stronger than your excuses, because you are only holding yourself back and only letting yourself down.

So take a deep breath and be brave and strong and move forward positively, by transferring your excuses to the garbage where they belong!

But you’ve got all the power and internal magic already to deal with anything life throws at you. This is what life does…send you challenges to see whether you’re worthy.

And each challenge is a life lesson, that you learn and grow from.

 

I appreciate, some days we all go through the "why me!" stage, wondering if we can indeed deal with all the "stuff" that comes our way and hope we can just keep our head above water. But understand, this crap is all part of life’s journey and sent your way for YOU to learn from.

 

So the end result of all these life lessons? A stronger version of you! So you are then equipped to pass these life lesson pieces of wisdom, onto others!

You can be anything you want to be…!

But above all else, please remember to also be kind!
