Become what you believe

“To many of us are not living our dreams because we are living our fears”
                                     ~Eleanor Roosevelt

Did you know that you only fail when you stop trying? Every accomplishment starts with YOUR decision to try.Failure will never overtake you, if your determination to succeed is strong enough. Just because the past didn’t turn out like you wanted it to, doesn’t mean your future can’t be better then you ever imagined.This is life my friends, if plan A didn’t work… the alphabet has 25 more letters. Start each day on a positive note, even if your not feeling it or it hurts. Like when it rains look for rainbows or when it’s dark look for stars.Think about it, stars can’t shine without darkness, right? You don’t even know how powerful your mind actually is. When you fill it with positive thoughts your life will start to change. We absolutely believe what we tell ourselves. So if you are negative about your life, thats exactly how it will be. Do you ever walk around saying  “my life sucks” “I hate my job” “Im fat”, if you find yourself falling into these negative thoughts, notice next time you even say one of these out loud, you will feel even worse by saying it. Positive affirmations..  Sound silly?  Cliché?  Try it. Say something positive, out loud. “The best is yet to come” “I am important” “I am strong” “I can do this” “I will do this”. See,  you just had some practice just from reading this.  Make it a ritual.Why not create the highest grandest vision possible for your life,  because you do become what you believe. Another reason we fail is fear. Fear seems to paralyze us. We can talk ourselves right into fear with that negative self talk. Self esteem and self love are the opposites of fear. The more you like yourself the less you fear anything.

And here’s something very important to remember in your quest to succeed and be happy in your life. Eject the naysayers from your surroundings.  You know the ones that want to tell you what to do with your life. The self righteous, negative (yup,  there’s that word again). People to weak to follow their own dreams will always find a way to discourage yours. Funny , they seem to know what’s best for your life but still have yet to figure out their own.Trust yourself. Mistakes are going to be made. That is part of your life’s journey.  But they are your mistakes to make and nobody else’s. And do not let those mistakes deter you from moving forward. Remember, you will always pass failure on the way to success.
