“I may not be able to change the world around me, but I can change what I see within me” paraphrased from John C. Maxwell. Often I struggle with what is happening around me and my inability to change the situation and or re-direct and imapct the results.
Like many people, I go along the road of life, working, overcoming challenges, celebrating victories, and once in awhile I get stuck on over thinking a situation which I have no control over. This leads me to temporary frustration. I say temporary, because of my hightened self awareness and self reliance, I am able to talk myself off the ledge. I know I always have a choice. To quote Jack Canfield, when you want a different result, do something different.
My taking the choices and making decisions always leads me back to my rules for living my life with passion and purpose:
- I believe that my attitudes and beliefs structure how my world appears to me
- I rely on my core values to drive and fuel my way forward
- I can take stock of what is working and what is NOT and make choices ( include things, situations and people)
- I trust myself and a high power
- I geunine care about people
- I am committed to excellence in all facets of my life
- Keep it simple
- Be generous with my energy and knowledge
- Laugh and share the Joy
I have walked my life with passion and purpose. I have spoken and my words have ignited passion and purpose in others. I model vision, determination and action in pursuing my goals. My enthusiam and positive energy have inspired others to believe in themselves, and allow them to grow into their full potential.
