There Will Be A Time In Your Life When You Give Yourself a Choice

Good morning to all around the globe who motivate me each and every day by writing me back on concerns and issues that you as the individual are going through or know someone who is trying to get through a difficult time. I know sometimes we as individuals have no outlet to talk and we sometimes find it on the Internet. Life is said to be a tapestry that has been created in the mind. I believe that you as an individual and human being can change the environment around you any time you choose to do so.

BUSINESS WORLD

ACTION
When you decide to find the plan for your dreams in either business or inside yourself it all begins with a state of mind, with definiteness of purpose. 

I find business owners struggle all the time and you might think that I am talking about customers or services or products or lack of. As a business owner I am talking about the struggles that owners go through from within. There are many business owners that I have coached and what I find their biggest struggle to be is making choices. 

The choice to hire the right person.

The choice on what to pay them?

The choice of training they will be given?

The choice of products or services the company should have?

The list goes on and on.

There comes a time in life when we give ourselves a choice. Do we continue doing something just because we’re used to it, or do we break away into the unknown and try to start all over, in the hopes that it would actually give us genuine pleasure? Hanny Lerner Contributor

I also believe there will be many choices we give ourselves not just one time but many times in our lifetime. The key to all the choices we will give ourselves will be whether we learn anything from the bad choices we make.

Your progress in life begins in your own mind and ends in the same place.
Every great accomplishment began with the germ of an idea in the mind of a great person, then was shaped for practical usefulness and finally transformed into reality. Make your mind a fertile ground for ideas through constant study and learning, and condition through constant practice to discipline yourself to follow through on your good ideas. The most brilliant concept in the world is only a dream unless you take action. Even a mediocre idea that is put into practice is far more valuable than a flash of genius that languishes in a fallow, undisciplined mind.

 The individual who has time only for gossip and slander is too busy for success.
Each of us has a finite amount of time, energy, and money; you must choose for yourself how you will spend them. If you elect to squander your resources by demeaning others in an attempt to advance your own interests, you will soon find that so much of your time and energy has been spent on gossip and slander that you have little time left for yourself. If you deal in malicious information, you’ll rarely be trusted. As the saying goes, “Those who talk about others to us will talk about us to others.”

You see my friends when you read the message above you will have a better understanding of the mind and how we think and sometimes believe. You as the person that is wanting to make that dream a reality must take some kind of action towards it. An individual has the potential to create their own future if you but look farther in the back of your mind and you will find what you need to make any dream come true.

I was once asked what my dreams were and if I had any. This question was posed to me about twenty years ago and at that time I had no clear answer. I remember when asked I started to just rambled about dreams that I wanted to accomplish. I was then asked what action had I taken or If I had a plan written down. I believe all of my answers were very vague or a big NO!!.

I have made many speeches on this subject and each time I do I ask the very same question to clients; What are your dreams? What do you think the answers are? They are very similar to what mine were twenty years ago. You as a human being must understand that you have the potential inside to change your life and take it in any direction that you choose to do so.

One of the most difficult speeches for me is to the incarcerated youth. They tell me of their friends who have been left behind by parents or friends who at one time trusted. They see a world that has forgotten them. They see and talk about why they did what they did to get them where they are today. I tell them that the treason they seem to be stuck is simply because they need to change their mind and how they perceive the world to be but rather see the world for what it really is.

The world is a nasty and chaotic place everyone trying to get somewhere in a hurry and sometimes running people over to get there. You see my friends that is the truth. Perhaps you do not believe me but all you have to do is turn on the news or listen to the news on the radio on your way to work or better yet listen to your co workers at your place of employment.

In spite of all of this you can change your mind of how you see the world. I would say understand the world for how it truly is and once you are able to catch on to the truth then you can change it how ever you like to fit your dreams. I can tell you from true experience that the world can be the happiest place but you as the individual must take action to create it in your mind first.
