“Everything is within your power, and your power is within you.” ~ Janice Trachtman

YOU have the power to overcome your past, change your present, and impact your future… one decision at a time.

But it will lie dormant until YOU tap into it.

“The beautiful journey of today can only begin when we let go of yesterday. “ ~ Steve Maraboli

The baggage of your past will only stymie the promise of your future.

Let. It. Go.

Benjamin Franklin’s quote, “don’t put off until tomorrow, what you can do today,” is a timeless truth.

In many instances, we have little control of events in our past; and, while we cannot predict the future, today is ours for the taking.

Embrace the power of now.

Now is all you have.

“The moment that you start to wonder if you deserve better, you do. “ ~ Anonymous

You are worth it.

Whatever “it” is ….

You are.

“If you’re not positive energy, you’re negative energy. “ – Mark Cuban

You’re either building up or tearing down, praising or condemning, celebrating or hating.

There’s no in-between.

Pick a side.

“Learning how to work and learning how to fail is important. “ – Jamie Moyer

I’m thankful for every fall, for every “no”, and for every closed door. It is in these moments of defeat, that I’ve been strengthened; in these moments of despair that I’ve been empowered; and in these moments of distress that I’ve learned.

Failure isn’t the destination; it’s a rest stop, affording me the opportunity to regroup, course correct, and prepare for the next journey.

Failure is growth, when you embrace it as such.

“Tell me I can’t and watch me work twice as hard to prove you wrong. “ ~ Heather Mitts

Silence the naysayers, not with your words but with your work.

Actions speak.

“Every morning you have two choices: continue to sleep with your dreams, or wake up and chase them.” ~ Anonymous

You decide whether you actively pursue your goals or allow excuses to keep you stuck in the norm.

Taking the steps toward your dreams is a choice. Inaction is also a choice.

Everything in life is a choice.

#NoExcuses

“Surround yourself with electric people. “ ~ George Raveling

Be aware of who you allow in your inner circle.

Your inner circle is often indicative of your inner beliefs, inner thoughts; your entire inner “self”.

Iron sharpens Iron.

“For today, think positive thoughts and believe in yourself. “ ~ Anonymous

Faith moves mountains. Faith in yourself and your ability to win at life, gives you the power and energy to clear every hurdle and stumbling block that presents itself in your life.

Believe the best of your world.

Believe the best of your family and friends.

Believe the best of YOU.

No one should believe in YOU more than YOU believe in you.
