When Change is Needed, Start with Our Self

Motivational Power Quote

When Change is Needed, Start with Our Self
“Often we change jobs, friends, and spouses
instead of ourselves.”
Akbarali H. Hetha


As I see it. . . . . . . .

When change is needed, start with our self.

Lasting change comes from within and manifests itself in our thinking and our actions.

When we become unhappy with the things in our life, we change them rather then to continue to face what makes us unhappy.

We can change our spouses, were we live, our jobs and our friends. But what we find is things don’t change; only the things around us have changed but the same old stuff is still there.

Lasting change only occurs when we change ourselves.

Change your thinking and find the sources of dissatisfaction and evaluate the why the dissatisfaction in there, focus on changing yourself and changing what causing the sense of being dissatisfied.

What are you doing to create a positive environment and relationships in your life?

What are you doing to create a negative environment?

Change the way you view your life, and change your environment.

Lasting change will only occur when we commit our self to change and then make the changes.

Focus on being thankful for what you have and your relationships.

Motivational Power Quote


Never Be Bullied
“Never be bullied into silence.
Never allow yourself to be made a victim.
Accept no one definition of your life;
define yourself.”
Harvey Feinstein


As I see it. . . . . . . .


Never be bullied.


There are times that you voice an opinion and someone takes an opposing view to what you said and they try to bully you into silence and submission.


Bullying can take place in private, in groups or through a third party.


When someone is disagreeing with your and attempting to bully you, they will try to belittle you in front of other people to make you feel weak and to assert themselves into a power position.


They will try to make fun of your position to make you feel irrelevant, and there are times where they will call you names to try to intimidate you.


Why because they feel threaten because your position is strong and they’re fighting back from a weak position by trying to bully you into submission.


Don’t allow anyone to make you the victim.


We see bullying in every aspect of life, stand up to the bully by remaining in control. If lose your temper you lose control of the situation.


If the person bullying you is out of control, remain calm and stay in control.
