You’re as Young as Your Ideas

 You’re as Young as Your Ideas

“Nobody grows old by merely by living a number of years.

People grow old by deserting their ideas. You are

as young as your faith, as old as your doubts;

as young as your self-confidence, as old

as your fear; as young as your hope,

as old as your despair.”

Douglas Mac Arthur 1880 -1964, American 5 Star 

General US Army

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

You’re as young as your ideas.

You’re as young as your ideas . . . . your beliefs and your hopes.

You don’t grow old in years . . . . You grow old in your thinking by shutting off the flow of new ideas . . . . and drifting into the world of self-doubts and the questioning of your ability.

Keep your thoughts positive and your mind open to new ideas . . . . and to keep the new possibilities flowing. And you’re mind will remain young and receptive . . . . and shut off any self-doubts.  With a positive outlook you’ll step into the future with a high degree of self-confidence.

When you believe in yourself, in your abilities . . . . and have faith in yourself and in your actions you will keep your mind active and young.

You’re as young as your ideas . . . . and as old as our self-limiting beliefs.

Always Be True to Yourself

“Above all, be true to yourself, and if you cannot put

your heart in it, Take yourself out of it.”

Hardy D. Jackson

As I see it . . . . . .

Always be true to yourself

Your beliefs . . . . determine the results

Your belief at the beginning of any challenging situation makes all the difference. When you believe in yourself it removes your doubts . . . . and you set your course of action with confidence.

As you move into uncharted waters, there is apprehension and uncertainty. It’s at that moment that your beliefs will determine your outcome. 

Your beliefs determine the results . . . . and become the building block to successful results.

Always be true to yourself . . . . and be confidence in your actions and follow the path to success.

Believe That You Can Do it

Believe That You Can Do It

“Believe it can be done.

When you believe something can be done,

really believe, your mind will find the way to do it.

Believing a solution paves the way to the solution.”

Dr. David Schwartz, Motivational Expert

As I see it. . . . . . .

Your thoughts pave the way to find the solution for what you have to do. Those thoughts will keep you focused on the desired outcome until you successfully achieve the desired outcome.

Believe that you can do it . . . . and then jump in with both feet and do everything in your power to make that believe come true.

Your Confidence Comes to the Surface

Your Confidence Comes to the Surface

“Experience tells you what to do: confidence allows

you to do it.”

Stan Smith, Professional Tennis Player   

   

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

Your confidence comes to the surface

When the chips are down and your back is to the wall your confidence comes to the surface. How you respond to challenging situations will be a direct reflection of the level of confidence that you have in yourself.

Having confidence in yourself will give you the confidence in your decision making, acting with confidence . . . . and in finding successful solutions.

You will draw on your past experiences to guild you . . . . and you will step up to a challenging situation with your emotions under control. You will have the confidence that you will make good decisions . . . . and that you will act in accordance to your beliefs.

Your confidence will show in the way you carry yourself . . . . and in your actions. It will also show in the way that you interact with people.

You will also find that when you have confidence in yourself and you reflect that confidence in your actions, people will respect you. That respect will carry over every aspect of your life.

Your confidence comes to the surface . . . . and when you show a high level of confidence in yourself people will reflect the same level of confidence in you.

Have Faith In Yourself and Push Your Limits

Have Faith In Yourself and Push Your Limits

“I had ambition not only to go farther than any man

had ever been before, but as far as it was possible

for a man to go.”

James R. Cook, explorer

   

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

Have faith in yourself and push your limits

There are two types of limits that will affect you as we travel through your life’s journey. Those that are imposed on you by others based on their limited beliefs . . . . and those that you impose on yourself.

You will meet two types of people on your success journey. One type will be the type of person that will encourage you to push your limits to the max . . . . and challenge you to stretch yourself to reach for greater success.

This group of people wants to see you succeed and will be there to encourage you and they will be there to push you when you need a push. Also they will be there for you when you need a helping hand. You will identify them as you family, friends, coworkers, coaches, mentors, managers and the special people in your life.

They’re the people who really care about you and want to see you succeed. They are ready to stand behind the scenes and be there for you. They will contribute to your success and they also may be a positive difference in your life.

There is also another group of people that have a small and narrow mind . . . . and become jealous when someone succeeds. When they see someone succeed they will say that the person was lucky and when someone fails they’re the first one to speak up and say that they known that the person couldn’t do it.

They belittle someone success and gloat when someone fails. There neither a friend nor mentor . . . . they are an anchor that’s trying to weight you down and watch you sink.

They will never encourage anyone and more then likely will tell a person why something can’t be done.  They take pleasure in trying to discourage you ideas and will make an extra effort to try to hold you back.

As much as you’re affected by outside sources the on your success journey the person that has the most influence your success and the direction of your life . . . . is you.

You will either push yourself to push your limits . . . . Or you will convince yourself that something can’t be done . . . . and take what life hands you.

Success is not found in the status quo of walking in someone’s footprints but in blazing a new path and putting down your own footprints where others have not walked before. Success is found when you have the faith in yourself and to push your limits.

Believe That There is no Such Thing as I Can't

Motivational Power Quote

Believe That There is No Such Thing as I Can’t

I can accept failure, but I can’t accept not trying.

Michael Jordon, NBA Hall of Fame Basketball Player

As I see it . . . . . . .

Believe that there is no such thing as I can’t

If we believe that you can . . . . we will find a way to do it . . . . if you believe you can’t . . . . you won’t.

What ever you believe becomes your dominant thought . . . . and in time, what you think and believe you will do.

I can or I can’t is a choice. I can is a choice of push forward overcoming obstacles to reach your goals. I can’t is a choice to quit on yourself . . . . and starts the slide backwards.

There is no such thing as I can’t. The person that says they can’t is a person that’s really saying . . . . that they won’t try.

Your beliefs determine the outcome before you start. The possibility thinker thinks in terms of I can and then takes the actions with the positive outlook of I will.

There is not such thing as I can’t only those with the mind set of I won’t.

Believe that there is no such thing as I can’t . . . . believe you can and you will find the way to do it.

Your Life Becomes an Echo of Your Choices

Motivational Power Quote

Your Life Becomes an Echo of Your Choices

“Life is an echo – what you send out comes back.”

Chinese Proverb   

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

Your life becomes an echo of your choices

What you send out into the world is returned to you in like kind  . . . . . and your life becomes an echo of your choices and beliefs.

How you see your world will be determined by the view from the path that we had chosen to travel. Your view is shaped by the events of our life’s journey and your choices.

The path of your life

The direction of your life is the path that you have chosen to follow.

Many times your current path has turned into a rut that leads to nowhere but heartache.

You are the only person that can make the choice to change your life and make the choice to climb out of the rut and into the sunshine of new opportunities.      

At any moment in time you can make the choice to change the direction of your life by changing the path that you have been following.

Your attitude is an echo of who we are

Your attitude will determine the way you see the world and the people that you come into contact with . . . . will judge you by our attitude. 

Your attitude will determine your actions and your results.

What message is your attitude sending out to the world?

The qualities of your choices

The qualities of your choices are returned to you by the quality of your results.

The quality of your results will determine your direction, either by moving you closer to achieving your goals or moving you further away from your objectives.

How we see yourself

How you see yourself is a mirror of how the world sees you.

Having positive self-image enables you to believe in yourself, in their actions and in your choices to move forward with confidence. 

A benefit of a positive self-image is being treated with respect and confidence by others.

How you treat people

People will treat you in a manner consistent with the way you treat them.

Listen to people and they will listen to you. Treat with respect and they will respect you. Show them that you care and share their concerns and you will create rapport. When you make them feel important you will become a person of influence in their lives.

Treat people the way we want to be treated.

Your life becomes an echo of your choices . . . . your  actions and beliefs.

Believing You Can - Makes it Possible

Motivational Power Quote

Believing You Can - Makes it Possible

“In order to succeed, we must first believe we can.”

Michael Korda, editor-in-chief Simon & Schuster  

 

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

Believing you can - makes it possible

Your actions will always be consistent with your beliefs . . . . And whatever you believe to be possible you will act out.

The person with the beliefs that there are unlimited opportunities will find a path where doors continually open for them and the opportunities seem to be behind every door.

People who believe that they have unlimited potential will pursue their future with the attitude that there will not be any limits on the success that they will achieve.

The person that believes it’s possible will see the doors of opportunity and have the challenge to open them.

A person with unlimited beliefs believes that everything and anything is possible.

They believe that their potential is unlimited and what you believe you will achieve.

The worst beliefs that a person can have is that of self-limiting beliefs. Their beliefs will set artificial limits and ceiling on what that person will do and achieve in their life and how they live their life. They will live a life of un-fulfillment and missed opportunities. 

First you have to believe you can do it and then you will do it.

Believing you can – makes it possible . . . . Working hard what you want makes it a reality.

Your Beliefs Determines Who You Are

and what you do attests to what you believe.”

A Course of Miracles  

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

Your beliefs determines who are

Whatever you believe with passion becomes your reality; this is especially true about what you believe about yourself.

A person will see things in accordant to their beliefs and what they see will become their reality and determine their course of actions.

You will always act in a way consistent with your personal beliefs.

What you believe is a personal choice. Believes become the foundation for your convictions and your actions.

You are free to choose what you believe and your beliefs determine who you are, the path you travel and what you achieve.

Strong Convictions

Motivational Power Quote

Strong Convictions

“He who beliefs is strong;

he who doubts is weak.

Strong convictions precedes

great action.”

J.F. Clarke

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


Strong convictions . . . .


He that’s believes in themselves creates inner strong and puts down a solid foundation to build a successful career and a life.


When we have doubts it destabilizes our thinking, and the actions we take. Doubt is the foundation for failure and leading a life that unfulfilled.


As we lay down a strong foundation from our personal believes we build strong convictions, those convictions determine our actions.

We Achieve in Life What We Believe

Motivational Power Quote


We Achieve in Life What We Believe


“We cannot achieve more in life
than what we believe
in our hearts we deserve to have.”
James R. Ball


As I see it. . . . . . . .
We achieve in life what we believe.

Believing in ourselves is a choice. To achieve success we have to believe in ourselves, our dreams, and our abilities.

Our personal belief system begins with our attitude. A positive attitude creates a positive self image and beliefs, while a negative attitude creates a negative self image and negative beliefs. Our outcome will mirror our attitude.

Believe in what you can do. Setbacks and obstacles will occur on our success journey, they are only temporary, unless we decide to quit.

Believe in what you can do, take advantage and build your future from your strengths.

The choice of what we believe we can accomplish and what we believe is our choice.

We will achieve in life what we believe we can do. Become a possibility thinker, believe you deserve success, set your goals and then go out and achieve them.
