It Takes Courage to Say No

It Takes Courage to Say No

“Have the courage to say no.

Have the courage to face the truth.

Do the right thing because it is right.

These are the magic keys to living your life with integrity.”

W. Clement Stone 1902 – 2002, Businessman, Philanthropist,

 Self Help Author

As I see it . . . . . . .

It takes courage to say no . . . . . . . . and to do the right thing

If you do things that don’t feel right, you’ll find that after you do them that what you were feeling was right.

It’s easy to go against your instincts. In situations like this you should follow and your instincts and do what’s right.

If it doesn’t feel right to you it’s not . . . . follow your instincts.

Do the right things for the right reasons . . . . and do them with integrity and you find yourself on the right path.

Doing what’s right is more important than doing what’s politically correct. Doing what’s politically correct is compromising your personal integrity . . . . and moves you in the wrong direction. 

Doing what’s politically correct . . . . and not doing what’s right will have a negative affect on a persons reputation.

There are times to move forward . . . . and to take curtain actions and there are times to have the courage to say no.

Overtime, people will judge us our integrity and by our actions.

Act from integrity and do the right thing and it takes courage to say no . . . . when it’s the right thing to do.

The Inner Strength of Your Courage

The Inner Strength of Your Courage

“Courage teaches us what should be feared and what

ought not be feared. Only by taking action do we gain

that knowledge. And from that knowledge comes an

inner strength that inspires us preserve in the face of

great adversity – and inspires others to follow.

In the most difficult of times, courage is what makes

someone a leader.”

John C. Maxwell, Minister, Author and Leadership Expert      

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

The inner strength of your courage

It’s your inner strength to do the right thing for the right reasons . . . .  and not to cave in to do what’s popular that creates the foundation for a successful life.

Your inner strength gives you the courage to step out of the safety of your comfort zone. It will guide you to take the steps and actions that will carry you closer to achieving your goals.

You’re not born with courage.

You develop courage over time from overcoming the storms in your life and in facing your adversities. Your courage comes as a result of your life lessons. Your life lessons create the experiences and those experiences create your wisdom. From those lessons and wisdom you developed courage.

A person with courage will stretch their limits in the direction of success using their experiences and knowledge that they have accumulated on their life’s journey.

Your life experiences become an invaluable resource on your success journey and in your decision making.

Your experiences will help you to make better decisions . . . . and will also reduce your fear and increase of confidence in the pursuit of your goals.

The inner strength of your courage  . . . . will help you to live your life with passion and to follow your dreams with persistence’s.

Success Is In The Journey

Motivational Power Quote

Success Is In The Journey

“You reach the pinnacle of success

as soon as you become uninterested

in the money, compliments, or publicity.”

Thomas Wolfe 1900 - 1938, novelist

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

Success is in the journey

Success is in the feeling of accomplishment and in achieving of goals.

Success is working through the setbacks and the failures and coming out the other side still standing.

Success is standing on the top of the mountain and knowing that you claimed that mountain.

Success is in the journey and the achievements you accomplish along the way. It’s in knowing that you did the right thing.

The pinnacle of success is in the knowing that you put your whole heart into the effort and that you gave it your very best.

Success is in the journey and in enjoying the moments of your life.
