When You’re Determined


When You’re Determined
“I have learned that success is to be measured not so much
by position that one has reached in life  as by the
obstacles which he has had to overcome
while trying to succeed.”
Booker T. Washington, educator

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

When you’re determined

You can reach the heights of success when you’re determined . . . . to do it.

The position that you reach on your success journey is a reflection of your persistent of effort . . . . and in focusing on achieving their desired outcome.

When you look at the obstacles that a person had to overcome to achieve success; you look into the measure of the person’s character in their efforts and determination to succeed.

The secret of a successful person is in overcoming great obstacles on their success journey in order to reach greater success. Successful people are committed to their success and with that commitment. They will remain focused on their goals . . . . and will work through their obstacles maintaining a positive can do it attitude.

Use your obstacles as stepping stones to greater success . . . . not road blocks on your success journey.

Success is measured by overcoming obstacles . . . . when your determined you create the personal power to overcome your obstacles  and on achieving your goals.

Pull Other People Up


Motivational Power Quote

Pull Other People Up
There are two ways of exerting one’s strength:
one is pushing down, the other is pulling up.”
Booker T. Washington 1856 - 1915, African American
Educator, Author, Orator  

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

Pull other people up

There are two ways that a person can lead their lives . . . . and find their real strength and purpose.

One can lead a life of pushing the people around down. They will also try to suppress the person’s personal growth . . . . and ambitions while restraining the person’s progress and success.

This type of person has self-esteem issues . . . . and is they are trying to conceal it by treating the people around them harshly. By pushing people down gives that person the false allusion of satisfaction. 

This person will eventually . . . . self-destruct.

There is another type of person that spends their lifetime in pulling and pushing people up.

They are the mentors in life . . . . that person will be there to give a person a boost at just the right time . . . . and help them to push up when it’s needed.

The mentors are the giver in life and what they do is not done for recognition or personal gain. The giver gains person satisfaction in helping others to succeed . . . . and in helping them to achieve their goals.

But something happens along the way for a giver, they become recognized for what they have done . . . . and what they have contributed to others. They will attract success through their efforts of giving.  

There are two types of pushers in life the person who pushes people down . . . . and the person that pushes people up and boosters them. There are light years of differences between the two.

The path way to success and achievement is to pull other people up and you will find your strength and purpose.

We Will Judged By What We Do


Motivational Power Quote


We Will Judged By What We Do
“The world cares very little
about what a men or woman knows;
it is what a man or woman is
able to do that counts.”
Booker T. Washington, American political leader    


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

We will be judged by what we do

We can talk about what we’re going to do; but the world will judge us by what we do and accomplish.

People don’t care much about what we might do; they are not interested in us talking about someday isle; they want to see us do it and get it done.

Focus your life on doing what has to be done to the best of your ability. Be seen as a doer not a talker.

We will be judged by what we do. Be a person of action and achievement.

What You Do is What Counts

Motivational Power Quote


What You Do is What Counts
“The world cares very little about
what a man or woman knows;
it is what a man or woman is
able to do that’s counts.”
Booker T. Washington, educator, author

 
As I see it. . . . . . . .


What you do is what counts
We can talk about what has to be done, but without action our talk has no value.


We can be the smartest person in the room, but without using that knowledge, our knowledge has very little value.
What matters is how you use your skills and knowledge that you have been blessed with to do what has to be done.
