Confidence

The only thing to fear is fear itself

You have the power to achieve your biggest and brightest dreams. The only catch is that sometimes in order to reach those dreams, you have to face your deepest, darkest fears. The good news is that the things you fear the most are never as bad as you think.

You Must Not Quit

 

 When things go wrong; as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a fellow turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out.
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow,
You might succeed with another blow,

Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man;
Often the struggler has given up,
When he might have captured the victor’s cup;
And he learned too late when the night came down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit,
It’s when things seem the worst that you must not quit.

NO. REGRETS.

Live life with no regrets. One of my rules of thumb is if I'm hesitant to do something, I think about whether or not I'd regret it if I woke up tomorrow and the opportunity was gone forever. If the answer is a resounding "YES!!!!!!!", then I go for it.

Become what you choose

We all go through bad things in life. Each of us knows personal pain. However, we have a choice - we can either let those bad things take us down and rule our lives or use them as a spring board to take your life into positive directions you have never imagined.

During 2010, I had a number of negative things hit me all at once. At the end of it all, I said that 2010 was the best and worst year of my life. I had people ask how that was possible and I said, "It was the worst because of what happened to me, but it was the best because of what I made of it".

I cheated on my fears...

Unconditional Love

I have a feeling my dog would say this to me if she could. I feel it when she pounces me  and knocks me over at the door when I get home from work.
