“You are essentially who you create yourself to be
and all that occurs in your life
is the result of your own making.”
~ Stephen Richards.
One of the greatest internal powers we have, is the power to control our own thoughts. And the one thing all of us need to act on, is to get our thoughts back on track with positive ideas …… You see, most of us have dreams. But some people never see their dreams come true. Instead of soaring through the clouds, their dreams languish like a broken down limousine, confined to its workshop.
The most fascinating part of dreams is; the more vivid and clear the thought, the more we come back to it and consequently the stronger it becomes. Or, each time we rethink and dwell on it, or layer it with other thoughts, we are strengthening the structure on which we build our idea. And dreams are limited only by our power of imagination and the strength of our desire.
Thus, you may say, our success depends on how well we think. While we may have a tendency to let our attitudes take the dive along with our state of affairs but, don’t you think if we are going to be successful, we need to know how to deal with them and keep our attitude intact?
Very often we come across people who aren’t following their dreams, resent us from pursuing our dreams. They feel inadequate when we succeed. So they try to drag us down. But, on another note, people are improving their lives every day. Whether you do or not, doesn’t matter to those who do. They are going to do it, regardless. It is simply a decision being made. But, why not let the person be you?
While life keep dealing us with setbacks; both major and minor, we have to be mindful that we pilot our own dreams. We cannot entrust them to anyone else. Indecision is the thief of opportunity. It will steal our chances of a better future. So be courageous in your life and in the pursuit of things you want and the person you want to become.
Let your dream run free …… We are either trapped by the regret of the past or the routine of the present. What that affect our dream is our own ability to see the future. Thus, always make sure the greatest pull on you is the pull of the future. Be mindful, life is not a sprint but a marathon. Be the tortoise, not the hare. Take your time, do it right. Keep going in the right direction and don’t give up quality for speed. Don’t be easily discouraged. Breakthrough ideas often occur when we are calmly searching for opportunities. They rarely occur when we are anxious and frustrated. Remember, slow start, work up to high speeds, go the distance.

LOvely positive post Michael. This is the first post of yours that I’ve been able to get for some time… one won’t open at all, just gives a great chinging sound, and the others tell me they can’t find you… so this was a treat. So if you think I haven’t been around, that will be the reason in the future… a mystery…

I´ve being married for 11 year and I left home last July for domestic violence and since them my ex husband were forbid to contact me, very sad. We both live in Spain but we are from different Countries, we don´t have any relatives over here, luckily I have wonderful friends … and after 7 months waiting, my divorce is on February 8th, hope everything will be fine. Sometimes we have to go through bad situations in our life to be free for true happiness! Thank you for listening, your words always inspire me and make my day much better! 🙂

Great advice! I really like “indecision is the thief of opportunity” and “Breakthrough ideas often occur when we are calmly searching for opportunities. They rarely occur when we are anxious and frustrated”. Both are very good points but easy to lose sight of. Thank you for sharing!
