You're in Control


Have you ever said, “He makes me so mad?”  Have you ever declared, “That depresses me?”  Sure, we all have.  However, I have come to learn that NO ONE or NOTHING can MAKE me do, say, or feel ANYTHING without my allowance! 

I have a declaration to make, “YOU’RE in control!”  You can choose how to react in ANY situation and it is your responsibility to do so.    You have the ABILITY to RESPOND anyway you CHOOSE.  No one has power over you except that which you give.  No one can make you mad; you choose to get mad.  No one or nothing can depress you unless you give them, or it, the power to depress you.

Isn’t it a wonderful thing that you have power over YOU.  You have power over your responses and NO ONE else.  Try to be conscious of this fact and your life will begin the change for the better.  Don’t let others or even circumstances have power over you.  Don’t give your power away.  Take charge of your life.  Choose to be happy.  Choose not to LET others control you.  Chose you this day if you will exercise your power or let others take it from you.  Remember, it’s your choice!

The Power to Grow


Man has the inherent power to grow in any direction that he CHOOSES and as far as I can tell, there is NO LIMIT to the possibilities of his growth.  Think about that statement!  Only man has the power to grow as he chooses!  A dog can be trained to respond to stimuli as many other animals can, but only man can grow and this growth takes place primarily in his mind.

Though man (I include women in that statement), can grow to become more, they often just grow old due to lack of education regarding the proper use of the mind or just plain laziness.  This to me is very sad.   What a waste to stop growing in the high school and college years and then waste the rest of ones life just being blown around by life’s circumstances.

How can you grow?  You grow by dreaming.  Become a child again and dream your biggest dream.  Dream daily and dream often.  You also grow by reading and educating yourself.  You grow by seeking for more instead of settling for “what is.”  I am a grower.  I have grown so much since being involved in network marketing.  I read, read, read!  I get involved on team calls and get educated and I work on self-improvement all the time.  I make the best investment that can be made: The investment in myself!  By investing in myself, I gain the ability to invest in others.

You, yes you, have to power to GROW.  You can choose the direction that you want to take your life.  You can be who and what you want to be.  You CAN!  Don’t settle for what life throws your way.  Decide what you want and who you want to become.  Then do what is necessary to achieve the goals you have set.

I am here for you, so contact me anytime.  I will go what I can to help you.
