Gatitude

Its 1:00 in the afternoon here and I just got home from the golf course. My wife is fixing lunch for our daughter before we head out for the afternoon to get her a new bike and run a few more errands. How many people out there can say that about a friday? If you look at Facebook all your news feeds are TGIF or I can't wait to get out of here. A lot of them are already moaning that Monday will be here in a few days!

My point is this, be grateful for what you have and your life will have a lot better flow to it. All of that TGIF and moaning about the weekend being too short is, in essence, making it shorter. If you don't like going to work on Mondays then start making the decisions that will allow you to play golf during the week while everyone else is at work, like I get to do. Or, do whatever it is that you look forward to. What most people don't understand is that they are not victims of the circumstances, but victims of their own decisions. You see, every decision you have ever made has led you to where you are right now.

If you want to change your job or your life then you must first change the way you think. Be grateful for what you already have, and start making the decisions that will get you towards your goal. If you want to lose weight, begin to think of yourself as a thin person, and the chocolate cake will be easier to resist. Want a promotion at work, begin to see yourself in that position, and you will become that person. Want to strike out on your own and be self-employed? Then make the decision that is who you want to be and take all out massive action. We only get one go around at life, live it the way you want to and you will never have any regrets. People have always given me a hard time because I always went against the grain, but I played golf three days this week while they were at work.

To your Success!
