"To look is one thing. To see what you look at is another. To understand what you see is a third. To learn from what you understand is still something else. But to ACT on what you learn is all that really matters." ~W Mitchell
Here's a simple 5 step process to success. There are no secrets to success. You can just look around and see many ways that people have been successful and here's 1 more way...5 simple steps. They are not easy however they are simple!
1. Look. 2. See. 3. Understand. 4. Learn. 5. ACT!
Some people can't even do the first step, they don't even bother to look. Some people look, but they don't see. The some people see but fail to understand what it is that they see. Still others get to the understanding part but never learn about their understanding. And then there are those that get the first 4 but fail to ACT! Which one are you? Why?
What is holding you back? Only you are holding yourself back, no one else. It's not the economy, your job, your friends, family, no. You are the only thing holding yourself back...why? .
Action:
Think about that today and break free from whatever that is holding you back. If you are having trouble sorting it out, look back at the simple 5 steps to success and see where you are getting stuck.

Waiting For Others Approval?
"Waiting on others to approve a change you know you must make in your own life -- an action you must take that will likely lessen your dependency upon them, and perhaps drive them to make changes in their habitual choices -- is like hoping that a snowman looks forward to a spring thaw." ~Guy Finley
Are you waiting for others to approve of your changes? Why? We so long to belong, to be accepted, to be loved...that we allow ourselves to be lost in who we are, just for acceptance. When we do that, we diminish who we are and we don't play big, we shrink and play small.
Here's the deal. Most of the people around you really don't care about you, only what you can do for them. That is why they are upset when you try to improve yourself, because you are leaving them behind and they want to keep you down with them.
Have you ever seen a bucket of crabs? One will try to get out and the others will pull him back, not let him get away. I don't know why they do that but they do...and so do people. They don't want to be left behind, so they do everything they can to keep you down with them.
Break free of those people and become who you were meant to be. Don't play small anymore, play BIG! The world will love you for it, but you might need to get new friends. While that may be a challenge, it is for the better, because who you hang around with does influence who you are. Who are you hanging with???

One of my favorite quotes is that "It's none of my business what you think of me." You see, when I make it my business, then I change who I am to please you...looking for your approval.

Selling Yourself Short?
"The story of the human race is the story of men and women selling themselves short." ~ Abraham Maslow
I see this every day. People dragging themselves to jobs they hate because they sell themselves short as to what they really could do. They are stuck in life and afraid to break out. They sell themselves short as to what they could do or accomplish if they only decided to. How many people do you know that are selling themselves short...way too many!
Dr. Seuss said “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.” Don't ever let anyone make you believe that you cannot do anything you want to. You can steer yourself in any direction YOU CHOOSE! It's YOUR choice, no one elses.
Stop selling yourself short...NOW!
