“People who live in the past generally are afraid to compete in the present. I’ve got my faults, but living in the past is not one of them. There’s no future in it.”~Sparky Anderson
Are you afraid of competing in the present? Are you living in your past? As Sparky said, "there's no future in it." The key is to always be present. Don't live in the past and don't spend a lot of time in the future, stay in the present.
Robert Collier said "Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out." That's the key, day in and day out. It doesn't say anything about yesterday or tomorrow, but day in and day out. Live for today, work for today, for today may be all you ever get. Yesterday is gone and tomorrow is too far away.
Action:
Be present today. Stop living in the past and stop living in the future. Today is the only time you can live, so be present today. Repeat your disciplines day in and day out and at the end of the day, let it go, it's done, it's gone.
Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!

How Present Are You?

Think about Your Thoughts
"Make every thought, every fact, that comes into your mind pay you a profit. Make it work and produce for you. Think of things not as they are but as they might be. Don't merely dream -- but create!" ~ Robert Collier
Too often, we don't even think about what we think about. Think about that for a minute...Do you make every thought pay you a profit? It takes a strong mind to be able to do that. Most of the time, thoughts just filter in and out without any real thought about the thought. (I know, a little to much to think about??)
When a thought flows into your mind, STOP and think about that thought, rather than letting it go. There are reasons that you think what you think and a lot of times, you are getting the answer to a question or a problem you've been working on.
Think of things not as they are but as they might be. Most people are too stuck in the problem that they can't think of a solution. Or they are too stuck in the past. Get out of the problem and live in the solutions. Get out of the past and live in the present. Living in the past never solved anyone's problems.
Action:
Stop and think about what you think about. It's called Metacognition and will help you become better at whatever you are doing. Stay in the present. That's where everything happens!!

Your Infinite Possibilities
"The future is simply infinite possibility waiting to happen. What it waits on is human imagination to crystallize its possibility." ~ Leland Kaiser
YES. YOUR future is infinite possibility waiting to happen!!! It really is, you just need to embrace that. What you've embraced so far isn't infinite possibility, but more likely just finite probability. Things that you've just accepted as your future rather than things that you've created for your future.
What are you waiting on? Use your imagination! Remember when you were a kid and the world seemed like endless possibilities were everywhere? Then people started tearing your dreams and possibilities down. "You can't do that." "Nobody in our family has done that." "Be realistic, you have no chance of doing that."
Action:
Stop living out of your past and start living out of your imagination! NOW! Seize your infinite possibilities today!
