Some are destined to succeed,
some are determined to succeed.
“Little by little one walks far”
“There is no chance, no destiny, no fate,
that can circumvent or hinder or control
the firm resolve of a determined soul.”

being successful means
having a balance of success stories across the many areas of your life.
You can't truly be considered successful in your business life
if your home life is in shambles.
Live In The Moment
live in the momentTo live in the moment, or now,
means being conscious, aware and in the present with all of your senses.
It means not dwelling on the past,
nor being anxious or worrying about the future.
When we concentrate our attention on the present
we focus on the task at hand.
We give our full attention to what we are doing
and we let go of outcomes.
Seizing each moment in life allows us to
prolong its value and make it more meaningful.
Rather than seeking quantity of time,
when we live in the moment we enjoy and savor every minute.
We don't sacrifice quality for quantity.
"The secret of health for both mind and body
is not to mourn for the past,
worry about the future,
or anticipate troubles,
but to live in the present momen
t wisely and earnestly."

just got back from taking my son Storm to Victoria on Vancouver Island for 2 days
wanted to take him somewhere for his spring break
i'm so busy at work could only afford to take late wed morning and all of today off
but we had a blast
of course we took Brandon with us on his 1st sea going vessel adventure
in Victoria we were lucky to have good weather although the wind was darn cold
the sun was out most of the time
we went to the Museum, walked around town, the new aquarium in Sidney by the Sea that was really cool
best of all we spent time together

Know that you deserve success and achievement.
Before beginning the process of setting goals,
know that you deserve success
and that it is achievable for anyone who puts their mind to it.
You must believe you can do what you set out to do
and that you possess the talents and abilities for doing it.
Unless you begin with this crucial premise,
your efforts will be thwarted
and you will fall short of accomplishing what you want.
When To Use Visualization
Success.
See yourself performing skills at a high level, achieving your goals,
being who you want to be and living the life you want.
To motivate.
Envision yourself achieving your goals vividly to remind yourself of your objective
and what you need to do to reach it.
Many athletes, actors, and singers "see" and "feel" themselves performing a routine,
program, or play several times perfectly in their minds before they actually do it.
To familiarize or set the stage for a performance/event.
Mental imagery can be used effectively to familiarize yourself
with the surroundings before an event, such as a competition site, a racetrack,
a stage or a difficult play or routine prior to a competition.
To do a run-through.
Athletes and performers often do a complete mental run through
of the key elements of their routines.
This helps them to focus and eliminate some pre-performance jitters,
thus making them more comfortable when the time comes to compete or perform.
It also serves as a warm-up or mini rehearsal.
Visualization is a wonderful tool for preparing for anything, and everything. It invariably results in a higher level of performance.

Goals are the fuel in the furnace of achievement.
In absence of clearly defined goals,
we become strangely loyal to performing daily acts of trivia.
Thomas Edison dreamed of a lamp that could be operated by electricity,
began where he stood to put his dream into action,
and despite more than ten thousand failures,
he stood by that dream until he made it a physical reality.
Practical dreamers do not quit.
No road is too long for him who advances slowly and does not hurry,
and no attainment is beyond his reach
who equips himself with patience to achieve it.

SELF-FULFILLING PROPHECY:
"The person with a fixed goal, a clear picture of his desire, or an ideal
always before him, causes it, through repetition,
to be buried deeply in his subconscious mind
and is thus enabled,
thanks to its generative and sustaining power,
to realize his goal in a minimum of time and with a minimum of physical effort.
Just pursue the thought unceasingly.
Step by step you will achieve realization,
for all your faculties and powers become directed to that end."
"Our goals can only be reached through a vehicle of a plan,
in which we must fervently believe,
and upon which we must vigorously act.
There is no other route to success."

The Power of Affirmations
Affirmations are positive statements that describe a desired situation,
and which are repeated many times,
in order to impress the subconscious mind
and trigger it into positive action...
WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT...
YOU BRING ABOUT !
Thought = creation.
If these thoughts are attached to powerful emotions (good or bad)
that speeds the creation

Determination Takes You Further Than the Greatest Talent!
Talent may tell you which way to go
and it may easily and most comfortably drive you some of the way
BUT it will not take you all the way.
If you know what you want and where you want to go
determination, persistence and perseverance are crucial as fuel!
Sometimes you'll run low on fuel anyway
but just decide that a gas tank will show up when you need it ... and it will.
Why?
Because your will makes it!
That's determination!...
I have know many with lots of talent…
but they don’t have the determination, drive, heart, guts and where-with-all
