LEARNING TO RIDE A BICYCLE AGAIN
As a child, when we first learn to ride a bicycle, we fell many times and
hurt ourselves in the process before we finally learn how to balance ourselves
correctly to ride.
In taking steps to learn, we are bound to make mistakes
and fail sometimes. It is this fear of failure that stop some of us from
venturing out to learn new ideas or take up new opportunities.
|
|
Let us remind ourselves to learn as a child again and
understand
that we must keep changing our actions until we attain the results we desire. Taking
action is a risk that all of us must take in order to succeed. So, let us
keep trying and trying, like a child learning to ride, till we succeed.
As a smart teacher said, "There are really no mistakes in life - there are
only lessons". As Henry Ford said, "Failure is the
opportunity to begin again, more intelligently".

THINKING POSITIVELY
Tell yourself every morning that, "Today is the first day of the rest of my
life". Welcome the new day by starting it with a clean slat.
Make plans to live every moment of your day to pursue your own personal
excellence by filling it with:
1) fresh opportunities
2) new choices
3) new goals
|
|
WHAT ARE THE THINGS YOU DO BEST?
List out your accomplishments and see if you can improve and make them work for
you. Create opportunities from your accomplishments.
File all the negative thoughts that your have about yourself under
"FEAR, UNDER ESTIMATION AND FALSE ASSUMPTIONS" and delete them as you learn to overcome these
fears and build up your self-esteem through reading or attending motivational talks. |

NEW CHOICES
Live your life to the fullest by rebuilding your enthusiasm for life with BIG
DREAMS. Visualize the lifestyle you want to attain by starting your
"Dream Works" Chart. Fill it with pictures of the kind of home you want to
live in, the kind of car you want to drive, the kind of holiday you want to
enjoy with your family.
Make plans, set specific goals and follow them through
to attain your
dreams. Do
not let your "Fear, Underestimation and False Assumptions" stop you from having big dreams.
Instead of saying you do not have the time, the money, the chance, or you are
just too old to start, say positive things to attain your hopes and dreams.
Say, "I will find the time", "I will assess my strengths, my skills,
my creativity and my talents to see where
I might be able to make extra money or find an opportunity to make the
kind of money for the kind of lifestyle that I want for my family".
Say, "Everyday in every way, I am getting better and
better."

GETTING THERE
It is the weekend again and you are able to fill up the day with great
activities for yourself and your family because you have planned ahead:
1) how you want to spend it
2) where you want to spend it
3) how much time you want to spend on it
Planning the day is something that you do naturally and if you apply it to
planning how to attain your goals within a specific period of time and follow it
through, you will get there.
