“Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, ‘I will try again tomorrow.'”

 

~Mary Anne Radmache

 

You’ve made it through the first month of 2013.  Congratulations!  Reflect back on the month with gratitude for the people you’ve had the chance to be with and interact with.  Think about what you have learned from your experiences and interactions.  Give yourself kudos for the actions taken and progress made in those areas of life you have committed to improving – no matter how small the gains.  And finally, note the times you were not your best self and the opportunities to make progress that were missed due to your own choices.  But don’t beat yourself up for these.  Realize that you can try again tomorrow.  That each day holds the opportunity to move forward and to take the actions needed to be and achieve what you desire.

You have all you need

Pedigree, intelligence, good looks, talents, and contacts are clearly helpful in the quest to achieve.  However, the world is full of people who rose from humble stock and with little or no assets to achieve great things.  Just as there are those with amazing talents and assets who do nothing with them.  Why would you choose to be less than any of these people?  You have all you need to begin making a difference today.  Start.
