Make A Decision To Be The Person You Want To Be!





I love to ask questions, especially when it makes us think about our answers. This is one for you. Are you satisfied with any area of your life at this time?

If you answer yes I certainly applaud you. You have made a choice that makes this possible.

I remember when I was a little girl, tall, skinny and a stutterer. You know how ruthless kids can be. They enjoyed picking on me, the more they picked the more I stuttered and went inward. I told my mother I did not have any friends and no one liked me.

Her answer is with me still, today. She said, "Harriette if you want a friend, be a friend." Or in other words give your friendship away so that it will come back to you.

I did not really understand what she meant so she explained further. Choose a person you like and be kind to them and be the friend you want someone to be to you. I gradually stepped out and did exactly that. This specific person did not become a good friend although years later we still respect each other. Her best friend became my best friend.

I didn't understand until years later what an important lesson this is. To me today it means: whatever I want, I first have to be that person and give freely what I want to receive back. If you want a specific person to come into your life, be the person you want to attract.

If you want to attract money into your life, yes, definitely, give some of the green stuff away. It does not have to be a great deal of money. It is the spirit behind a gift.

Gift money to a person or organization who has supported you spiritually or a charity you believe in. Do not expect it back. It will come to you. There is no other way.

If you want a successful business treat the one you have as if it is a million dollar enterprise. Be the business leader a multimillion-dollar enterprise would have at its helm. Be the leader you admire and respect.

William James says, " Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does."

In other words, what would this owner do daily to grow the business, when you get the answer you seek, do what this owner does to grow his business.

Everything you are today, or ever will be in the future, is up to you. Your life today is the sum total result of your choices, decisions and actions up to this point.

Make a decision today to be the person you want to be. Accept nothing short of that.

Honor yourself!

Re: Quote of the Day - "The only people witho - Thanks for sharing this Evan, there are some very powerful quotes in there, I particularly like this one:- You are now at a crossroads. This is your opportunity to make the most important decision you will ever make. Forget your past. Who are you now? Who have you decided you really are now? Don't think about who you have been. Who are you now? Who have you decided to become? Make this decision consciously. Make it carefully. Make it powerfully. regards, Mal.
Re: Subject line Etiquette - [quote="jvprosperity":b50c4a20]Another email rant: Is there some place on the internet that outlines proper "Subject line" headings? There mus be a system out there that people use to be more efficient email senders. Not everything that comes into my mail box requires my immediate attention. I would love to educate myself and the people who send me emails on proper subject lines. Maybe something like: "Urgent Review: <<Title of document>>" "Decision Required: "<<Subject matter>>" just something for me to quickly scan the subject lines and decide which ones need my immediate attention. Anyone know of such email standards that exist out there?[/quote:b50c4a20] The only messages I get that say Urgent or Decision Required etc are spam. I tell people to put something relevant to their business with me in the subject line - this is especially important for the people who fall into my junk mail. Chris

Respect?!? - Hi there, A successful business depends on ongoing series of transactions. This inlvolves people. To what extend is respect important? When one thinks of himself alone, like me, me and me, how can respect become real? How many types of respect can we come up with? I think of a few: Respect of disagreement can be one. Then there is Respect of the Customer. Respect of position. Respect of 'Older Person'. By the same token, Respect of the 'Younger ones'. etc..... Has anybody got any other ideas on this subject. Kindest Regards Beat "Unlock People's Potentials!"
