HOW LONG WILL YOU TRY? CHANGING YOUR LIFE WITH WORDS - DAY 128

Are you a great starter?  Are you a great finisher?  I tend to be a great starter but not so much a great finisher.  I am the person with the closet full of UFOs (unfinished objects).  There are so many things I like to do or want to learn to do, but I get easily bored and easily sidetracked.  However, this trait is only as it relates to me.  I always finish anything I promise to others.  In my working life I was always on top of things and always met deadlines.

Why would I do that for others but not for myself? It is because I know that sooner or later I will finish those things that are currently resting in the closet.  Delays are okay as long as you are not harming anyone else by not finishing what you start.

I know that sooner or later

I'LL GET THERE!

YOUR PATH OR SOMEONE ELSE'S? CHANGING YOUR LIFE WITH WORDS - DAY 13

When you finally decide to take steps to change any facet of your life, you will start to develop a path to follow to get you where you want to be.  Being human you may very easily get sidetracked by negative thoughts, by opinions of other people who may not support you or the changes you are making,  or by slow progress.

Just as you use a road map when you are driving to an unfamiliar location (or your GPS system if you have one), you must stay on the path you develop.  Do not allow yourself or others to change your course, and remember that some changes will occur more quickly than others.  Speed of progress does not always equate with long term success.

You are smart.  You are capable. You will find your own path so stay on it.  At times it will be sunny and easy to follow, and some days it may feel dark and not so easy.  If you keep on keeping on, you will achieve your goal and arrive at your destination.

Today's message is simply

Follow MY path.
