EVERY DAY STUFF

Sunday Mar. 11, 2018

Day-to-day stuff called ‘routine’ or ‘just another day’ – those feelings and comments are pretty commonplace. Understanding how ubiquitous these feeling are doesn’t make them good – just makes them widespread. But what if we could embark on each day, each morning, with refreshed attitudes – not of ‘change everything in one day’, but with a plan to ‘change our entire life to look and feel like the life we want to own’?

We’ve all heard those cliché questions like: ‘If you knew you couldn’t fail, what would you like to be doing?’

There’s no such thing as failing completely – anymore than such a thing a succeeding completely. There is ‘succeeding a little bit more’ but it doesn’t show up because of our DNA, the corner we are standing on or dumb luck. It barely shows up a little bit at a time because we do something proactive and positive and change-making a little bit at a time. Every day. Every single day.

That’s all it takes – relentless persistent confident effort.  Every day.
