Have Confidence

In Your Own Abilities

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished about a year ago 1 min read
You Can Do Anything You Want To!

“Every time you are tempted

to react in the same old way,

ask yourself

if you want to be a prisoner of the past

or

a pioneer of the future”

For many of us,

it is just a ‘habit’

to react in a certain way,

and we often do this

without even thinking about it.

And ‘we’

often get the same result.

For us

to “Change” our Lives,

we need

to “Change” our way of thinking

and

to “Change” how we react

to certain ‘circumstances, things or people’.

Have you ever wanted

to react in a different way

-----

just to see what will happen?

For us to Progress in Life

and Move Forward to the Future,

we need to

CONTROL

how we react

so that we “know” what will happen.

We no longer want

to be a prisoner of our past

by always reacting in the same old way.

We want to

‘do something different’

so that we will

“SEE”

something different and new.

We need to be

Confident

and have

Faith

and

Belief in Ourselves.

Afterall,

we would only want

the Best for Ourselves.

We cannot change

how we reacted in the past,

but we CAN

Change and Control

how we react to ‘things, people and circumstances’

today and tomorrow.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

    Agreed! Perspective and how we react to a situation is everything.
