![]() Monday, June 30, 2003 Each day begins a new! By Josh Hinds (c) No matter what happened yesterday, no matter how bad it may have been, does it have to reach into this day -- provided you are willing to fight tooth and nail against it doing so. Remind yourself of this until the point that you know it to be an absolute truth. The reality is that events that happened in the past are just that, and try as we might there is no way we are going to be able to magically take them back... The good news is that it is from this very thinking that we can find the courage to move on to new and exciting opportunities in our lives. New ideas and ventures are always lurking just around the corner waiting for us to either jump on board or let them pass. The choice is ours and the future is ours. I hope that you will join me in making the decision to enjoy every step of your journey. It's not always going to be easy, but it is always worth it. You're worth it! ...

Believe me this is good for us! However, I think what's equally important is the amount of positive's that we send to our younger generation. I am certain I don't have to convince you of the positive results you we receive when we "flood" our minds with a self-improvement book or tape. It really can change our outlook on things. The results that we get are the same that our youth will receive as well. Why don't they take advantage of such resources you ask? It's fairly simple really. Their peer groups as a whole don't know about them. Thus our teens aren't taking advantage of them. A lot of folks out there are cutting our teens short! As such they're turning towards things that in the long run don't lead to fulfillment. This is something I feel pretty strongly about (most likely because it wasn't to long ago that I was still a teen). With this said now the question is what can we do about it? First we have to realize that every one of us was at one time or another in the same boat! We were all teens. Now ask yourself who was there for you when you needed someone to encourage you? Look for a young adult that you can reach out to and encourage. Make yourself a part of that person's testimonial! In addition to helping this person to realize their gifts you'll find extreme personal rewards as you see this person live an enriched life! Life in it's simplest form is really about helping others. As Mr. Zig Ziglar says, "You can have everything in life you want if you'll only help enough others get what they want". Now's the time to start my friend. Use your personal testimonial to make a positive impact in another's life. When you do only ask for one thing in return. Make sure that when someone comes along in their life that they do the same. Because together we can change the world -- one person at a time...

The book offers an intriguing look into the minds of those that have attained over one million dollars in net worth (there's far more to it then this, but I won't get that in depth for the purposes of this commentary)... What's interesting is that while the people surveyed all tended to come from varying backgrounds, many of them implemented similar philosophies with regards to creating monetary successes in their lives. I found the following particularly interesting in illustrating the point that these people do not tend to leave things to chance. Rather they chose to formulate their own particular plan in order to achieve what they wanted to manifest in their lives. Another interesting thing is that the book states that the higher a person's net worth was on the list, the less likely that person was to ever play the lottery. Now please don't misunderstand me here, I am not picking on anyone that plays the lottery. I am simply making a point that the people featured in the book tended to be those who took the time to develop a more selective plan for where they wanted to end up with regards to their monetary goals -- rather than simply leaving it to chance. And that my friend is something worth thinking about... Your friend in cyberspace, Josh Hinds :-) posted by Josh Hinds | Permalink |
