"Six simple questions that will always keep you from getting into any situation that may be over your head."
Do you remember the last time you were presented an opportunity? What was your first thought? Did you think it was possible for you or impossible?
As you aspire to succeed in any endeavor, you must constantly evaluate what can and cannot be done under the circumstances you find yourself and the resources you have available.
Here are six questions to help you evaluate any opportunity you are considering:
- what am I really trying to accomplish?
- why do I think what I want is possible?
- is there anything that makes me think it is impossible?
- what do I stand to gain or lose by going forward with this opportunity?
- will my health have an influence on, or be affected by, the outcome?
- would my time, money and energy be better utilized elsewhere?
Your life’s journey will not always take you where you think it will. The road you travel, and the destinations you reach are determined by the choices you make. You must learn to accept this reality and always be ready and willing to adapt to situations that arise.
You may not achieve as much success as you could because of doing too little. On the other hand, you may not achieve success because you are trying to do too much. Always keep in mind the above questions when evaluating your course.
Try changing "Im-possible" to "I'm possible" by moving the hyphen (-) and placing it vertically between the I and the M. Do you see it? Do you believe it?

Can We Count On You?
"More than 100,000,000 people, around the world, have been motivated and influenced by this message since the turn of the century."
Have you read the fascinating short story "A Message to Garcia"? If not, I suggest you read it HERE. This short story has taught millions of people some very important values.
Unlike Rowan in the story, the average modern man is unable or unwilling to concentrate on one thing and complete it. How sad!
In our world there is a constant "weeding-out" process going on. No matter if times are good or bad, both employers and customers continually perform a sorting process. The incompetent employees and unworthy retail establishments go by the way side. In our world it is "the survival of the fittest."
Those people who can recognize the goal, and take individual action toward achieving it, are the most valuable assets to families, businesses, customers, and organizations.
Your marketplace, whether it be an employer or customer, is looking for someone who is resourceful, responsible, and reliable. If you have not already, make the decision that you will be a person who can carry a message to Garcia.
Can we count on you?

How to Master the Art of Living
"We have learned to fly the air like birds and swim the sea like fish, but we have not learned the simple art of living together as brothers." ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
Do you wake up in the morning with a sense of excitement about the possibilities and looking forward to your tasks, new experiences, interactions, and discoveries which will unfold during your day? If so, then you are young no matter what your actual age. What a blessing to have the continually fresh wonder and suspense of an exciting life.
The secret to mastering the art of living the life you really want is to make, and take, the time to really be present in each moment. Stated another way, to live every moment, you must first decide to make, and take, the time to do it.
Unfortunately, we seem to believe the idea, or in the lifestyle, that everyone must constantly be doing something. What good is it to rush through our lives if we cannot enjoy living as we go?
To really live, set aside time to be with family and friends. We have been created as social beings and are placed on Earth to be of service and support to others.
Mark Twain reminds us that good books and good friends make up the ideal life. What are you reading and whom are you spending time with?
Life is a great gift you have been given, and it’s meant to be enjoyed. If you learn to really enjoy life you will have mastered the art of living.
