[AffirmationstoDe-Stress] MORNING COFFEE

Your life will always be, to a large extent, what you make it." Your life is yours. You own it, and what you make of it is purely up to you. Others may support you in your aspirations, but, in the end, it's your creation. You are your one and only boss, and with that awareness comes a special responsibility. Once you accept this responsibility and stop waiting around for others to make you happy, you will become unstoppable. There will be no denying you. Your life will change, all because of you. So, turn on the green light and go! ©Jane Powell     "Commitment is a decision" Commitment is not just a simple act of wishing for something. Commitment is a decision to do whatever it takes. You may wish to be in awesome shape. But, you won't succeed until you decide to put down the chocolates, get off the couch, and start exercising, regularly! Yes, this is hard to hear, but that's what commitment is all about – deciding to put in the sweat and effort and sacrifice, to achieve the goals you hold dear. The sweat and effort may come from your head, as in commitment to your workplace or achieving your goals. It may come from your heart, as in commitment to a relationship or your children. But, wherever it comes from, it requires a decision not only to start, but persevere. Remember, the rewards you seek are priceless, and worth every moment of dedicated effort.     Get on with living Avoid trouble, but not so much that you avoid life. Anticipate possible problems, but don't obsess over them so much that you miss the opportunities. When you set out on an ambitious path, there are plenty of things that might go wrong. Prepare yourself to deal with those possible pitfalls, but don't allow them to become excuses even before they become reality. Don't let yourself be stopped by what might not even happen. Rather, let yourself be pushed forward by the positive value of what you intend to achieve, to experience, to create. Put your time and effort into growing stronger, more capable, more experienced and effective. Focus your thoughts not on worrying about what might stand in your way, but on visualizing where you desire to go. You've already made your way through every challenge to date. You have every reason to be confident that you can successfully deal with whatever life sends your way. There are plenty of reasons and ways to be careful, yet there's no reason to constantly live in fear. Go ahead and get on with living a positive, meaningful life. Ralph Marston
