GO FORWARD FROM WHERE YOU ARE - LET THE PAST BE PAST

[CROWN COUNCIL]

 

It is interesting how important it is to go forward even in the face of challenges no matter how slightly.  This will make going forward even easier when the next challenge arises. And here are some things you can do to make that forward motion even more easy and automatic.

 

1.  Do what you agree to do when you say you will do it.  It is interesting to discover that being reliable isn’t a common every day characteristic.  When you prove yourself to be responsible, reliable and trustworthy, you become known as someone with outstanding character.

 

2. When you have established a reputation for being reliable, you will have an incentive to do the  things that enable you to keep that reputation.

 

3. Think ahead and govern your thoughts because thoughts determine actions.

 

4. Remember that we tend to search for things that reinforce that which we have come to believe.   When you catch yourself following this course, give yourself some validating space to be  sure you don’t get stuck on a belief that isn’t the best.

 

5. Keep in mind that challenges and even failures are learning experiences and opportunities for  growth.  You control the reaction to your experiences and none can take that prerogative  away from you.

 

6.  When you are feeling a little down, do something for someone else.   It will give you a lift.

 

With all this as reinforcement, you are bound to move forward from wherever you are.
