Refuse to accept anything less than the best you deserve

Every day I meet people who are dissatisfied with some aspect of their life, usually financial, sometimes emotional or spiritual. I like this, because it means they are not willing to simply roll over and take whatever ill fortune comes their way, they want to fight back and make their life better. My frustration stems from how few of them actually follow through on their plans.

In the past six months Kathy and I have changed our lives completely. Yes, it has taken a lot of effort, most of which was personal. See, we had to change ourselves before we could do anything else, and while that process is ongoing and never-ending, just undertaking to improve yourself creates its own energy. An inertia builds up in your life for the positive that allows you to do more than you ever thought possible.

We have discovered this, but unfortunately, so many others will not even undertake the journey of discovery. All we can do is concentrate on those who will, and hope the others will join us. Yes, we have discovered something that works for us, something that has revolutionized our lives, but whether others join us or find their own path, we both just wish more people would try to be happy. We are no different than anyone else, we are constantly battling the fear of failure that accompanies any new endeavor, but it is far better to try and to fail than to never try at all.
