Ask yourself this question frequently: What is my purpose for living on this earthmy special
way of contributing value to my fellow human beings?
When you have a decision to make, look in all
directions and decide quickly on a course of action.
Then get busy. You might need to change directions at
some point, but the important thing is to make a choice
and begin moving.
When decisions are hard to make, seek help from someone
who has traveled that road before you. Somewhere there
is someone who has had to make the same decision or has
already solved the same problem you now face.
Look closely at your desires. Only you can make the
final decision on your priorities and how you spend
your time.
You can only do what you are able to do at any one
time. Rather than attempting more tasks than you can
complete, start with the most necessary and do fewer
tasks with excellence.
Remember that the path to your dream could take years to travel. However,
there will be unexpected shortcuts along the way. Carry
a "map" with you, a plan of your own design that will
guide you. Then redraw your plan when needed, and take
advantage of those unexpected shortcuts. Sometimes a
temporary barrier will actually give you an advantage
you were not expecting.
When an emergency situation crops up, look to see if it
is your responsibility. If there is something you can
do to assist another human being, then it is certainly
yours. Do what you are able to do in the best way you
can.
Most of all, never give up on your dreams. They are the
ultimate guiding light, the essence of who you are and
what you can accomplish with faith and perseverance.
Choose your directions wisely each day, enjoying all
the blessings along the way. Your destinations are
sure to reward you beyond expectation.
