I was looking for inspiration for this next entry and it came as I was watching a movie on tv and in the background was the famous Doris Day song "Que Sera Sera".Part of the lyrics goes as follows
"...whatever will be, will be, the future's not our to see, que era sera..."
So two conflicting thoughts came to my mind in relation to "...the future's not ours to see..."
The Future Absolutely Must Be Yours to See.When making plans or setting goals for the future, such as start a business, go back to school, change careers, improve your fitness,
ANY goal whatsoever,
one of the most critical things you need to do is to START with THE END IN MIND.
In other words,
SEE The Future,
VISUALIZE yourself in the Future
In your mind's eye you MUST see yourself at that point in the future that you are looking to achieve.
Its the old BE-DO-HAVE theory.
BE what/ who/where you want to BE,
Do whatever you need to DO,
in order to HAVE whatever it is you wish to HAVE.
This is a critical excercise that will help build the passion and desire to accomplish.
VISUALIZE
BELIEVE
BE PASSIONATE
TAKE ACTION
The conflicting thought is exactly what the song says "...whatever will be..."
You see along the journey of accomplishment you will encounter bumps on the road, you will encounter "Nay Sayers", you will run into self doubt,
because "...the future is not ours to see...", who knows whar obstacles you may encounter.
So now what do you do...???
I challenge everyone to acknowledge this very simple, but TRUE fact;
The ONLY thing we can control is our thought.
It is what will sustain us through difficult times,
it is what will compell us to do, say, react to certain situations,
it is what will lead us through the future.
To quote W. Mitchell-
"Its Not What Happens To You Its What You Do About It".
THOUGHT-Its ALL you can CONTROL!!.
By the way I have yet to start my "Lessons I Learned..." Coming Soon.
