Limitless possibilities exist in your life. You truly have no limits except those you put on yourself.

Success in Life
Do you know what a successful life looks like? Not for me or someone else, but for you. What does a good life look like for you? Each of us is different. We must each determine what we want in life in order to find true happiness. Although we might share some ideas with others, our life is and should always be unique.
Life is a Choice
Do you say or think things like this:
I hate getting up in the cold or dark!
I can’t stand (fill in the blank)
I hate my neighbor!
I hate my job!
Determine Your Destiny
Attitude Determines Destiny is not only the title of my book, but it’s reality! Attitude is everything! If we want to make positive changes, we must take action. Some advice will not make sense at first or may not seem to bear fruit for a long time, but if we want change, we will follow it anyway. Consider the following example…
Inspiration and Self Confidence
Insecurity is the opposite of inspiration and certainly doesn’t lead to much self-confidence. If we are insecure, we doubt our self worth or our abilities, and we will lack confidence to act on what’s inside us. Insecurity causes people to look to things outside themselves to give their lives meaning and purpose. Unfortunately…
Goals and Effort
Goals are an important part of effort. They will determine what effort we give, when we give it, and how we give it. Our effort is much more effective if we focus it o a single goal or a small group of goals.
Let’s look at the sun’s rays as an example.
Using Your Potential
Why is it that some people apply so much effort to what they do?I visited the Buddy Holly museum in Lubbuck, Texas and was amazed by how much influence he had on other performers. Although you may not know who Buddy Holly was, you probably have seen and heard the results of his influence.
Speaking on Achieving Your Potential
Do you have any idea what your potential might be?
I would say that no one knows his or her true potential because it’s limitless. It’s fun to learn about our potential. This is one of the reasons why I recommend that we set goals. Our periodic review of our goals will show us our progress toward realizing our potential.
Speaking on Faith
One of the greatest motivators in my life has been faith that what I’m doing is God’s will for me.
This may sound strange to you, but when I was a child of about five, God spoke to me and told me that I was to be a teacher. As an Adult, when I was a professor, every day that I went into class, I remembered that this was what God wanted me to do.
Self Motivation
One of the most important ways to achieve success and happiness is through self-motivation. No one can run your life for you even though some may try. When you were a child, your parents and teachers guided your life. But upon leaving school you must manage your own life.
