You are never too small to make an impact!

How many times have you been to a party, social event or restaurant and felt that you were not up to the same level as all of the “beautiful people” there?
Maybe their suits or dresses were flashier.
Or they were slimmer.
Or their hair was less gray. (Or for you male readers, they had more hair than you!)
Or perhaps these people left their expensive, new Mercedes, BMWs and sports cars with the valet attendant while you “self parked” your tired, old automobile w-a-a-a-a-y in the back of the car park so that no one would notice it.
Does this mean they are any better or more successful than you are?
Of course not!
It all comes down to what I call – THE ATTITUDE OF YOUR MIND. The attitude of your mind affects many things including the expressions of your face, determines the actions you make, impacts your physical health and regulates your life.
At this point many of you, especially those who are “set” in your ways, may ask: “How can I change the attitude of my mind? How can I, after months and years of discouragement and of going through the motions, suddenly conceive and carry out a plan for doing something that will change my current situation and make my life more rewarding?”
The answer is that it can be done, and others just like you have done it.
Even if you consider yourself of AVERAGE ability, you can be successful, independent, free of worry, and be your own master, from this point forward, if you can commit to do these four things. Of course, it will take diligent and persistent practice for you to make these permanent and long-lasting positive habits. However, the rewards will be manifold!
1) Commit to remain forever dissatisfied with what you are doing and your situation today. Do not be like those who play the victim and blame others, the world and the universe for all of their woes. Take action toward what you want and spell out in detail when you want it.
2) When you have identified what you want to achieve, whether it be more love, better relationships and communication with others in your personal or professional life, a successful career, more wealth, better health or a full, rich life – always, always, always dream big and shoot for the moon. Remember, it is better to shoot for the moon and only reach the top of a mountain, than to shoot for the mountain top and wind up where you started.
3) Next, develop in your mind a belief that the word IMPOSSIBLE was not intended for you. A “can do” attitude will determine your altitude, every time.
4) Your final commitment is to build up in your mind the confidence that enables the mind to use its power. When you have confidence and the courage to step out of your comfort zone, you will always accomplish more in you life.
Author and poet, Bette Reese once said, “If you think you are too small to make an impact, try going to bed with a mosquito in the room”.
So in conclusion, here’s the moral of my story to you…
“You are never too small. It is up to you, to make an impact.”
