Guest guest Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 You’ll Wonder Why You Didn’t Do this Sooner by Jane “Your appointment is confirmed.†You set appointments all the time, with doctors, dentists, accountants, contractors and hair salons. More often than not the appointments you set actually take place. Once in a while you have to cancel an appointment, but that’s okay, because you reschedule it and place the new date and time on your calendar. There’s one person, though, that you might never think to set an appointment with. That person is you! Why not schedule an appointment with yourself and write it on your calendar? Schedule some time to do something fun with yourself. Make it a definite date. When the time comes, keep the appointment, just as you would any other. After a few appointments with the all-important you, you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner. When you make use of your strength, it does not get used up... It grows.|When you give your love to others, it does not diminish the love you have.. It deepens and enriches that love. When you teach what you know, it does not take knowledge away from you...It expands and broadens your knowledge. When you offer kindness, you end up with even more. When you make use of discipline, your discipline grows ever stronger. The more you live with integrity, the more integrity you'll have. The more you speak the truth, the more real truth you'll discover. The truly valuable things in life are easy to recognize, for they're the things that never get used up. Indeed, the truly valuable things become more plentiful each and every time they're used. Get stronger When the difficulties come, and pile so high on top of one another that you can’t see the way forward, you have a choice. You can choose to give up, or you can choose to get stronger. You can choose to bury your dreams under impenetrable layers of worry and fear. Or you can choose to make those dreams even more magnificent and compelling so that you cannot resist being pulled forward by them. You can choose to feel sorry for yourself, or you can choose to feel the power of your true purpose. You can look for who is to blame, or you can look for ways to take full responsibility for the situation. This is your life, and even the difficult stretches are very much worth living. In fact, it is during the challenging times that you build new capacity for greater richness. When there is no obvious reason to be positive, choose to be more positive than ever before. Instead of being overwhelmed by the problems, choose to be energized by the positive possibilities hidden within them. Feel the genuine confidence that comes from knowing you always have a choice. And choose to live the positive value in whatever life may send.
