Lock in the goodness

A new world arrived this morning. Walk out and discover what’s there.

Possibilities arise, linger for a while, then fade quickly away. Do the work and bring the best ones to life while they’re available.

Transform the massive potential value of this moment into enduring value that spawns even more. Lock in the goodness that exists by appreciating it, supporting it, and expanding on it.

Refuse to accept less from yourself than purposeful, disciplined behavior. Offer kindness not because it looks good but because it is good for everyone involved, especially you.

Gratefully take notice of patterns you may have previously ignored, denied, or been oblivious to. Recognize the opportunities embedded within them to do truly beneficial work.

A new world arrived this morning, and another is on the way. Make good use of each one as it comes.

Work with what you have

You can’t make everything perfect. No one else can make your life perfect.

But you can make the choice to live well despite the imperfections. Whatever your resources, whatever your shortcomings, many good situations and outcomes are possible.

Your world is as it is at this moment. Identify your opportunities and work with them.

No circumstance is one hundred percent negative or one hundred percent positive. There exist plenty of possibilities for improvement.

You’ll gain nothing by wishing the past had delivered you into a better situation. Instead, fully utilize the present by working to transport yourself into a future of your choosing.

Work with what you have and you’ll cause what you have to get better. Always, you can work with what you have, and that’s your best path to whatever outcome you desire.

Once you decide

Desire points you in a specific direction. That’s a start, but not enough.

There is a distinct, dynamic point when fulfillment begins. It comes at the moment you decide.

Once you decide, you begin to take action. Once you decide, the commitment is made and there’s no going back.

What you say, what you wish for, what you intend and plan to do, these things have their place. What you actually decide is what makes a real difference.

Decide, and you become consumed with what you’ve decided to do. Decide, and one action quickly follows another.

Get yourself to that critical point. Decide, and set the momentum of accomplishment in motion.

— Ralph Marston
