It is all about practicing! That which you most want to do and be!
Practicing!
You can practice being successful, getting better and better at a thing or you can practice not doing much of anything at all, because in the end it is about practicing, repeating, improving upon, strengthening, over and over until it becomes a habit.
It doesn’t happen any other way.
So practice … believe in your self … set your goals and then practice!
See yourself being successful! And don’t under any circumstances let anyone else stop you! Not ever!
Begin today. Create your own habit of practicing success!
Thanks for the visit, hope your week is being good for you!
~ Penny

I think believing in yourself has to be first and foremost. I read something recently about a man who started writing and, when asked what he did, he did not refer to himself as a writer because he wasn’t published. He said that he has learned that if you don’t say your goals out loud to someone else, they probably won’t materialize. It comes down to believing you can do something and visualizing yourself in this role. Excellent post Penny.

I’ve quit a couple of times … drugs and smoking. I think they are the two things that you can win with quitting.
Great inspirational quotes which is exactly what I was saying on one of your other posts about you being inspiring.

Those things are okay to quit of course. Thanks Alastair!

Thank you for asking Alastair, life always has a few surprises so am coping with a few of those right now, but no worries!

Where would we be without life’s surprises? A lot happier sometimes … a lot more sullen others. Just remember … you have to experience bad times to make the good times so worth it. I hope these “surprises” turn into good ones.

I”m not sure a pinched nerve qualifies, I’ll have to think on that one a bit lol!

OUCH!!! I know how that feels … well .. sort of. Yeah, they are so much of the sullen side, more the painful part. I hope it eases for you soon

AnElephantCant claim to be successful
Although he still likes to put in some practice
But he tries to be nice
And offers this advice
Do not make a habit of sitting on a cactus

I wish I’d keep practicing, but I find other things to get in the way. The good thing is to start over each day and try again. I’m going to count that as practice, too. Thanks for the nudge.
