Millions struggle through life barely earning enough to survive. Many are trapped in a job they hate, but are making just enough that they think they can't afford to start at the bottom in something else. They go through the motions at work, spend a frustrating time stuck in traffic getting home, and are too exhausted to have a pleasant conversation with their family.
If you are one of them, enlarge your vision to see what's holding you back. The very fact that you believe you are never going to have a better life is keeping you from advancing. You are determining your future by your attitude. You are cementing yourself in the rut you are in.
Your major thoughts determine your future. If you are always thinking of your failures, you will never do any better. Learn the power of your thoughts. Thoughts determine actions or lack of them. If you think, you will never do any better you won't. If you don't think you can do it, you will fail to try.
Enlarge your vision to see that you can do what you set your mind to. You cannot improve your lot in life by tolerating what you despise. You have to have a dream of a better life. Everyone has things they love to do and have a talent for. Make a plan to take advantage of yours. You will never be any more than mediocre if you are not motivated by your passion. Decide what you want to do, and set a goal to do it.
You can't afford the luxury of a negative thought. Negative thoughts are not only unproductive; they disrupt any progress you are making. Thoughts of improving your situation will be stopped dead in their tracks by doubts. Learn to turn off any negative thought that pops in your mind. Dwell on the positive instead.
There is also power in your words. Remove negative comments like "I can't, I'm not good enough, and I will never do any better," from your vocabulary. When you think something negative and say it out loud, your subconscious mind will act on it and make it come true. Practice thinking and saying positive things out loud every day so that you can convince your subconscious that is who you are, and that is what you will become.
Your Creator designed you for success. You don't have to be stuck in a position that leaves you unfulfilled. You will succeed at the level of your expectancy. If you expect little success, that's what you will get.
Expect to have good health. Don't dwell on what's wrong with you but what's right with you. Expect to work hard and be successful. Don't get upset by setbacks. Remember that success is the result of overcoming difficulties. If you are in a field, you have a talent for, they are up your ally. Solve enough problems and you will be successful. The bigger the problems you solve, the more money you can make. Don't hate problems. They are your tickets to success. Learn to be an authority on problem solving.
