Daily Motivation - Success is a Choice

 

Success is only a thought away. Why not change your thoughts, and choose success this instant? There is no need to wait until Monday to make a “fresh start”; Saturday and Sunday hold just as much promise as do any other day of the week.

If you have fallen off track in your weight loss and exercise program, why wait until Monday to start again? It is always your choice, and you can choose to go for success today.

It truly only takes only a change of mind to change your entire outlook. If you have fallen down, you can pick yourself up and keep on going (I have had to pick myself back up many times, you aren’t alone!). At this very moment you can choose to put the past behind you, and begin walking towards your healthy goals.

Being Successful Is A Choice You Make
©2006 by Max Steingart

Success or failure?
It’s always your choice.
You alone have the responsibility to shape your life.

Once you understand this,
nothing and no one can deny you success.
There’s really no one to stop you but yourself.

More powerful than all the success slogans ever written
is the realization that everyone has but one boss.
That boss is you.

Your life will always be to a large extent what you make of it.
No one can cheat you out of ultimate success but you.

You can be successful if you want to be successful.

    I often heard that people CHOOSE to be successful, or they choose not to be, it’s really a matter of how you set your mind.

    Hi, thanks for your comment now g net!

    Yes, I agree, because everything in life begins in your thoughts. You can choose success or you can choose failure.

    There is a tricky part to this though, in that you may think you are choosing success, you want success, but if you have negative, limiting, unconscious beliefs that contradict your positive, conscious thoughts, you won’t get very far.

    For example, if you have an unconscious belief that “you don’t deserve good in your life”, then until you change that core belief, you will continue to struggle to achieve success because success = good.

    You can bring those unconscious thoughts into the light of day by writing affirmations. Check out my post How To Use Your Brain to Lose Weight for more on this topic. :)

    You got to have motivation to start losing weight.

    I sit all day in front of my PC promising to myself that tomorrow I will start running and make more exercise, but I always think that it’s best to start jogging the next Monday :). The right Monday never comes although…

    Hi, thanks for your comments!

    You’re so right, that ethereal Monday never really comes. Why not start small and just do a little bit today? Actually, I’d recommend walking instead of running, but if you love running then by all means, go for it! :)
