Improve Your Mind

In order to achieve success, you must be willing to take 100% responsibility for your life. That means no more blaming others for your failures, or successes. If you want to create success in this life, you must take full responsibility for everything that you experience. You must realize that it is you who chose to be:

• Overweight
• Unsuccessful
• Rude
• Miserable
  

It is also you who chose:

• Your job
• Your relationship
  
• Your current financial situation
• Your happiness
• Not to say NO
• To stick with your job
• To not ask for what you want

Now, you might think that I was pretty rude to say all that mean stuff about you when I don't even know you, right? Well, no I don't know if you will apply to all of those things, all I know is that if you do apply to any of those points above, it is your fault. You are the one who allowed them and you are the only one who can change them.
In Jake Canfields' The Success Principles, he talked about this one equation that was taught to him years ago. It goes E + R = O, Event + Response = Outcome. Since you can't control the event (because it already happened) you must focus on changing your response. The response is the only thing that you can control. To put it more simply, the only two things that you can control in your whole life are your thoughts (and therefore, your feelings) and your actions. Those are the only two things that you can control. The day that you change your responses to events is the day that your life will get better.

Every part of your life right now is exactly how you made it. You might have made it intentionally or not, but either way your life is because of you. It is a reflection of all of your past thoughts and actions.

• You're the one who ate the junk food
• You're the one who did not talk to your boss
• You're the one who kept silent after finding lipstick in his car

The only way to change your life is to step out of your comfort zone. You need to do things... even if they are hard.

Hard. What is hard? If you think about it, not much is really hard. It's just doing something that you are not use to, thats why you see it as.. hard. Once you begin to transform your thoughts and actions, you will realize that changing habits only seemed hard.

Now that you realize that your life is 100% your fault or achievement, you have the power to change it! Now go out there and mold your life to your choosing.....NOW.
