Don’t Neglect To Ask Yourself Difficult Questions



How often do you ask yourself if the disciplines you are engaging in are taking you in the direction you want to go?

It is essential to ask yourself this question not only at the beginning of the month and week, but also at the beginning of each day.  Are my plans today taking me in the direction of my goals?

The direction you are going determines your destination.

If you honestly look at the direction that you are going, will you end up at the destination that you desire?

This is no joke.  Don't think that you will even come close to a good destination if you are not headed in that direction.  You cannot go in the opposite direction or even just wander about and hope that you will end up where you want to be.

You need to regularly ask  yourself if you are doing the disciplines that will take you to your destination?  Are you accumulating the knowledge and experience to get you where you need to go?  Are you preparing yourself for the opportunities or challenges that will come your way on your journey?  Are you making yourself better?

Are you willing to put down on paper and evaluate where you are and where you want to be?

Complete the following statements and speak positive words.

•    My attitude is…  I am working on improving my attitude.
•    My health is…  I am working on improving my health.
•    My time management skills are…  I am working on improving my time management skills.
•    My work ethic is…  I am working on improving my work ethic.

No matter where you are on your journey of improving your personality, health or personal and professional skills, you can always improve.

If you are an ambitious person you know who you are and where you want to go.  

Do you lack ambition?  The only place you can find it is within you – in your thoughts, in your actions and in your motivation.  Your ambition expresses who you genuinely are.

Are you motivated to improve yourself and you situations?

Are you motivated to accept responsibility for where you are and where you want to go?

If you are, you can control your destiny.  You can do a 180 if you need to.  You can set your course and control where you go.  You can’t always control when you will get there, but you can control IF you get there.
