Robert Collier said, “If you don’t make things happen then things will happen to you.” You have what it takes to make things happen for you, not to you. It is important to make things happen, to make your dreams come true, to check where you are. To do that, you need to be honest with yourself. You need to tell yourself what you need to hear. If not, you will never grow.

“If you believe you can make things happen for you, you can.”

When it comes to your growth, you have what it takes to create the life you want for yourself. You can create your life. All you need to do is to tell yourself the truth. Don’t lie about where you are right now. Jim Stovall says, “The most destructive lies we ever tell are those we tell ourselves.” We lie to ourselves to cover our troubles. If you want to get to the next level, you must stop telling yourself lies. If you don’t stop, you will remain where you are.

To leave where you are, you must make things happen for you, not to you. You have what it takes to do it. You have what it takes to change your life. You are stronger, smarter, better than you think you are. All you need to make things happen for you is to determine where you want to go, what you want, and how to make things happen. And don’t forget to assess where you are right now. It is important. Because if you want to know yourself, you must have the courage to question yourself.

The right questions will give you the right answers. To face yourself, you must first believe that you can win. You must believe that you have what it takes to take the first step. It is the first step that separates the doers from the talkers. It is the first step that separates successful people from unsuccessful people. It is the first step that separates winners from losers. So if you want to make things happen for you, you must learn the act of taking the first step. It matters. Are you ready to take the first step?

Don’t Wait For Other People To Motivate You. Here Is Why

Do you know that you can motivate yourself? Do you know that no one can motivate you? If you are waiting for someone to motivate you, you are going to wait forever. If you are waiting for someone to give you what you want, you will never get what you want.

The best way to get what you want is to know what you want. If you don’t know what you want, you can’t move yourself to get it. Don’t wait for someone to help you get what you want. You can get it yourself. You are stronger than you think. You are smarter than you think. Don’t bring yourself down. Don’t settle for less than you can get. If you do that, you are reducing your success.

You are the only person who can motivate you to get more done in your life. You have got to believe in yourself.

Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Our chief want in life is somebody who shall make us do what we can.” Yes, we need people to help us get what we want. But what if they are not there? What if no one is ready and willing to help us? What would you do? Are you going to be waiting for someone who is not at home? Don’t do that. If no one is there to help you, help yourself. If you push yourself, you can do more for yourself. If you do more than you have always done, you will get more than you have always attracted to yourself. The question is: Are you ready to do a little more than you have done before? If you are ready, you can do more for yourself.
