" Don't let the unexpected control your attitude. "

You wake up in the morning feeling great about your day. Then, you get in

your car and it won't start, or you spill coffee on your new skirt just

before a meeting, or the babysitter calls to say she'll be late.

You miss your bus, or your transporation comes late, or not come at all,

ug,we have all experienced that one point or another, remember no one is

perfect and we as humans make mistakes.

What about while walking in a hurry to our destination, the tip on our cane

decides to give out?hmmm..

And this is just the tip of the iceberg. One after another, unexpected

things happen until you want to scream!

Wait a minute; force yourself to relax and recognize the unexpected for what

it is - one of life's surprises. Take a deep breath and rationally consider

your options. Choose the most appropriate way to deal with the situation,

then move on.

When you slow down and take this calm approach, you're empowering yourself

with control. And, soon, your attitude will brighten back to the eagerness

and energy with which you originally greeted the dawn.

Think to yourself, " are my actions reflecting who I really am?,and most

importantly am I benefiting other's with my attitude? Or am I bringing

someone down?,and how does this help me? "

If you think you are beaten, you are;

If you think you dare not, you don't;

If you want to win but think you can't,

It's almost a cinch you won't.

If you think you'll lose, you're lost;

For out of the world we find

Success begins with a fellow's will;

It's all in a state of mind.

Life's battles don't always go

To the stronger and faster man,

But sooner or later the man who wins

It the man who thinks he can.

Stay blessed, and better yet why not bless someone today

Give a little more

In every situation there is the opportunity to give a little bit more. By

doing so, you can vastly improve the value created in that situation.

If you've already invested time and effort in something, consider giving

just a little bit more. Add to the momentum that's already there.

If you're already making the effort, giving a little bit more gives even

more value to the effort you've already made. It creates greater value from

the combined effort.

There are plenty of opportunities to give a little bit more. By doing so,

you can easily distinguish yourself and set yourself apart from the crowd.

Make the most of the momentum you've already established by extending the

momentum as long as you can. Once you're on a roll, give a little more, and

keep your efforts rolling strong.
