How many times have you been to a party, social event or restaurant and felt that you were not up to the same level as all of the “beautiful people” there?
Maybe their suits or dresses were flashier.
Or they were slimmer.
Or their hair was less gray.
Or perhaps these people left their expensive, new Mercedes, BMWs and Cadillacs with the valet attendant while you “self parked” your tired, old car w-a-a-a-a-y in the back of the lot so that no one would notice.
Does this mean they are any better or successful than you are?
Of course not!
It all comes down to what I call – THE ATTITUDE OF YOUR MIND. The attitude of your mind affects many things including the expressions of your face, determines the actions you make, impacts your physical health and regulates your life.
At this point many of you, especially those who are "set" in your ways, may ask: "How can I change the attitude of my mind? How can I, after months and years of discouragement and of going through the motions, suddenly conceive and carry out a plan for doing something that will change my current situation and make my life more rewarding?”
The answer is that it can be done, and others just like you have done it.
Even if you consider yourself of AVERAGE ability, you can be successful, independent, free of worry, and be your own master, from this point forward, if you can commit to do these two things.
1) Remain forever dissatisfied with what you are doing and your situation today. In other words, shoot for the moon.
2) Develop in your mind a belief that the word IMPOSSIBLE was not intended for you. Build up in your mind the confidence that enables the mind to use its power.
Bette Reese once said, “If you think you are too small to make an impact, try going to bed with a mosquito in the room”.
So in conclusion, here’s the moral of my story to you…
Size DOES matter. It is up to you, to make an impact.
