1. TAKE RESPONSIBILITY
Your life is all up to you! The sooner you believe and accept that, the better. Stop leaving important decisions up to others. Stop trying to blame others for what goes wrong (or what doesn't go at all). Take responsibility for your life and you take the first steps to really enjoying the rest of it!
2. TAKE A LEAP
No one can predict the future, but almost everyone spends too much time thinking about the past and how things they did "way back when" may affect things they want to do today.
The past is past, the future is out there. But right now, stop worrying about every little thing and take a leap of faith! Do the things you really want to do. Take a chance that your dreams aren't just dreams. Take a chance on yourself. Life rewards those who act, so act!
3. TAKE A STAND
Remember: you are the spokesperson for your life!
Stop waffling. Make a decision -- you know you want to. Most of the time you'll be right, and those few times that you're wrong will be the points when you learn the most.
Draw a line. Share your opinions. Speak up!
4. TAKE YOUR TIME
Everything doesn't have to be done today. This hour. This minute. Right now!
And just because none of us knows how much time we have doesn't mean we should rush, rush, rush through our days on a senseless quest of quantity over quality. Slow down. You can't smell the flowers if you can't see 'em.
5. TAKE STOCK
When things go wrong it's oh-so-easy to compile a list of problems and complaints that we're dealing with. What we need to do is take a look at all of the positive things that we have in our lives and available to us.
Each of us has more than we think we have, only because we haven't thought that much about it.
So think about it.
6. TAKE A BOW
We spend so much time trying accomplish so much -- and so little time appreciating what we've done. Take credit for your accomplishments. Be proud of what you've achieved....
After all, success is a good thing!
