His Point of View

Every New Year we all hear (and read) everybody and their mama claim that “This is my year”… Hold up… It takes more than a proclamation to make things happen.   Some of you who know me may have seen me write something a little bit different at the start of 2009.  I said that 2010 is my year, and I am using 2009 to prepare for it.

In order to make major changes in your life it requires study, preparation, and most importantly action.  You can’t expect big things to happen in your life if you are not positioning yourself properly and creating a way for big things to happen.   So to all of you people who claim that every year will be “Your Year”  I say you need to make a plan today so that you can have control of your life in 2010 or maybe even 2011.  Pick up a book, educate yourself on a subject that you have little or no knowledge of.  Knowledge is power, the more you know the more options you have to make changes in your life.

The first step in making something happen is to commit to it.  The next requirement is to make a move toward making it happen.  Once you take that first step you will see new opportunities and possibilities which you would have never seen if you only dream.  When you make a move, if it is the right move, you will see things happen that will lead you on a path to success.  We can not be lazy or afraid if we want to move to a better place.  When you make a move or overcome your fear of the unknown, unpredictable things happen which will guide you on your road to success and you will be glad that you took the initiative to improve your own life.  I am not saying this road will always be easy, but in the long run it is best.  Successful people are those who recover from failure and try again, and again.  Even in the worst case scenario, if all goes completely wrong, you can ALWAYS go back to where you came from.  On the other hand, if you never leave where you are you will never get to a better place.
