I Will Learn

I'm independent of good or bad opinions of others.

success

If I feel depressed, I will learn to cheer up.
If I feel sad, I will learn to laugh.
If I feel ill, I will learn to be healthy.
If I feel fear, I will learn to plunge ahead.
If I feel inferior, I will learn to look up to myself.
If I feel uncertain, I will learn to raise my voice.
If I feel poverty, I will learn to think of wealth to come.
If I feel incompetent, I will learn to think of my past success.
If I feel insignificant, I will learn to remember my goals.
I will learn to be the master of my emotions.
I will learn to change.

Limitations

The most successful people have reached the top not because they are free of limitations, but because each day, each moment, they act in spite of their limitations. We are blessed with virtually unlimited possibilities, and we must pursue those possibilities within the very real confines of our own limitations. Every person who has ever lived has struggled against their own set of limitations.


What are your limitations? Do you see them as an excuse for defeat, as a reason to give up? The limitations you face are not there to stop you, but rather to challenge and ultimately to support you. Limitations provide a frame of reference, something to push against, a way to grow.


Everything you have ever accomplished, has been done in spite of your limitations. You've proven, over and over again, that you can overcome your own unique challenges. Refuse to let your limitations stand in the way of your possibilities.

"Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do."
