Use your Perception.

It is easy to point out what is "wrong," Ineffective or inefficient. It is much more challenging to use your perceptions to formulate a possible solution and an action plan. You may expend your time, efforts and energy on trying to stop that which you have deemed as "evil," but what are the end results? Does your return equal your investment?

If you are driving in traffic, engaged in a fearful chorus of "I hope I don't have an accident, I hope I don't have an accident, I hope I don't have an accident," the chances are pretty good that you are going to have an accident. You have energized and created that reality. Focus on what you WANT in your life. What is it that you are trying to create. What you focus on is what you get. Where is your attention?

Today, I challenge you to monitor your thoughts. How often do you find yourself engaged in negativity, focusing on what you DON'T WANT? When you catch yourself, take a moment to cancel your thought and replace it with another. Change your focus from what you don't want to what you are attempting to create. Note the difference in your energy.

Success or sabotage? Success will escape your attention if you are always focused on what is NOT working.

Is this going to be an incredible day?  Be clear in your intentions (what you want) and act accordingly to make it so!
