"There is nothing noble in being superior to some other person. The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self."
- Hindu Proverb
This is what I am striving for...
I'm reading a chapter right now in a book that discusses taking 100% responsibilty for your life. The Success Principles by Jack Canfield. It's up to you to make things happen, no one else. You can't blame anyone or anything for your misfortunes, mistakes, etc. You make things happen. (event + response = outcome)
You can't go around blaming your outcomes on events. Your outcomes depend on your responses to events that happen. If you want something to change, you have to change the way you respond to events, stop blaming the event!
This chapter I am reading is the 1st principle of success. Trust me, I will post a blog about this when I'm done with that chapter...and probably a blog for every chapter I read. I have a feeling this book is going to help me in striving to be superior to my previous self!
That's all for now folks!!! :)

- “The moment inbetween what you once were, and who you are now becoming, is where the dance of life really takes place.” ~ Barbara De Angelis "Nothing happens without personal transformation." I decided one day I wanted to change. I wanted more from life. I realized that if you want more, YOU have to make it happen. You have to go to it and create it. The most powerful weapon against a mediocre life is practice. And just like a fire, the human spirit needs to be lit again each day.
