I am often asked…

Who motivates the motivator?

Great question.

I am not naturally a positive person.

But I am a trained optimist.

Optimism is a skill. A muscle that needs work to develop.

I have to work extra hard to try and keep my mind in the right place.

This week I thought I would share one of my favorite affirmations from William Arthur Ward.

I encourage you to read, internalize, ponder, and share this affirmation every day this week…and beyond.

I promise it will make a difference.

And it’s best if you read it out loud. 🙂

A Winner's Blueprint for Achievement

BELIEVE while others are doubting.

PLAN while others are playing.

STUDY while others are sleeping.

DECIDE while others are delaying.

PREPARE while others are daydreaming.

BEGIN while others are procrastinating.

WORK while others are wishing.

SAVE while others are wasting.

LISTEN while others are talking.

SMILE while others are frowning.

COMMEND while others are criticizing.

PERSIST while others are quitting.
