Grab The Wheel & Charter Your Course!

"If you only do what you know you can do- you never do very much."

-Thomas Krause

As a businesswoman with a big heart, part of my job is to motivate those I come in contact with.  Every week at my job, I post a quote that serves this purpose.  When I posted this particular quote months ago, it stuck with me.  How often do we push our own boundaries?  How much do we really get done as opposed to what we planned to do?  If you think back to a recent goal you set for yourself and the steps you took to get there, did you do your best or did you do just enough?  This week is all about creating your success in every way!  Setting your goals, pushing your limits and realizing that you can do it all!  Today’s challenge is to set your coordinates and charter your own course!

Are you grabbing control of your proverbial wheel or are you content on cruise control?  Doing what we know how to do in life comes naturally for many of us, but often it is not enough.  There is always room for improvement and sometimes it takes a substantial amount of energy, will and drive to get there.  Living up to your full potential starts when you realize YOUR contribution to your success.  If you are waiting for someone else to come along and guide you, there is no telling where you could end up!  Despite how terrifying it may be to take action, there is an exhilaration that comes from being in control of your destiny.  With a sound mind, good health, positive family and friends, and endless talents worth discovering, I am ready to regain my control!  How about you?!

It can be easy to set the cruise and roll with it!  No thought, no rush to stop anywhere, and no pressure to be any faster or slower.  The thought of that mentality (outside of a long road trip!) is ridiculous!  Life isn't about coasting.  It's about steering, navigating, charting your course, losing your way, and discovering different stops in which you want to pick up a souvenir or learn about a new place.  That's the type of journey I want to take in this lifetime.  So take a minute and really think...

Are you content with opportunities, people, LIFE passing you by while you sit back on cruise?

OR

Are you ready to lightly tap the brakes, stop cruising, and sit up and pay attention to where you are going and how fast you want to get there?

The choice is yours!  Until next time my loves!
