I can

I stop waiting for someone else to do it for me.

I stand up and do what needs to be done.

Yes, I’ll make some mistakes. Yes, I’ll fail. But I’ll also succeed.

In the end, it’s all up to who will take action and who will not.

I know there are a lot of people that are waiting and things come their way. But it’s just temporary. What you get without any effort will never last.

Somebody

I don’t want to be anybody. I want to be somebody.

I do my best every day.

I don’t want to be average. I want to be my best.

I can do it.

This is my best day ever!

Leader

A leader leads by example.

Your worth is not what you got, it’s who you are. You become with your actions.

Be the leader you want to meet.

I’m the leader that I want to be.

I don’t race with anyone else. I race with me.

Day after day, I do my best to become better.

No Doubt

I believe in myself. I don’t let anyone’s doubt become mine.

I understand that it’s easy to let the doubt of others become mine.

Too many people think they doing something good when they bring you down. They think that they help you save yourself from arms. But in reality, they only keep you from becoming better and doing so become better than them.

It’s ok to let others say whatever they want. You don’t need to reply to everything.

My inside talk, I’m the only one who ears it.

Find a way

I believe in my power to create my dream.

I know I will make mistakes. I know I will find myself in a difficult situation from time to time. But I also know that I will not give up. I will work hard and find a way.

I will not let others bring me down. I can understand that most will not see what I see in my future. I’m the only one who can really see it and believe in it.

I’m great and I know that I can do great things.

Step

— To feel the power of this text, place yourself in the “I” 🙂 —

I take it one step at a time.

I have to do it every day and keep doing it.

There’s no good way to do it fast.

I have to learn to celebrate every small victory.

The real value of my work is in me. I can feel good about it.

Lazy

All the good reasons in the world will not make me less lazy.

I can’t lie to myself. I’ll always be the one who knows that I can do better.

I can do better. I’m not lazy.

Every day I learn a little more.

I know I can’t know it all, but I can learn a little more every day.

Point of view

Two people listening to the same documentary could end up learning different things.

Why this is happening? Why do they get something different from the same source?

We learn what we can learn. This means, that we learn what we are ready to learn.

We can’t learn something that we’re not ready to take in.

That’s also the reason why two-person living the same tragedy will remember different things from the experience. It’s the same event but presented from the perspective of two different people.

“Reality simply consists of different points of view.”

Margaret Atwood

Respect the opinion of others. They don’t have your point of view and you don’t have theirs.

“Einstein, in the special theory of relativity, proved that different observers, in different states of motion, see different realities.”

Leonard Susskind

The same person reading the same book a second time. That person will learn new things.

Find the books that inspire you and read them once a year.

Fight

I Fight the powerful energy inside of me that is making me quit.

I choose to stand up and do what I know I should do.

I cannot lie to myself. I always know it.

I will keep going on. I’ll learn from my mistake and I will get better at it.

I understand that I can’t stay there and wait for someone else to do it for me.

I have to take action now.

Start

by Serge ‘Mage’ Cote
— To feel the power of this text, place yourself in the “I” 🙂 —

I can start now.

I don’t need to wait.

I can find a way to take a step forward.

It doesn’t need to be very good. I can get better as I keep doing it.

I can do something now.

I don’t wait. I start now.

Things will be all right.
