“It’s only getting worse.”
Do you believe that? Have you convinced yourself that time is running out, and because we’ve been going through some tough economic times; or because your job is not going so well; or because you’re feeling like your life plan isn’t really working out like you’d hoped; that perhaps your hourglass is slowly running out of sand?
Soon it’s going to run out. What does that mean for you?
Nothing Left
I know when I get down on myself, for whatever reason, I can easily justify diving into the self-pity pool. Sometimes it really is justified…but usually I’m just being lame. Do you ever find yourself slipping down the self-pity slope? We make the decision to feel this way when we don’t have confidence that other options exist.
A little self confidence can go a long way.
Second Chances
Take a moment and reflect on the last time someone gave you a second chance. Maybe you missed a deadline; or maybe you were inadvertently rude to a colleague; or maybe you just made a mistake. Whatever the story, think about how relieved you felt when you started over with that second chance.A second chance can go a long way.
How About You
Do you know the best thing about an hourglass? When all of the sand runs out, you get to flip it over and have a brand new start. I think you should reach for that hourglass right now…because brand new starts can go a real, long way.
I’d love to hear from you.
No Excuses.
