I WILL LIVE AS IF I AM A GREAT PERSON -  I will live the rest of my life as if I am a great person. I will live as if my dreams are possible and work each day to make them happen.  It doesn’t matter if I am ten years old or ninety years old, I can still live as if I am great.  Any age is the right age to work on my dreams, and any place is the right place to make them come true. I don’t know how much time I have left, but in whatever times remains, I will live as if I am great.  I will be all that I can be and do all that I can do.  I will find an area of excellence that I can develop and give to the world.  Planet earth will be a better place because I became great in one area.  I can never fail as long as I develop the excellence that I have within. I will live the rest of my life as if I am a great person

I WILL MAKE A LIFE - I can make a living or make a life.  When I make a living I focus on survival.  When I make a life, I focus on my dreams. Seven principles help me make a life: 1. I live as if I am a great person.  I act as if my dreams are possible and work each day to make them happen. 2. I think and act my new life into existence.  I think new thoughts and take new actions that result in a new life. 3. I achieve excellence in at least one area of my life. 4. I have zero tolerance to negative thinking.  I don’t tolerate it in any form or to any degree. 5. I accept no limitations.  I don’t place limits on worthwhile objectives until I do my utmost to make them happen. 6. I never quit working on my dreams.  For as long as I am alive, I will work on my dreams. 7. I dare to call God my Father and build my life on the foundation of his love.

I WILL BUILD MY FUTURE THOUGHT BY THOUGHT - Life happens one thought at a time, either by default or by design. I design my life and build my future thought by thought.  Since every destination starts as a thought, I focus thoughts that take me where I want to go.  If there is any secret to building my future, it’s that I build it one thought at a time. Great lives are built on great thoughts that become the blueprint for life.  I make sure my thoughts are positive, empowering, resourceful, and unlimited. Life is what happens to you while you make other plans.  The Life Long Disoriented never make other plans, and so life just happens.  Life doesn’t just happen to me.  I plan my work and work my plan.  I build my future thought by thought.

I WILL EXAMINE MY LIMITING BELIEFS - Limiting thoughts are a disguised form of negation.  They are a way that I say no to life while pretending life is saying no to me.  Limitations are plausible self-deceptions.  They are prefabricated excuses for every failure to be what I want to be and to do what I want to do. No one blames me for being held back by all of the limitations that I have adopted.  Limitations are a subtle form of negativity that is socially acceptable. Inside my mind is a personalized collection of limiting beliefs that tell me everything I cannot do.  My limiting beliefs create confusion, and it’s easy to attribute my limitations to my world rather than to myself. There is no reason to place limits on any worthwhile objective before I try to make it happen.  Limiting beliefs are a choice, and I choose to not have any.

I WILL ACHIEVE EXCELLENCE IN AT LEAST ONE AREA OF MY LIFE - I have never seen any handicap that made excellence impossible.  Although excellence may be difficult, it’s always possible in at least one area of my life. I can work around my physical limitations using the power of my mind.  Even when my mind is trapped in a body full of limitations, it’s still free to pursue excellence.  As long as I am alive and have the ability to think, excellence is within my grasp. The only absolute limit I will ever face happens on the day I die.  Until then, I won’t place limits on worthwhile objectives before I try to make them happen.  I will live as if my dreams are possible.  I will act as if I cannot fail. I will achieve excellence in at least one area of my life.
