It's Your Choice...........

I receive a quote of the day e-mail everyday....to follow is the quote I received today. I liked it, so I am sharing-

"What do you first do when you learn to swim? You make
mistakes, do you not? And what happens? You make other
mistakes, and when you have made all the mistakes you possibly
can without drowning - and some of them many times over - what
do you find? That you can swim? Well - life is just the same
as learning to swim! Do not be afraid of making mistakes, for
there is no other way of learning how to live!" -- Alfred Adler


Sink or swim? That is what life is all about....making mistakes and learning from them. It's your choice whether you will sink or swim, no one else, but you, is responsible for the choices you make.

Yesterday, I made a visit to a local company as part of my job. In the lobby was the following poem:

The Bottom Line
Face It. Nobody owes you a living, what you achieve or fail to achieve in your lifetime is directly related to what you do or fail to do.

No one chooses his parents or childhood but you can choose your own direction.

Everyone has problems and obstacles to overcome, but that too is relative to each individual.

Excuses Are For Losers: those who take responsibility for their actions are the real winners in life. Winners meet life's challenge head on, knowing there are no guarantees, and give it all they've got.

Never think it's too late or too early to begin. Time plays no favorites and will pass whether you act or not.

Take Control Of Your Life!!! Dare to dream and take risks. If you aren't willing to work for your goals, don't expect others to....BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!!--author unknown


Life, it's your choice what you will do with yours! If you make a mistake, learn from it! You are the one who makes the choice to sink or swim! Rise above your past, rise above whatever is holding you back.....you have to do it for yourself, no one else will do it for you!
