“So, wake me up when it’s all over. When I’m wiser and I’m older. All time I was finding myself and I didn’t know I was lost.” ~ Avicii

The Power of the Mind

“You’re never going to amount to much.” “You’re not smart, enough.” “You can’t do what other people can do easily.” “No one is going to listen to you.” “Who do you think you are?” “You are dreaming if you think that you are going to succeed.” These negative comments and thoughts have directed my decisions and have led me to miss many opportunities and challenges that I have been presented with over the years. Sometimes I am able to fight pass them and sometimes they hold me back. However, I am certain with all my being that I am not these negative thoughts. If I can practice not giving them time to simmer in my head, I will go far. Far in my self-perception, far in my marriage, far in my relationships with my boys, far in my relationships with my family and friends, and for in my relationships with my clients and with you.

“You are going to succeed your wildest expectations.” You are more than capable and qualified.” “There are things you can do easily that others can’t.” “You are not responsible to worry about what others do.” “You are responsible for sharing the message you have for others.” “You are Lindsay Guichard and you are one of a kind.” This week’s speaker, Carrie Green says, “Success is yours for the taking.” It doesn’t discriminate, it is not just for a select few. I will succeed, and you can too!

What negative thoughts have you been carrying around with you most of your life? What challenges or missed opportunities have you experienced by listening to these negative thoughts? What are the positive thoughts that you can start filling your mind with? When the next challenge comes be ready to just do it. No more letting these negative thoughts hold you back. You are the only you on this planet. We get one life. Live it well!
