Experience All Of Life

"Let others lead small lives, but not you. Let others argue over small things, but not you. Let others cry over small hurts, but not you. Let others leave their future in someone else's hands, but not you."
Jim Rohn

We all go through ups and downs in life, the key to living an extraordinary life is realizing this fact and accepting it. Each and every experience you go through whether good or bad has the potential for you to learn something. Therefore if you learn something from every experience you will always continue to grow as a person, and the more successful you will become. The people who choose not to learn from mistakes or accomplishments never get anywhere. Life controls them instead of them controlling their life.

We all make our own choices, you decide whether or not you want to make all your dreams come true. Stop letting life control you, and promise yourself to never give up on your dreams and goals. You don't need to promise me, or the world, but you need to promise yourself. You have one life to live, and it's up to you to make it the way you wish. Nothing will be handed to you, complete success and happiness comes from dedication and education. Take the time to learn the rules, pick up a book, and continue to grow. Don't stress the small things, your meant for a life much bigger than what your living now. This is your chance to stand up, take a step, and make today your first day in the direction of your dreams.

Put your fears to the side, because fears only limit your potential. The fact is if your learning from every experience and always continuing to grow, you have nothing to fear because the only way your moving is up. Stop doubting yourself, take the step and move. I would like you to ask yourself a question, that happens to be the same question I asked myself that changed my life. I read a book called Five Wishes by Gay Hendricks. In this book Gay has a conversation with someone in which that person asks him the question, "if you were on your deathbed today, would you consider your life a complete success?" Ask yourself this same question. If not then why not? Are you completely happy with everything in your life right now? If not, why aren't you doing more to change it. I wont let you slip away with excuses, nether should you let yourself. If your currently not living the life of your dreams, the only answer is your not working hard enough. Don't settle for less, make it happen. If you do one day you will look back, and be proud to see all you have accomplished, and realize that the world is limitless. All you had to do is make it happen.

Great post! I am currently writing a 3-book series titled, Reading Between The Lines, The Hidden Power of Language, and one of my mantras in this series is for each of us to take responsibility for our thoughts and words.

You obviously have the same beliefs...;)

There is without any doubt whatsover great value to positive thinking. However, under extremely adverse circumstances, what that does is let you stay sane and somewhat productive even as it derails your life in most respects.

I'm in my 16th year of a rare incurable degenerative disease and now mostly bedridden with very few productive hours in a day. Mentally and spiritually I'm not only intact but very well - despite seeing most of my dreams and plans turn impossible.

I also think of, say, the millions of folks caught up in disasters not of their own making - genocide victims or people living in great poverty. Positive thinking is a tremendous strength but it is not a guarantee of success.

Realize that fear is just false evidence appearing real. A mental delusion which says

1. Your not good enough
2. Try and you will fail
3. You know your not as good as him
4. Your a loser

All these thought of fear and negativity may consume your mind at any time within a day. Understand that its just your fearful thoughts. You can change them by focusing on thought of positivity.

The people who choose not to learn from mistakes, life controls them instead of them controlling their life. Nice post.
