Just Thoughts
May 5, 2008 by simplicity
I’ve slipped a little this weekend with steak and party food, not to mention chocolate ice cream all of last week. Stress was the contributing factor. I need to compensate during the coming week. I’ve got to stick to being vegetarian. Of course, no sweets.
Events of the weekend included the error of me getting into political conversation at couple of gatherings. Big mistake. Oh well; life goes on.
My lunch with one of my business advisor on Sunday was the highlight of the weekend. I’m often asked the secret to my strength in starting on my own. The answer is being bold and never stopping to believe in yourself. Think big and go after your dreams. My advisor and confidante stressed just that. He reminded me it’s the vision and strength of one person that changes course most times. He urged me to remain relentless in my pursuits.
I would add, form an advisory board. Pick advisors wisely; leaders in their fields and people who share your vision. Surround yourself with people who make you feel good. Personally, I don’t like complainers and am not a fan of can’t-do attitude. I could go and on and on but for now that’s my two cents.
In the words of Confucius: Wherever you go, go with your heart.
