“It’s time to believe in yourself. You have enough critics. You have the ability to do more than you ever thought you could do. Don’t let your past define you. The past is not a place you can point to on a map. It exists only in your mind. Why do you continually seek to return to a place that simply doesn’t exist? Your task is to remain focused forward toward the future and to stay rooted in the present. Because, the present is where you will make your impact and change lives. You redefine your future when you redesign your present. As you look at your life, consider your goals and what you are doing on a daily basis to bring them to fruition. Are you on track? You must continually monitor your progress and course correct as early as you can in order to be successful. Above all, be coachable. Figure out what you want to do, find someone who has already done it and hire them to assist you. Hire them so you can save yourself time and costly mistakes. You see, there is no secret to success. There is a system to success. Once you tap into that system, you are golden. I promise you that you have something special. Something you can believe in. You have Greatness within you!” —Les Brown
