TODAY MATTERS – Why Time Management Is An Oxymoron!

Successful people make the right decisions early in life and manage them daily. That is why that time management is an oxymoron! If I am proactive I am preparing. If I am reactive then I am repairing.

John Cotter stated that people tend to accept their life instead of leading their life!

Today’s Attitude Gives Me Possibilities!

Why My Attitude Matters Today

My ATTITUDE at the outset of any project that I am about to under-take affects the outcome more than anything else.

Sigmund Freud the father of modern psychotherapy was considered to be a genius in his time. Yet he was a pessimist, skeptic, and battled depression. He started using cocaine at 28 years of age with a belief that happiness was difficult to obtain and therefore needed additional means to achieve it. He wrote: “We are threatened with suffering from three directions; from our body which is doomed to decay; from our world which rages against us with merciless forces; and our relationships with mankind which is the most painful.”

Take responsibility For Your Attitude

Purpose today that you are going to change your “Bad Attitude” areas. The first step is to change your thinking about yourself. Start becoming the person you desire to be, not the present current version of yourself.

Walt Emerson stated that what lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. Your attitude has a compounding affect. I choose to not feel sorry for people with bad attitudes – it is a choice that you can change!
