We enter 2017 with a new opportunity for new goals, new challenges and changes for a prosperous new year. My hope for you is the new year is a year of action.
Success Magazine’s article titled, “Why You Need to Stop Worrying About Failing” writes about people being so afraid of failing they don’t pursue their goals.
Most of us have plenty of dreams and aspirations.
Some of us even write them down.
But it’s the action takers that get results.
Those of us that stalled or petered out with inaction didn’t get what they aspired for.
Which group do you belong to?
Did you meet your goals for your relationships?
Did you restore an estranged relationship with a stepchild, read material on how to be better stepparent or join a support group for stepparents?
If your answer is “yes,” then great job!! Bravo!
If your answer is “no,” then ask yourself one more question, “Is it because you didn’t take action to make improvements to your family relationships?”
Commit to making 2017 a year of action.
Whatever you can do, or dream you can, Begin it.
Boldness has genius, power and magic in it, Begin it now.
– Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
– Amelia Earhart
There are risks and costs to action.
But they are far less than the long range
risks of comfortable inaction.
– John F. Kennedy
The path to success is to take massive, determined action.
– Tony Robbins
The way of success:
Visualize the end result,
Plan, Take action, Persevere,
Re-plan, Take action, Persevere.
– Jonathan Lockwood Huie
