Success Systems For Life by Mr. Fred Fitts
MOTIVATION AND YOUR LIFE
"Are you afraid to take chances? Does that fear paralyze you, making you incapable of actively seeking the changes you know are needed?
Are you afraid of life and the demands it places on you? Do the demands seem overwhelming at times?
Do you dream of a better life, but those dreams seem under attack? Do the obstacles in your path seem insurmountable?
The old counsel was never truer than today, “Find a purpose and fling your life into it.” When you act boldly and decisively, you adhere to this noble ideal.
A parable: The eagle and the jelly-fish are said to be composed of the same kind of cells. But one is spineless and backboneless, and without stability; he drifts with the tide. The other soars to the most sublime heights, seemingly effortless, but with great strength and purpose. Which will you be?
Are you satisfied to just work along, or do you want to soar higher? Have you the ambition to advance? If so, stick to your efforts to go forward. It would be better for you to struggle climbing higher than to stay at rest in a rut. Do not be content to simply be average. Make your mind up to be far above the average.
The ability to control your motivation may be the single greatest skill in life. A skill? Certainly. Motivation is a matter of thinking about what you want and learning how to achieve it". Read more at
