"The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me."
- Ayn Rand (1905-1982)
Remember when you were a kid and your parents COULDN'T stop you from doing anything? Remember when you would tell anyone NO when they challenged what YOU wanted?
It is FUNNY to me that as we "grow up," we actually begin LIMITING ourselves through past experiences and individual beliefs. We BELIEVE because we didn't get a good grade on an English exam, that we are not good writers. We decide the results of our past relationships actually FORECAST future relationship success or failure. We start shying away from RISK, so we don't have to feel pain.
Somehow, we CONVINCE ourselves that OUTSIDE factors have some limiting capability on our achievement. We RATIONALIZE that we do not have control over our results and accomplishments. In REALITY, if you DECIDE to accomplish and succeed - there is almost NOTHING that can stop you!
2 DEGREE SUCCESS STEP:
Life is a matter of CHOICES. One of the most important choices is choosing to take OWNERSHIP of your success and actions!
Do not ACCEPT nor ALLOW others to dictate your actions or success results. If someone makes an effort to influence your decisions or actions in a way that CONTRADICTS your success plan, you must STAND UP and take CONTROL of the situation.
Find a COMPROMISE, seek DISCUSSION and SHARE your goals so as to create a mutually beneficial environment. People will RESPECT your willingness to stand and say "Try To Stop Me!"
Cheers,
Zach
