I was recently introduced to Tony Robbins via Oprah. Gotta love her. In her piece on Mr. Robbins who is a world famous motivational speaker/life coach he discuss how everyones life revolves around their story. If that doesn't start your mind to racing. The part that really moved me was when he discussed how the only thing keeping us from getting what we want is the story we keep telling ourselves about why it can't happen...... I love this.
My unhumble beginings started just like most of you. It seemed began with pain, poverty, misfortune, and lack of added with molestation, insecutity and no father in the household. The most moving part of this is realizing things don't have to end the way the story usually pans out to be. Although those misfortuntes seemed to be my beginings that is not by far how I want my story to end or my life to define me as. Ok let me repeat that, that is not the way I want my story to end. Not how everyone else wants or thinks it should go but me. I am the author of this book. This is my story. I am not saying their isn't a supporting cast but the main character is you. The crazy this is that my bestie and I discuss this and many other topic as it relates to us all the time. I always say that because I grew up in a negative environment that it is hard to visualize myself in a different situation or my life ending up any different than others that were in my situation. I like everyone else in the free world want bigger and better for myself but because of my upbringing I place limits on myself and my abilities.
We all know and can't deny the power of our thoughts. You know that you are the author of your own destiny. We have to now take control and write out how we want our story to play itself out.
