Change Begins with Choice

By
Jim Rohn

Any day we wish; we can discipline ourselves to change it all.
Any day we wish; we can open the book that will open our mind to new knowledge.
Any day we wish; we can start a new activity.
Any day we wish; we can start the process of life change.
We can do it immediately, or next week, or next month, or next year.
We can also do nothing. We can pretend rather than perform. And if the idea of having to change ourselves makes us uncomfortable, we can remain as we are. We can choose rest over labor, entertainment over education, delusion over truth, and doubt over confidence. The choices are ours to make.
But while we curse the effect, we continue to nourish the cause. As Shakespeare uniquely observed, "The fault is not in the stars, but in ourselves." We created our circumstances by our past choices. We have both the ability and the responsibility to make better choices beginning today. Those who are in search of the good life do not need more answers or more time to think things over to reach better conclusions. They need the truth. They need the whole truth. And they need nothing but the truth.
We cannot allow our errors in judgment, repeated every day, to lead us down the wrong path. We must keep coming back to those basics that make the biggest difference in how our life works out. And then we must make the very choices that will bring life, happiness and joy into our daily lives.
And if I may be so bold to offer my last piece of advice for someone seeking and needing to make changes in their life - If you don’t like how things are, change it! You’re not a tree. You have the ability to totally transform every area in your life - and it all begins with your very own power of choice.

"It is in the moment of decision that our destiny is decided"

Anthony Robbins

As always, this is given with much love.

2009 = 2000 (MIND)

“Our income is determined by our philosophy and not the economy.”

Jim Rohn

2008 was an excellent year! Well if you’re watching the news and listening to the world reports, chances are you might not agree, but I believe that any year above ground is an excellent year. In 2008 I had some great opportunities for growth or what the uninitiated would refer to as challenges or problems. I am happy to report that I am still here, sexier than ever and looking forward to the blessings of 2000 (MIND).

Yes, as far as I am concern, this is the year of the Mind. Everything begins with thought, and thoughts are formulated and focused in the mind. So for 2000(MIND) I am going to get into the specifics of how to manifest your ideal life by focusing on your thoughts. In 2000(MIND) we will get away from all this economic bailout, downsizing, unemployment and the fear based ideas that they’ve been pumping into us. This year we will focus on great health and great wealth.

For the past six months I’ve been conversing with some of the most brilliant MINDS on the Planet and I will show you how to really create some dynamic shift in what you’re presently manifesting. Chances are I’ll be doing most of my blogging by video, this way we can get a lot more information out to you in a shorter amount of time.

Stay tune, stay focused and prepare to prosper.

Much love,

Kirk Nugent

P.S

I’ve posted the video, “I No Longer Write About Depression” just to give you an idea of how far I’ve traveled and to let you know that EVERYTHING is possible! One thing that I’ve come to understand over the years is that you don’t have to be great to get started, but you have to get started in order to be great! I intend to see you at the TOP! Live long and prosper….Happy New Year to ALL and to ALL a Happy New Year.

I NEED YOU TO REMEMBER YOUR GREATNESS

They say of every bunch, there’s one that makes you weep,

And of my family, I AM THAT BLACK SHEEP!

I don’t subscribe to their schools,

Don’t abide by their rules.

I know that my mind is my jewel

So I refuse to work like a mule

In someone else’s quest for wealth, I am no tool!

I know that my thought is what I brought

I sow what I reap

Therefore I am proud to be the Black sheep!

The Black sheep dares to be different so he chooses to think,

In negativity he doesn’t allow his thoughts to sink.

The Black Sheep wants more than to be lead by a shepherd,

He wants to choose his destiny, he demands to be heard.

He lives in the moment with all the gusto that he can,

The Black Sheep ignores the limitations set by man.

The Black sheep knows that in order to grow he has to risk something,

So he leaves the flock and he searches with in!

When he left he realizes that to another level he has grown,

It took blood, sweat and tears to break the barriers of his comfort zone!

He visualize his mind as a garden, so constantly he weeds,

Because the garden is kept clean, his horizon recedes.

The Black sheep sees life, but not through the shepherd’s eyes

He doesn’t fear the test, because he knows that he was born to testify,

So he watches; watches as the other sheep try to justify,

Their mediocre lives and minds that have been deprived,

They’re obsequious to their boss and condescending to their wives.

They play the game without ever questioning the rules,

You call them sheep, I call them a flock of fools!

The Black sheep question the rules,

He’s not enclosed by the shepherd’s fence.

If the shepherd is always right, then why was he given a conscience?

The Black sheep dares to be different, so he chooses to exercise his mind,

The Black sheep is a rare creature, the rarest of mankind!

DARE TO BE DIFFERENT!!!!!

“The dog in the kennel barks at his fleas,
The dog that hunts does not feel them.”
Chinese Proverb

Have you noticed that people who are actively engage in pursuing their passion are seldom distracted by the little thorns of life? On Saturday my son flew from West Palm Beach to New Jersey. This is the beginning of his summer vacation and he was excited about spending time with his grandmother and cousins. He had a connecting flight in Charlotte, North Carolina. Upon his arrival in Charlotte, his connecting flight was delayed for twelve hours. He periodically texted me (have you notice that kids don’t talk anymore, they text?) to let me know the status of his flight. Continue Reading »

Just For Today

Life is staring me down, Like Malcolm Gladwell waiting for me to blink

Everything is on the line and in this game of nerves, I’m trying hard not to flinch.

And just then I stop and think

That by the yard it’s hard, but inch by inch everything is a cinch.

And just by memorizing that one line, that one little rhyme

I’ve come to realize that the most effective way to eat an elephant

Is one bite at a time.

So I don’t have to be on point

No, not every day from June right back until May

All I have to do is manage my decisions…just for today

Just for today

I will prepare for my future

Because I know you either get good at sowing in the spring

Or begging in the winter

So today I’m keeping it moving like a marching band drummer

Because I know there will come a time when winter will ask

What have you been doing all summer? Continue Reading »
