You and you alone are responsible for taking actions to create the life of your dreams. Nobody else can (or will) do it for you.

Think of fear as a 2-year-old child who doesn't want to go grocery shopping with you. Because you must buy groceries, you'll just have to take the two year old with you. Fear is no different. In other words, acknowledge that fear exists but don't let it keep you from doing important tasks.

The most successful people I know create superior results yet still maintain a balance among work, family, and recreation in their lives.

Don't kid yourself. Be honest with yourself. Take your own inventory.

When your dreams include service to others - accomplishing something that contributes to others - it also accelerates the accomplishment of that goal. People want to be part of something that contributes and makes a difference.

You only have control over three things in your life - the thoughts you think, the images you visualize, and the actions you take (your behavior). How you use these three things determines everything you experience. If you don't like what you are producing and experiencing, you have to change your responses.

You don't have the potential to create, you are always creating.
