If you want to feel important right now.,

If you want to feel special right now.

If you want to feel loved right now.

If you want to understand how unique

and important you are in the universe right now.

Think about this RIGHT NOW:

1. There are over 6 billion people on this planet.

2. Of the 6 billion people that are on this planet, there is not

a single person that shares your exact genetic code.

3. There is not a single person out of over 6 billion

that has the memories embedded in their brain that you have.

You have years of life experiences that no one else

has. These experiences make you unique and special.....DON'T

EVER FORGET THAT!

Yes, there is only one "YOU"

Yes, it is virtually impossible to find another "YOU".

When you are depressed.

When you feel unloved.

When you feel that you are not special.

When your self esteem is low.

Think about this:

1. You are special, in the entire universe there is only ONE....YOU.

2. You are the only person on the planet that possesses the

specific mix of talents skills and looks that you, and only

you have.

Use the God given talents you have to help others.

Use the God given skills you have to create success for yourself

and your loved ones.

NEVER forget that YOU are a miracle.

NEVER forget that there is no one like you ANYWHERE in the entire universe!

Think About The Power Of The Word "Choose" ...

Dear friends,

Think about the word "choose."

It may be the single most important word in your life.

Why?

Let's look at what the dictionary says about the word "choose"

1. to select from a number of possibilities; pick by preference: Example: She chose Sunday for her departure.  
2. to prefer or decide (to do something): Example: He chose to run for election.  
3. to want; desire.  
4. to make a choice: Example: He chose carefully.  
5. to be inclined: Example: You may stay here, if you choose.  

Let's look at #3 first, "to want, to desire," we all have wants and desires, you can "choose" to love or not be loved.

You can choose  to seek after that which you desire, or simply hope it will magically come to you someday.

Look at #1 "to select from a number of possibilities" WOW, this is powerful.

A number of possibilities, I would say this is almost unlimited.

Here are some examples:

1. You could choose to live a sedentary life or an active life.
2. You could choose to imagine your life as successful or believe that success will never come your way.
3. You could choose to believe in something when all those around you say you should not believe in it.
4. You could choose to take "action" or not take action.
5. You could choose to gain knowledge by reading articles like this one as well as books and magazines that will empower you with
life changing information, or you could choose to watch more TV.
(here is something to think about when watching TV.....VIRTUALLY EVERYONE YOU ARE WATCHING IS GETTING PAID TO BE ON TELEVISION...
how much do you get paid to watch it?)

6. Look at #2 from the dictionary listing above. To prefer or decide (to do something):

Example: He chose to run for election.
Every Prime Minister in India has ever had first chose to seek and/or accept the job.

You see, it is "YOU"  that chooses, YOU have the power to choose the direction of your life.

* You can choose to seek success.
* You can choose to have a healthy body by choosing what you put in it and what you do with it.
* You can choose to use the power of attraction by creating a movie in your mind of you succeeding and believing that the success you are visualizing is already yours!
* You can choose to take that new job in another city.
* You can choose to forgive.

But here is the bottom line.

It is "YOU" who must choose, no one else can choose for you.

Here is an important question......Will you choose?

Make no mistake about it, even if you choose NOT to choose you have chosen a direction for your life......that is POWERFUL!

So I challenge you today to look at your life and CHOOSE!

* Choose success

* Choose unconditional love

* Choose health

* Choose to take the time to teach your children what you have learned about choosing.

You know there are areas of your life "RIGHT NOW" where you have failed to make a choice....to choose.
