"Can't"

As some of you might know, I am a member
of the organization known as the
Million Mind March.

We're a mastermind group.

We learn to think...

We speak increase into our lives and
the lives of others.

We become
"Ten Feet Tall and Bulletproof"

And we bury the words, "I can't"

FOREVER!

My friend John posted this poem
entitled, "Can't" which speaks to the
spirit of our organization.

I HAD to share it with you!


"Can't"
by Edgar A. Guest

Can't is the worst word that's written or spoken;
Doing more harm here than slander and lies;
On it is many a strong spirit broken,
And with it many a good purpose dies.
It springs from the lips of the thoughtless each morning
And robs us of courage we need through the day:
It rings in our ears like a timely-sent warning
And laughs when we falter and fall by the way.

Can't is the father of feeble endeavor,
The parent of terror and half-hearted work;
It weakens the efforts of artisans clever,
And makes of the toiler an indolent shirk.
It poisons the soul of the man with a vision,
It stifles in infancy many a plan;
It greets honest toiling with open derision
And mocks at the hopes and the dreams of a man.

Can't is a word none should speak without blushing;
To utter it should be a symbol of shame;
Ambition and courage it daily is crushing;
It blights a man's purpose and shortens his aim.
Despise it with all of your hatred of error;
Refuse it the lodgment it seeks in your brain;
Arm against it as a creature of terror,
And all that you dream of you some day shall gain.

Can't is the word that is foe to ambition,
An enemy ambushed to shatter your will;
Its prey is forever the man with a mission
And bows but to courage and patience and skill.
Hate it, with hatred that's deep and undying,
For once it is welcomed 'twill break any man;
Whatever the goal you are seeking, keep trying
And answer this demon by saying:

"I CAN!"


Till next time

Fire!

I recently heard a story about a beautiful building
complex that was burning out of control.

It was well known for its large, enclosed courtyard with its
elaborate gardens and was nestled serenely at the foot of a hill.

Although many large fire trucks surrounded the building,
the firemen were unable to put out the blaze.

All of a sudden, a smaller fire truck crashed through
the blazing building and into the courtyard where it stopped.
The men immediately jumped off and began fighting the stubborn
flames. To everyone’s amazement, the fire was soon out.

As you might imagine, the team from that truck became instant
heroes and in appreciation for their bravery and selfless
actions, the building’s owner gave the fire department a
rather substantial contribution.

When the small fire squad was asked how they might use
the money, its Captain said…

“Well, first thing we’re going to do is
get the brakes on that truck fixed!”

Sure, the story is humorous, but it’s also thought provoking.
At times, we need to change the way we’re doing certain things.
But most of us don't like change.

Some reasons we’re reluctant to change might be…

· We’re familiar with the methods we’re using
· We would have to invest time to learn new methods
· We want someone to tell us what to do
· We’re in a hurry
· We don’t want to upset anyone or are worried what
others may think

I’m sure there are as many reasons as there are people,
but the fact remains…people resist changing.

BUT...

let me ask you,

Is your business going down in flames?

Are you ready to break through the wall that’s between
you and the success you still dream of?

The tools are available, my friends,

AND...

many of them are FREE!
(shhh…don’t tell the “latest, greatest system” people I told you!)

You CAN use different methods.

You, too, can put together your own system for little to no cost.
(and make it duplicatalbe so you can teach it to
your entire organization)

You, too, can BREAK THROUGH THAT WALL!!

Sign up for my tools, tips & training if you haven’t already.
I send the best industry secrets I can find…and let you in on
the tools that I use and reveal the stuff I ACTUALLY do myself.

While you’re at it, check out Leaders Club free online
Prospecting Lab that will show you how to use what you
already have
to grow your business.

You CAN DO IT!!

Wisdom

A dear friend shared this wise philosophy with me
and so I pass it on...


Live life fully while you're here.
Experience everything.
Take care of yourself and your friends.
Have fun, be crazy, be weird.
Go out and screw up!
You're going to anyway,
so you might as well enjoy the process.
Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes:
find the cause of your problem and eliminate it.
Don't try to be perfect;
just be an excellent example of being human.

by Anthony Robbins
