If you had a magic wand, and you could create the exact life and inspiration you want, what would be in it? Who would be in it? Where would it be?

Once you have that answer in your head, work backwards from that goal and write out the staircase to get there.

What actions “lead-up” to that life? What kind of person do you need to become to live at that level? How does the person you are now compare? Which of your habits would change? How would your thinking be different? How can you start living more like that person in action and thought TODAY?

It’s easy to forget your road map, inspiration and your target destination when you are getting stuck in the daily grind, listening to the nay-sayers, or comparing yourself to others.

The only one who determines the success you achieve is YOU. Not your competition. Nor your partner. Not your agent. YOU.

Write those goals out. Make that action plan. Think those positive thoughts. Take the necessary steps.

Become the person you dream you can be— one step at a time.

In the words of a cult musical….

“Don’t dream it….BE IT”

Make it happen–I’m looking forward to your acceptance speech already.
