We are often our own
worst enemies when it comes to stunting our success. What’s to blame? A lot of
the time, it’s our tongue—and the excuses that spew from it. It is one of our
most powerful tools, and we use it on a daily basis, often oblivious to the
potential destruction it can cause.

The words out of our
mouths can either build us up—or they can tear us down. The words we choose to
say can dramatically assist—or harm—our victory.

“WHAT’S MEANT TO BE WILL BE.”
“WHAT’S MEANT TO BE WILL BE.”
It’s great to have the
confidence and faith that things will work themselves out if you’ve done all
that you can on your end to set yourself up for success. But it’s when you
decide to just sit back and wait for your “destined” achievement that the
problem arises—when you stop taking the necessary action toward a major goal.

Stop saying, “What

“I’D RATHER BE HAPPY THAN WEALTHY.”
“I’D RATHER BE HAPPY THAN WEALTHY.”
Why is it that we
often treat wealth and happiness as mutually exclusive entities? Think back on
your history with money as a child. Did your parents engrave in your brain
their hardships with money, telling you that it doesn’t come easy, that it’s
the root of all evil—that it’s in control?

Your relationship with money doesn’t have to be one of regret or
difficulty, and it certainly doesn’t turn you into an evil villain. Sure, some
people use their money for horrible things, and yes, wealth might change some
people for the worse. But it can also be used for good, and it can change you
for the better, improving your comfort, security and influence.

Change your mindset
around money right now by believing in the deepest part of your core that you
deserve it and will use it wisely.

“I DON’T HAVE THE TIME.”
“I DON’T HAVE THE TIME.”
We all have the same
24 hours, the same seven days. Whether you use that time to work toward
your biggest goals or waste it, using the justification that “you don’t have
the time” is your choice. The only things you should “not have the time for”
are negative people and excuses. If it’s important to you, you have to find the
time—you have to make the time.
