What you enable

by Ralph Marston

What will you enable yourself to achieve today? What fears will you make the choice to transcend?

What intentions will you follow through on with action? What assumptions will you step beyond in order to learn something new?

It can be comforting to blame the shortcomings and disappointments in your life on factors beyond your control. Yet those external factors are insignificant compared to the limitations you place on yourself.

External factors certainly exist and can have great influence. And yet you also have the power to choose how to navigate through the world.

Through your attitude, your thoughts, your priorities, commitments, and actions, you can greatly enable yourself. You can improve your own effectiveness, allowing life-enhancing behaviors and achievements.

Today has the potential to be filled with new value and positive experience. Step up, take charge of what you control, and enable that to happen.
