Beyond your needs

Don’t let yourself be held back by what you think you need. Go ahead and do all you can with what you have.

Sure, it might be nice to be further along on the road. Yet you are where you are, so go ahead and start moving ahead.

What you see as a need is probably just an excuse. Instead of waiting for your needs to be met, go ahead and do all you can without them.

Don’t let your focus on your needs blind you to your possibilities. Focus not on what you want to get away from, but on where you truly wish to go.

There’s more than one way to get there. If one path is blocked, get creative.

Stop obsessing over the needs and excuses, and start taking effective action. Go beyond your needs, and create the real fulfillment of which you are most certainly capable.

— Ralph Marston
