No Don'ts in Your Life

Aum Sairam

Don't Say I Can't:
There are two words that I don't allow in my household - I can't. The fact is that most of what we say that we can't do can actually be done, if only we put our mind to it. My mother taught me from an early age that if something else had already done it, I could too. And if no one else had already done it, I could certainly be the first. Good advice!

Don't Give Up:
If you are going to achieve anything in life, you are going to get knocked down along the way. Those who succeed are those who get back up and forge ahead. My eldest child is in gymnastics and I am convinced that more often than not, success lies on the other side of the river hardship. Determination, and a don't give up attitude will see us through the hard times and on to victory!

Don't Get Discouraged:
Discouragement is an attitude. Instead of going to the depths of the dumps, tell your self you are going to do great. Choose to be courageous. One of the greatest powers we have been given as humans is the ability to choose our attitude. All people experience hard circumstances. Yet some say to themselves that they will learn from them and forge ahead a better person.

Don't Be A Lone Ranger:
Anybody who has achieved greatness has done it with the help of many others who bought into the vision and pushed the cart. The most famous and accomplished achievers in the world all had a cast of others who helped them along. If the great need others, then so do we. The sooner we realize that we need others, the quicker we will achieve our dreams.

Don't Accept Anything Less Than Excellence:
Good gets along, excellence succeeds. Have you ever heard anyone say of the greats 'Yeah, they were pretty good.' They were excellent! We should never, under any circumstances, accept less than excellence. We should constantly be striving to better ourselves, our situations, our relationship, and the people around us, helping them to become excellent.
