Take it or leave it

Another gem from Bob Perks


"Take it or leave it...it's that simple."
By Bob Perks

Life is tough.  Be gentle on yourself.  You are the only one who controls the pressure that the outside world imposes on you. 

Take what is said about you and first consider the source. 
Leave what you know to be untrue and consider the rest by placing values on a scale of one to five.

Take what you can do something about and do it.
Leave what you cannot change or influence and move on.

Take a chance on yourself.  You aren't gambling you are investing in a sure thing.
Leave all fear and concern over this investment because it is a solid with big returns.

Take a close look at where you are at this moment.  Ask yourself  "Is this where I thought I'd be ten years ago?"
Leave behind all the mistakes, miscalulations and wrong turns and get back on track for a new destination.

Take inventory of all your gifts and talents. Write them down.  Add to them daily as you discover more.
Leave that list where you can see it everyday.

Take a moment everyday to express gratitude for all that you are, all that you can be and all that you have.
Leave expressions of that gratitude along the way each day in the form of praise, kind words and support to others.

Take less from life and leave more to others.

"Let others lead small lives, but not you. Let others argue over small things, but not you. Let others cry over small hurts, but not you. Let others leave their future in someone else's hands, but not you."
Jim Rohn


You see it is that simple..."Take it or leave it."

I believe in YOU!
