Here's a great quote from Jim.

“Your life does not get better by chance,
it gets better by change.”

How true is this one huh?

I've also heard it said another way:

"If you want things in your life to change, you have to change things in your life."

Life isn't going to automatically, by fate or magic, get better for any of us.

Life is only going to get better if we do something about it.

If we don't like something about how it is now then change is the only option.

I've heard the word insanity defined as doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results.

If we keep moving down the same path we are on now we will be on the same path later and will be attracting all the same things.

There is no growth in that.

With growth comes change and if you are not growing then you are dying.

Essentially, if you are not changing and evolving you are sealing your own fate.

Change is inevitable.

Those who embrace it evolve in forward moving ways.

Those who do not, stay virtually the same.

I love it when an old friend shows up that i haven't seen in a while and says they didn't recognize me.

I feel like it shows me that I am evolving and progressing.

If we leave everything up to chance then we will never have any control over what we are achieving.

I have something that I have said for years that I sort of live by.

I came up with it years ago and have kept it with me since.

I actually have it written on my wall, I like it so much.

If I offend anyone by this statement I am sorry, I know it is a bit candid.

"Winners create what they want. Losers accept what they are given."

Are you creating what you want in life, or are you accepting what is handed to you?

I would love to inspire you to begin creating if you aren't already!

If you don't like what is around you, in any way, it is up to you to change it!

No one will do that for you.

In fact, they can't.

People can influence your reality but no one can actually create in anyone's reality but their own.

So, if you have been waiting for things to "get better", stop.

Take the action necessary to make it better.

You are the only one that can.

Remember,

“Your life does not get better by chance,
it gets better by change.”
