Why Not You?


“The state of your life is nothing more than a reflection of your state of mind.”

- Dr. Wayne W. Dyer

Why Not You? by Steve Marobli

Today, many will awaken with a fresh sense of inspiration. Why not you?

Today, many will open their eyes to the beauty that surrounds them. Why not you?

Today, many will choose to leave the ghost of yesterday behind and seize the immeasurable power of today. Why not you?

Today, many will break through the barriers of the past by looking at the blessings of the present. Why not you?

Today, for many the burden of self doubt and insecurity will be lifted by the security and confidence of empowerment. Why not you?

Today, many will rise above their believed limitations and make contact with their powerful innate strength. Why not you?

Today, many will choose to live in such a manner that they will be a positive role model for children. Why not you?

Today, many will choose to free themselves from the personal imprisonment of their bad habits. Why not you?

Today, many will choose to live free of conditions and rules governing their own happiness. Why not you?

Today, many will find abundance in simplicity. Why not you?

Today, many will decide to no longer sit back with a victim mentality, but to take charge of their lives and make positive changes. Why not you?

Today, many will take the action necessary to make a difference. Why not you?

Today, many will make the commitment to be a better mother, father, son, daughter, student, teacher, worker, boss, brother, sister, and so much more. Why not you?

Today is a new day!  Many will seize this day. Many will live it to the fullest. Why not you?

News Flash!  You are in complete control of your life, nobody else, just you!   People that don't understand this concept believe that they are only capable of   responding to the events and circumstances that go on around them.  Hence, it’s events and circumstance that shape the person.   These people do not understand the concept that we become what we think about.   So in essence, it’s our thoughts that create our circumstances and events.  Since it is impossible for someone else to think for you, you alone have the power to choose your thoughts.   You can choose to think negatively and focus on your limitations, or positively and think about possibilities.  Negative thinking can only produce negative results.  Conversely, positive thinking can only produce positive results.

Remember, you are where you are at in your life today, because of the choices YOU have made.   Just as you had the power to choose your thoughts up to this period in your life, you have the power to choose the thoughts that will shape who you become in the future.   Take heed, your future begins with the how you think in the present.   Now that you know that you create the events and circumstances in your life and it is not the events and circumstance that create you, you can choose to create a better you. 

It’s true, beginning today, many people will choose to live their lives differently.  They have come to the realization that they possess the sole power to make a change in their lives.  I applaud those who will choose to think differently today .  I only ask, Why not you?

It's your life: live it, love it, & celebrate it!
