Guess Who's Really in Charge of Your Life

Believe it or not, you are the superstar of your life. You get to make everything happen. You control your thoughts, actions, and reactions. You control your choices, which ultimately affects every factor in your life.

The most successful people I've met are the ones that have taken responsible role for everything in their lives. Even if they grew up disadvantaged, they learned to not dwell on it. They decided that they wouldn't let their history or current situation hold them back. They used their stories as motivation to make their lives better.

Realizing that you are really in control of your life is freeing. It's an awesome feeling. You feel empowered knowing that you are (and always were) in charge of your life.

Life rewards those who take action. They are the go-getters who decide to get started (and getting started is the hardest part for many people). Action brings you one step closer to attaining your goal, even if it's a failure. "Failure" is a life lesson disguised as a disappointment. Even challenges are life lessons make a stronger, smarter, and wiser. They give you the experience you need to make better decisions. Better choices lead to better results.

Your life is (and always has been) all about you.
