There’s something inside each of us that fuels our motivation, our passion, and our reason to succeed. Keep encouraging yourself to take necessary risks to refuel your confidence. Question your motives. Then search for answer. Question any doubts you or others may have about your courage to succeed. You are what’s important.

Don’t let negative thoughts get in way of your progress and your goals. Control your thoughts. Think about what’s important to you. When your thoughts are positive, they have a way of replenishing your courage. No matter how often unpleasant or difficult challenges get you down, don’t give in to negative thinking. Just pick yourself up and move on. Focus on what gives you your strength and uniqueness.

Remember: motivation, passion, and your reason to succeed in life, as well as in business, are essential requirements to reaching your goals. Live life in a constant state of awareness, with peaceful thoughts, a dash of forcefulness, and a good measure of faith and spirituality. You will then be exercising your gift of courage.

This *also* makes your dream closer! It’s a win-win situation.

When you take action, you will be truly astounded by opportunities that present themselves to you, which you never would have thought of before hand. This shows that although making plans is essential, taking action is even more essential, because you open yourself up to all help that unexpectedly comes your way.

A great example of taking action is third magic word:

3.Ask.

Just ask! Do not think that world knows what you want without you asking, and do not prejudge, do not decide what world’s answer will be.

Many people have a real problem with asking for things, it’s a failing in our education if you ask me, but it is stunning how often answer is a simple ‘yes’, if you just have courage to ask.

And fourth magic word beginning with letter ‘A’?

4.Abracadabra. Not a very good joke I agree, but it makes me laugh. Abracadabra, magic word… Geddit? Hhhm.

So there we are, get your ATTITUDE right, which will enable you to take ACTION, and often simplest action you can take is just to ASK.

The path will just unfold before you, take it from me.
