If something excites us and we would like to see it come to fruitation, let's follow Mother Nature. God gave her certain rules to follow and they work. Sorry, but we are notrepparttar be-all and end-all when it comes to how everything is suppose to work. Let's followrepparttar 123646 seasons and accomplish everything we want to in our lifetimes. It's almost Spring - so let's brush offrepparttar 123647 snow that might be lying on top, or clear a patch so we have working room, get out our tools, and watchrepparttar 123648 sun and allow it to warm our plot and help us along. In other words, begin a project if you feel it is worthy of your time and effort, and finish it. The streets of frustration are paved with unfinished but started projects, and more are coming in everyday. Let's not add torepparttar 123649 heap, and begin, endeavor, and bring what we start to a conclusion. We will be happier, everyone around us will surely benefit by our efforts, and - well, there is no more wonderful feeling than seeing that seed begin to push upward and bloom. It's Spring - let's ENJOY! ©Arleen M. Kaptur 2003 Janaury

And they require someone to trainrepparttar other in this simpler procedure. Who do ya' think they pick. I'mrepparttar 123645 only one available. So, at 17 I showrepparttar 123646 29 others what to do and how to do it.

Wait, there's more. They bump me up. offrepparttar 123647 line, to new responsibilities. I'm nowrepparttar 123648 Troubleshooter forrepparttar 123649 whole group. This means when someone runs into a problem, they call on me to solve it.

When I can't figure out what to do, I go torepparttar 123650 Shift Supervisor, Dick Baker. He's from Green Bay, Wisconsin. His religion is football. The Green Bay Packers are his heroes. His Gods. Every other word out of his mouth is Green Bay. (You've metrepparttar 123651 type.) He always solvesrepparttar 123652 problem.

Here'srepparttar 123653 scene: I'm hunched over a work station. I'm staring downrepparttar 123654 CRT andrepparttar 123655 perplexing problem. Dick Baker, a few feet away, quietly speaks torepparttar 123656 person he's with: "That young Burt is so good at what he does--he never has to call on me for help any more."

I'm moved by those words. (They prove to be magic words.) Someone believes in me. Someone believes I'm better than I know I am. Maybe he's right. Let's find out.

I scrunch down addressingrepparttar 123657 problem. The sweat pours from my brow. I break through and solverepparttar 123658 problem. I never have to call on Dick Baker for help ever again.

Because someone believes in me, I tap into a power I never knew was there. Now I believe in myself. I believe in my power to transcend perceived limits. This proves to be my workplace miracle!

Ever since that tender moment, thanks to Dick Baker, thanks to one person believing in me, I've shattered perceived limits again and again.

Simply believe in yourself and your power. Then do what you must to createrepparttar 123660 conditions and circumstances you desire. That's all it takes.
