in this world.... one is always working on bettering themselves.
my goals include
Patience.
I think i do pretty well with this one. sometimes I will admit to slipping, but as a whole. I am pretty constant. still.....a work in progress
Gratitude.
Mom always made sure we said thank you. a million times it seemed when we were kids. but i did learn that you can't really say that one enough. everyone likes to hear it. I try to say it always. i'll try to say it more.
Acceptance.
for everything and every one. people are who they are. I can like them, or I can not. but I must accept them. as they are. Faults and the good bits This goal needs constant tending. its easy to forget.
Happiness
Overall I think I am happy person. I dont often find myself in a bad or foul mood. but i think this could be the whole world's goal. everyone could be happier.
Motivated.
I have goals in my head, about myself, about my life, about everything. sometimes I find I don't have the motivation needed to get them rolling. its getting them rolling thats the hard part. but once rolling... it would be so much easier to accomplish.
I feel that if i accomplish these, i won't need to work as hard, because things will just fall into place.
I tried, I am trying. I will try harder.

Some people try to make bread by mixing flour, water, salt and baking soda and putting it in the oven. They end up with a product in the pan, but it falls short of expectations.
Adding yeast to the batch changes everything !
Alot of people prepare for their Life desires in the same manner.
They have a dream and great reasons to have it come about. They even have some plans for what it's going to take to materialize. Then they throw all this into their oven, set the timer and wait. And wait. Wondering why the results are falling short of their expectations.
The ingredient that is missing in their batch, is like yeast - it is the sole assurance of the Rising factor. It's what gives it uplifting form and shapes it into Reality.
The missing ingredient for most people, other than the 4% who come close to living their dreams, is a powerfully magic constituent called 'Conviction'.
I call Conviction a constituent, because constituents serve to compose, they have the power to frame and alter, hold authority to assemble - all things that support the dream.
What does Conviction mean in this context ? (This beautiful word always, always deserves capitalization in text) It means that once the preparation is done, that there is no way out. Absoultely no turning back. Move forward or die ! We arrive at the destined shoreline, then burn our ships! It means the goals are specific and written down, as are the perceived benefits of the objective vividly imagined. LEAVING THE IDEAS ONLY IN OUR HEADS IS THE MOST COMMON MISTAKE FOR MOST. Until they are on paper, they are still an illusion. People miss the point and the power of having the goals and plans in a tangible form.
It is like the difference between thinking about walking into a field on a sunny day and daydreaming as you watch the sky VS. strolling through tall sweet green-yellow grass,sunshine caressing your face, hearing the bees nearby and crows in the distance; feeling the crunch underfoot, then listening to the breeze swish the tall stocks in a sea of unison, as you lay on your back on Natures's bed, framing your visions of white fluff gliding across the royal blue with fragrances waltzing in perfect time.
One can surely see the difference. One of them is an actual experience of the senses. As are plans and goals and motivations that possess Conviction and hold-in-my-hand form. Bringing Conviction into the realm, kicks open the doors of potentiality and reveals the real in-your-face of Probability.
