Yesterday my teenage daughter made a plate of chocolate chip cookies. You know the kind. The ones that are soft and gooey with tons of chocolate chips. This is a weakness of mine (along with a few others). But as I said yesterday in my blog I am trying really hard to just say no. Every time I passed that plate of cookies I thought, well maybe just one. But, I know me, just one will turn into just two, and then just three, till I finish the plate. So I just said no and every time I did I visualized my goal of being thin. I saw myself in my minds eye at my goal weight., and I never ate the cookie. That is the magic of self discipline. If you know what your goal is and you consistently take action steps to getting there you will most definitely arrive. So if you think that promotion is impossible or the job you want is out of your reach figure out what steps you need to get there and by doing these steps you will surely get your hearts desire. The magic is in doing the steps even when you are tired, discouraged, or just plain don’t want to. Yet you just do it one step at a time and sure enough you reach your goal.
