I just finished watching the movie Miracle. Such an important movie. At the time of the Soviet - American Olympic hockey game, America was feeling negative and downtrodden. I see this attitude in our time now. The movie shows how if you are willing to work and if you believe you can do it, you can beat the odds. You can win. So true. The successful people aren't always the ones who are the smartest or most talented. They are the ones that do the work and feel they can do it. We are all so much more capable than we think we are. Our potential is astounding. We are the biggest barrier to success. We think the work is "too hard" or "I'm not good enough." We think there is a ceiling over us keeping us down, when the ceiling is really in our head. I'd love to see an America where we all do our best and work hard, not wait for success to drop in our lap. Where we all work in integrity instead of seeing what we can get away with. Where we are full of postitive energy instead of negative complaining. I see the future and it is grandPost a Comment
