THE DAILY SPARK

WATCH OUT…

Watch you thoughts for they become words.

Watch your words for they become actions.

Watch your actions for they become habits.

Watch your habits for they become character.

Watch your character for it becomes your destiny.

Quote by Lao Tzu – Chinese Philosopher from the 6th Century B.C.

REFLECTION:

  • Reflect on your thoughts, words, actions, habits?
  • Are you happy with your character?  Your destiny? 
  • Do you want to change your destiny?  Start with your thoughts.
  • What new thought can you embrace today?

CHOOSE YOUR DESTINY

No one is born accountable, self-reliant, self-mastered and resilient, yet these are the qualities that count, the ones that will fill you with confidence and afford you the chance to choose your destiny, no matter what your field of endeavor.

From: THE REALITY-BASED RULES OF THE WORKPLACE by Cy Wakeman

REFLECTION: 

  • Do you hold yourself accountable for your destiny?
  • Rate how self-reliant, self-mastered and resilient you are.
  • Is there room for improvement?  What will you start doing?

BE BETTER

When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better, too.

From: THE ALCHEMIST by Paul Coelho

REFLECTION:

  • Are you striving to become better?  In what ways?
  • What does better look like for you?
