Stress

If the high pressure of demands on you

produce a storm – instead of results
and if the forecast is: More of the same
It is time to stop – Stand back – Chill out
Stress can rule your life
but only if you let it
Let your brain relax
re
and a book – listen to music
walk the dog – play golf – dig the garden
run till you tire – go fly a kite 
do absolutely anything
or nothing at all!
whatever it takes to calm the storm
…..and the Sun will shine
and you will manage
whatever it is you have to do
much better – much faster
than when you had to fight against stress
as well as
everything else!

Ladder of success

The route to success is not always
a series of rungs on a ladder
tried and tested and perfectly spaced
for easy climbing!
You may have to spend quite some time
placing it in the right position
Carrying it from one level to the next
and even then you may find
some rungs are broken
and
others are completely missing!
Eventually you will probably
have to leave it behind altogether
for newer more advanced
methods of upward motion
In fact
When you do succeed
you can rest assured
you will have earned it!

If at first

It may take a while
It may take your whole life
But I do believe
There is nothing you can not do
if you really want to
and anyway – If everyone gave up
after trying something only once
where would we be?
If at first you don’t succeed, try,
try again!

Making it

Life can sometimes seem a bit complicated!
Getting what you want out of Life
and getting to where you want to be
can seem very far away
…..There is no exact Starting Line
because in the beginning someone else
is making your decisions
and making ‘your’ voice heard
can be frustrating
…..There is no Finish Tape to aim for
because it may end suddenly
or continue past expectation
So planning ahead is not an easy task
We arrive in this world
with different social circumstances
and different skills
But remember circumstances can change
and skills can be learned
Making the most of what you have
is always helpful
If you have made poor choices in the past
remember that is exactly where they are
in the past
‘You’ can make different choices anytime
and change the direction of ‘your’ Life
If Life is everything you ever expected
Be happy – every day
The point is to enjoy the journey!!!
Your future is yours and yours alone
and MAKING IT
is the adventure we call ‘Life’

No more 9-5

No more clocking up the hours
or clocking up the miles
No more Rush-hour there
or Rush-hour back
No more Flexi-time late nights
or early starts 
No more targets
Rules or new Regulations
The last few days – the last few miles…
The rush is finally over!
No more – ‘Living by the clock’
From now on  Freedom
From now on
only ‘Living!’

Link words – Retirement

Freedom

We live among others
We abide by the rules
We are limited by our circumstances
Personal Freedom to do
and think and feel
as you yourself alone would like
Is very difficult to find
and even more difficult to keep
So when you do find freedom
to be truly who you are
Even in a single place or time
Treasure it!

Nothing succeeds like success

Nothing succeeds like success
The difference between
‘Success’ and ‘Failure’ 
is only the level of expectation
Therefore by definition
Success IS for everyone!
To start:
Choose your goal
Success breeds Success they say
so to build confidence
start with an attainable goal
– Get ready –
then
Give it your very best effort
Enjoy the challenge
and everything you might learn
along the way
Celebrate your success
when you achieve each goal
If you keep going
you never know
you might just surprise yourself
and realise all
your most cherished dreams
The drawing above is just a suggestion
of what you might meet along the way
For the purposes of this drawing
I have included as many eventualities
as would fit
using the following imagery………
The GET READY line represents
those ready to Start
by having prepared for it
according to their personal attributes
The ladders represent progress
towards their ultimate Success
The platforms
represent what they achieve
and what they might need along the way
At the top
Their ultimate goal!
LUCK, FATE, DESTINY etc.
are scattered along their way
just as they are in Life
GET READY
We do not all start with the same talents,
resources or physical attributes
So to fulfil your potential
use all your assets
make the most of what you’ve got
It does not matter whether you are
learning to fly a jet
or learning to write the alphabet
Whether you are starting
your own small business 
or consolidating
your first world wide conglomerate
Everyone starts at the beginning
Age is just as irrelevant
as what personal goal you choose
Your Personal Success can be achieved
no matter what talents,
resources or physical attributes you have
If you want it badly enough
Start with small steps
and keep going………….
P.S. Nobody said it was easy………
But it is definitely worth it!

Motivation

In ‘Life’ you take out what you put in!
There’s no such thing as a free lunch!
Life is not fair
and nobody said it was easy
