Life Is More Than "Ups & Downs"!

For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? (Romans 8:24)

My friend, it is very easy to be swayed by circumstances and situations that surround you day to day; the secret to success is how you interpret and learn from them. One of the greatest truths I’ve learned over the years is that “you are what you think”.

You are able to create your own destiny simply by the things you think about. If your expectancy is to fail, then that is what you will probably do. If, however, you have absolute confidence that you are going to succeed then whatever “ups and downs” you experience you will interpret them as stepping-stones or a learning curve to your eventual success.

Create your own destiny.

If you are anything like me you have had your fair share of putdowns. Other people may have influenced your confidence, in most cases with negative consequences. You may have even self-sabotaged your own efforts because subconsciously you feel that you do not deserve success.

Examine your expectancy.

My friend, examine your own expectancy and determine exactly what it is that you think about yourself. The angels have been sent from the Lord to help build greater confidence in you because you have a greater destiny to fulfill. This is your season to develop the attitude of “if it’s going to be; it’s up to me.”

What I will be is up to me!
