is there something wrong with me?
i admit freely that if i want something, i get it. knock on wood that this continues to happen; i know it will because i want it to... ; )
some of you are reading that and rolling your eyes, condemning me, huffing and thinking that that is a bold and spoiled statement, but a very true statement. just ask thomas. i, of course, find nothing wrong with this.
the whole point of this is the following: there are books out there on the market right now that explain how you too can have everything you want. the only reason i am aware of these books is due to my drive in to the office the other morning.
i find it silly that people should spend there money on something that i can explain to you for free. you want to know the secret?
it's called motivation.
i know. calm down, you are completely blown away by my brilliance. but buying a book is no sign of motivation. nor is it a step closer to getting what you want. what gets you what you want is saying, "what do i have to do to get what i want?" and guess what? you have to then do it.
i don't care what it is you want, you have to go out and do it. it's that simple. if you fail along the way, then you adjust the plan, reevaluate, and figure out what you have to do now to get what you want. and if you fail again, then you keep doing it.
and here is the important part about always getting what you want, so pay attention, if you give up, for any reason, any reason at all, then you never really wanted it in the first place. maybe, just maybe, you didn't know what you wanted to begin with. there are always moments that you look back and think, why did i want that? there are consequences, and reevaluations, and minor failures. but if you really want something, then go get it.
this works for a cup of coffee and a donut too.

You may be onto something. But can you teach me how to buy and sell foreclosed homes with no money? I didn't think so.
Happy Belated Birthday!
lainey brings up an excellent point here. and my response to her was, "yes, i can but it is not legal." and people there are consequences to illegal.
some illegal is fun. some is not.
