You may have a boss whom you respect.  You may have a partner and/or fmaily who's advice you've been known to take on occasion.  You may have friends who's views tend to make sense.  You may meet strangers who tell you a story that ignites sparks in your mind. Then, there's you.

• If someone tells you they don't believe in you, you can still choose to believe in yourself. 
• If someone tells you that your dreams aren't possible, then you can choose to disagree. 
• If someone tells you they'd advise you against your choices, you can say it's your prerogative.
• If someone tells you that you'll never achieve your desire, then you can prove them wrong.
• If someone tells you you're too lazy to make it, you can act to reveal selective blindness.
• If someone tells you you'll never advance, you can decide for yourself how to move ahead.
• If someone aims to dissuade you from a vision, learn to listen to your heart and go for it!
• If someone tells you that you'll never feel happy, tap into you untapped resources inside.
• If someone tells you they think you'll never change, remind yourself the verdict isn't yet in.
• If you've never listed affirmations before, its never too late to start meaningful, new things.
