3 Simple Rules In Life
1. If you do not GO after what you want, you’ll never have it. Be honest with yourself, there is no limousine pulling up to your door to whisk you away to that new job, to millions of dollars, or a new life. It’s up to you to make it happen.
2. If you do not ASK, the answer will always be NO. It doesn’t hurt to ask. You will be pleasantly surprised sometimes when the answer is Yes. If the answer is NO, ask what you need to do to make it YES.
3. If you do not STEP FORWARD, you’ll always be in the same PLACE. When volunteers are requested, or you see an opportunity to do something challenging, take that chance. You will not only be glad you did, you will grow in many directions because of it.
