Wisdom from"Failing Forward" by John C. Maxwell

Good Morning Friends!

I hope and trust this post finds you all having a great day!

I usually don't post anything except for on Friday's however when reading "Failing Forward: Turning Mistakes into Stepping Stones for Success" by John C. Maxwell this morning, I was moved to share a couple of excerpts with all of you.
  • Contentment comes from having a positive attitude. It means
    • expecting the best in everything - not the worst.
    • remaining upbeat - even when you get beat up.
    • seeing solutions in every problem - not problems in every solution.
    • believing in yourself - even when others believe you've failed.
    • holding on to hope - even when others say it's hopeless.
  • Roger Crawford maintains, "Handicaps can only disable us if we let them. This is true not only of physical challenges, but of emotional and intellectual ones as well...I believe that real and lasting limitations are created in our minds, not our bodies."
I have learned that when my heart is stirred to share something someone other than me needs to hear it. As I walk in obedience to my Spirits leading by sharing, I trust this will reach whoever needs to hear these words today.

Please don't hesitate to contact me if there is ever anything I can do for you.

Have a great day.

Kevin
