Prosperity via The Road Less Traveled

Do you realize how remarkable you are? I know you're the kind of person who seeks to improve your life, and because of that, I also know you're swimming upstream, against the flow of mediocrity. That's uncommon; do you realize how uncommon you are? Don’t let yourself get discouraged, because even the minor shifts in your thinking that you make today will be reflected in your realities soon enough.

Stuff happens. When it does, the masses react. People like you stop and choose their thoughts on purpose. It isn’t easy, but it's worth it. Here’s a test to see how you really think:

Think about where your mind is most of the time. Is it thinking about what happened last week, or what you’d like to see happen today? Is it thinking about what next week will look like? Next month? Next year? What about ten years from now? All of these increments are important to consider, no doubt. But where is most of your mind energy spent?

As Keith Cameron Smith points out in his book, “The Top 10 Distinctions Between Millionaires and the Middle Class” he says, “Very poor people think day-to-day. Poor people think week-to-week. Middle-class people think month-to-month. Rich people think year-to-year. And very rich people think decade-to-decade.”

If you feel discouraged, it could be because you're stuck... discouraged by the pothole in the road at your feet, and could use some help seeing the reward at the end of that same road. I'm here to help you shift your thinking. Learn how to see your challenge differently today, so that you literally start yourself on a more prosperous path.

Each day, you are at a "road diverging". Which path will you take? Will you continue on, discouraged, or will you consciously make a choice to press forward with a new outlook? Choosing your thoughts according to the 7 Laws of Success is a very proactive way of taking the road less traveled. As Robert Frost points out, taking the less traveled road makes all the difference.

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth

Then took the other as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet, knowing how way leads onto way
I doubted if I should ever come back

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence
Two roads diverged in a wood
And I took the one less traveled by
And that has made all the difference

Robert Frost

hi Leslie!
Do not follow where the path may lead go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
This is a quote from:

Once when I was complaining about one of my children wanting to sleep in my room every night my very wise grandmother would tell me... "If it doesn't matter in five (or ten) years, it probably won't matter now". This advice helps me so much when I find myself putting "blinders" on an focusing on the problem right before me. If we take off the blinders of right-here-right-now and see our problem from a broader perspective it is much less worrisome or time-consuming.
