You Can Make Change Happen

Andrew Mathews wrote in his book, "Being Happy", quote: 'We decide on our own self-image- on our own worth and decide how much happiness to expect.' Yes, it is you who can decide to be either happy or not in your life. You can make the decision for yourself. Now what does this word 'decision' mean? 

Decision- it is basically that moment from where change can either occur or not. It is only You who can make use of this moment, only you can decide!

You can decide when to finish your pending assignments; the audit; the painting project etc. You can make that moment happen any time, all you need is to take that first step- the decision. For change to occur immediately, decide Now! Take action now and change it, whether its a bad habit like smoking or nail biting or an incomplete hard and unmanageable task. Think You Can and You are Right!

In order to motivate yourself, think of it like this: In life there are only results, in other words, outcome is the fact of life, the rest is just an illusion. If a goal does not generate an outcome or result, then it is just a mere fantasy. As Anthony Robbins puts it, "what good is inspiration if it is not backed up by action?"

All goals must be backed up with some form of action as 'desire is not enough', and mere desire cannot make things happen. Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah did not only have a desire for the Muslims of the subcontinent to live freely but it was his goal. He proved to us that a goal can happen if it is backed up by action.

In order to accomplish your goal and make that change happen you must act and work towards that goal, consistently as "persistence overshadows talent".

But another important thing is that the outcome may not be as you had expected. This does not mean that you failed to accomplish your result- You have an outcome but its a different one. There is no such thing as failure, 'there are only results'. Now with this different outcome, there would be equally other opportunities related with this outcome if only you think of it optimistically. Whatever you are doing, you are doing it for your happiness- that is the ultimate goal which can also be achieved with different outcomes. Once you decide to happily accept and receive the different outcomes given to you by the universe, all that you want will happen automatically.
