We're the authors of the stories of our lives. In the words we use, in what we believe, we decide who we will become. Our words play crucial roles in our lives.
While I was back east in June, I happily went to four of my nephew's baseball games. One of the players on his team said something like, "We haven't gotten blown out yet." I suggested, "I'd delete that last word."
One day a chef here was receiving compliments. That person ventured, "Maybe I do know what I'm doing." I recommended, "I'd delete that first word." That person restated, "I do know what I'm doing!"
We start to believe our own idea of ourselves. Yet we can write our story so we succeed. Our success begins with what we believe. Give some thought to what you believe, since it will determine where you end up.
