AYD - April 8, 2013 - Dear Failure...

"Dear Failure,
What if I told you the sacrifices I make to compete are victory in itself?  What if I did not measure my success by wins and losses, but by my will, my triumph over slumber, my focus to prepare, and my courage to contend?

What if I told you I win every morning my eyes open?

Failure, you will not triumph over me because
I'm Possible."

Opportunity Monday.
Inspiration can find you anywhere, as long as you are open to it.
Today, in an MMA magazine.  Yesterday in a vision of a mother and child laughing together.  The week before in a simple newspaper article in a section I normally do not read.

Write a short letter.
Write it to your boss, your friend, yourself or even to a fear and state of mind... like Failure.
Say what you want to say.  Say what you feel when words escape you at times you "shoulda, woulda, coulda".

Get the point across, even if just for you to stop the point from draining your energy.

Get it out - release the weight.  Keep the letter, or destroy it - up to you;  but mark your statement.

Grab your words, post your flag, and Proudly proclaim, " I hereby claim this day!"

Dear Failure... thanks for coming out...sorry you didn't make the team.

Good morning, great day.  Great you, a better day for everyone else.
