Be: (positive confession) I Am a Bridge Builder.

Inspiration: “… by stretching yourself beyond your perceived level of confidence you accelerate your development of competence.” Michael Gelb
Be: (positive confession) I Am an Accelerator.
Do: (first steps) Today, be aware that competence in any skill requires we progress through certain stages of development. We go from incompetent and unconfident to unconfident and partially competent, and finally to confident and competent. There is no short cut and you are not alone. So do as the Marines say “love the rope” and go through the discomfort knowing it will produce results in you.
Have: (making dreams reality) As I accept that growth is accompanied by discomfort for everyone and willingly go forward anyway, without procrastinating, I will have the end result I desire sooner than later.
Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life! God Bless You!

Be: (positive confession) I Am a Can-do person.
Do: (first steps) Today, instead of looking for excuses not to do something like eat right, exercise, study, read instead of watch television, spend quality time with my spouse and children, invest my money, give to a worthy charity, etc.; find a way to make those positive actions happen.
Have: (making dreams reality) As I recognize no one and nothing has the right to hinder me from doing what I am called to do even though there will always be obstacles to personal improvement, once I develop a no-matter-what attitude I will succeed no matter what life brings my way.
