I feel successful and I let go of all obstacles that stand in my way.

I am a success!

Each day I allow myself the luxury of enjoying the good feelings that come with my achievements.

I am also confident that I can overcome every challenge.

Rather than bemoan an issue, I seek solutions and take decisive action to continue moving forward toward my goals.

To ensure my success in any endeavor, I divide my goal into attainable steps and then take action immediately to build momentum.

As I complete each step, I reward myself.

I feel good about it and proud of myself for accomplishing a necessary task that puts me closer and closer to my goal.

It doesn’t matter if the task was small or if it only took a few minutes to complete it.

A success is a success no matter how you look at it!

So I feel good about my achievements and I let it bring me the confidence to move forward.

When an obstacle raises its head, I tackle it immediately.

Perhaps there is a way I can simply sidestep this challenge and move on.

Perhaps it is really bringing me the opportunity to find a better way to get to my goal.

Whatever the challenge, I seek a solution of action steps that keep me moving forward, even if there is a detour along the way.

Today, I choose to complete at least one action step toward an important goal and celebrate my success so I can look forward to doing the same again tomorrow.

What successes, large or small, can you celebrate today?

What action steps can you take to overcome a current challenge?

In everything I do, success is my goal.

July 7, 2019March 25, 2018

I find it easy to make progress with each step that I take.

I have a simple strategy that keeps me on track.

All it takes is a little time for planning, and my success is nearly assured!

So I take the time to make my plan and know that each day I am making forward progress toward my goals.

When I set a goal, I divide it into a series of mini-goals.

Then I figure out specific action steps that will enable me to accomplish each task quickly and effectively.

Each step I take moves me forward a little closer to victory!

In my planner, I schedule time every day to work on at least one of my mini-goals.

Every small task completed is worthy of celebration! I congratulate myself and bask in my victory.

These good feelings encourage me to dive right into the next task because I have momentum on my side.

My action plan is a map of my journey toward my goal.

Each task I complete is another step closer to my destination.

I may make a detour now and again, but with my plan, I always find my way back to my route.

Today, I choose success by taking the time to create my detailed plan of action steps, and then I schedule at least one small step for each day in my planner.

How have you divided your goals into action steps that will get you to where you want to be?

How can you schedule some time each day to further your goals?

I forgive myself for my mistakes. I am human.

Mistakes are inevitable and I accept that.

I know that I make mistakes every now and then, just as everyone else does.

After all, no one is perfect!

I let go of any temptation to beat myself up about it and, instead, I move on.

First of all, I admit my mistakes and forgive myself.

Then I focus on what I can do to lessen its impact.

I do what I can to make up for my gaffes.

If I need to apologize, I make a sincere apology and ask if there is something I can do to make things right.

If I need to do something over, I start it immediately.

If I neglected to do something I was supposed to, I do it.

Then, I look for the silver lining. What can I learn from this mistake?

Mistakes always teach me something and enable me to grow.

Oftentimes, a little mistake brings solutions to light that I never thought of before.

It reminds me of something Thomas Edison said when he was experimenting with the light bulb.

He said, “I learned a thousand ways of how not to make a light bulb.”

The point is: each mistake we make brings us one step closer to success.

I realize that the term “mistake” is not synonymous with the term “bad.” I look creatively at my mistakes.

I seek opportunities to create positive outcomes from my slip-ups.

Today, I choose to have an optimistic attitude about my mistakes and find something positive about each one.

How often do you get angry with yourself when you make a mistake?

What can you learn from a recent mistake?

I joyfully anticipate doing things out of the ordinary.

I look forward to doing things out of the ordinary because I know that, by going outside of my comfort zone, I am equipping myself for a brighter future.

My past prepares me for the future, but I let go of the idea that what I have gone through previously will dictate my fate.

I let go of the fear that has kept me repeating the same patterns over and over and, instead, I reach for something new and better!

I recognize that the path is not always straight and clearly lit.

I let go of the idea that I must be able to see every eventuality before I start out.

If I can see the step in front of me, that is enough.

This is frightening at times, yet I let go of the idea that I should be able to branch out without nervousness.

Jitters – and even outright fear – are inevitable when I step into unfamiliar territory.

I do not berate myself for my anxiety; instead, I merely make the choice to step out anyway, to push on through any fear I may feel.

I know that life is full of opportunities for growth, creativity, and happiness, but I must take the initiative to reach for them.

I do so eagerly, despite my hesitancy, because I crave a depth of richness and fulfillment that is only available to me.

I am willing to let go of my past, so I can enjoy the gifts of a new world of experiences.

How have you been allowing your past to decide your future?

What risks do you need to take in order to reach for a deeper and richer life?

I keep myself moving forward.

I have many tools in my toolbox that I can use to keep myself heading toward my goals.

The ones I use most often are my action plan success strategy, affirmations, self-reflection, and time management.

My action plan success strategy sets me up for victory.

I take the time to divide my goals into small steps that I know will get me to my destination.

In my plan, each task that I complete brings me one step closer toward the achievement of my goals.

Part of my strategy that keeps me motivated is that I celebrate every success, no matter how small.

Every time I complete a task in my action plan, I reward myself.

I allow myself to feel good about it and I look forward to completing the next task to continue my success.

Positive affirmations help keep me focused on my goals and banish thoughts of self-doubt.

I repeat affirmations to myself at least twice each day and again each time I need a boost to my confidence.

Self-reflection also helps me move forward.

When I reflect, I visualize living my dreams as if it’s happening in the present.

I experience it with all my senses and feel the wonderful emotions of being there. It motivates me to make my dreams a priority.

Lastly, my time management skills bring everything together.

I consciously put time in my schedule for making my action plan, working on my tasks every day, and reflecting about myself.

Everything works together seamlessly with good time management!

Today, I plan to use my time effectively to keep myself moving forward toward my goal, allowing time for goal planning, completing action steps, and self-reflection.

How have you taken the time to create your plan of action steps?

What motivates you to do what is necessary to achieve your dreams?
