All of us have dreams.  Some people fear failure so much they are afraid to allow themselves to dream again, yet struggle with their lack of direction.  Choose to live to your fullest every day by keeping your dreams alive, setting goals to reach those dreams, and supporting yourself and those around you with positive affirmations.

Which affirmations do you identify with? Find several that you like and write them on an index card and keep them with you, looking at them here and there throughout the day. You can also create screen savers so that your affirmations are constantly in front of you at your desk or on your cell phone.

Repeat affirmations every day and they will start to become a part of who you are. You will see the needle on your goals dashboard start to shift, and find yourself sticking to your goals throughout the days, months, and year.
