“Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow. It empties today of its strength.”

—C o r r i e T e n B o om

“You suffer more in your imagination than in reality.”— S e n e c a

“No amount of anxiety makes any difference to anything that is going to happen.”

—Al a n Wat t s

Almost all your anxieties, stress, worries are of your own making.

Your mind and imagination are running wild. You control

your thoughts. You control your mood. Preparation is a powerful

antidote. The more prepared you are the more your stress and worry

morphs into excitement. There is nothing to be nervous about if you

are prepared. Who cares what other people think. Let go of that.

What difference does it make? Be calm. Be cool. Be collected. Be

the calm person in the room when things get tough. Be confident

(not overconfident). Fear is an excellent motivator. A little fear is

good. Fear helps keep you in check. Reminds you that you are quite

alive. However, you cannot let your fear (or anger) control you. 

You control your thoughts. You control how you “feel.” You control how

you react. You control what you do. Focus on what you can control

and stop worrying about what you cannot control. Stop fretting over

all the what ifs? Sometimes you can be your own worst enemy when

you let your fear and anxiety get the better of you.

TOMORROW

 

“Never wait for tomorrow, what if tomorrow never comes?”

—E l v i s P r e s l e y

Tomorrow never comes because it is always today. Tomorrow

will be today. Once you get to tomorrow, it is called the present.

Now. Yesterday and tomorrow are illusions because it is always

today. So, start today. Magical things will happen. A goal or action

which is postponed until “tomorrow” is often never accomplished.

Do it today. Anything you do in life requires a start so start today

because tomorrow never comes.

DAY BY DAY

                                                 

“Day by day, what you think and what you do is who you become.”

 --He r a c l i t u s

I often wonder if I went out in the backyard each day with a shovel

and dug out one shovel of dirt and placed it on a pile, after a month

how deep would the hole be? How high would the pile be? After a

year? Five years? Ten Years? Twenty years? Fifty? Some days would

be easier than others, scooping out a shovel of soft dirt that comes

right out. Other days would be more difficult, striking hardened

ground or rocks and you must put maximum effort, use different

tools, or even get help just to shovel out the same amount of soil that

came out so easily just the day before. It may be raining. It could

be snowing. It is hot outside. It is cold outside. I do not feel like it

today. How is that process any different than everyday life? If you

skip days, you make no progress. Your pile does not grow. Your hole

is no deeper and may fill in, or your pile may recede. If you give up

and abandon your hole and pile the hole will fill in and your pile will

disappear.

Jaime Jackson Safety Blog: CONSISTENCY

CONSISTENCY

                                                 

“The rarest of human qualities is consistency.” — J e r e m y B e n t h a m

You are not defined by a singular moment, good or bad,

triumphant or total failure, a single lapse in judgment, one

shining moment, a lucky break, one win, one defeat does not define

your true character. What then defines your character of stone?

Consistency. You are the sum of your actions. True greatness derives

from patience coupled with a pattern of longstanding, steadfastly

doing the right thing in the moment repeatedly without fail. You

may stray. Exercise poor judgment every now and then, but over the

long haul your track record should be overwhelmingly glaring with

consistent steadfast work and virtuous judgments of always doing

the right thing in the moment.

Dependable. Trustworthy. A sterling reputation. These are all

traits you must strive for, but how do you get there? Consistency

is key. It may be boring. Not flashy. It is remarkably difficult to

maintain, but steadfast judgment and a pattern of consistency are

admirable qualities that at the end of the day will land you exactly

where you need to be. Overnight success is the culmination of years

of pounding away at your craft. Snap judgments, impulses, jealousy,

envy, frustration all will lead you down a bad road. Be there in

good and bad times, not just when it happens to be convenient for you. 

You are the sum of your actions. True, consistent, steadfast

judgment takes patience. You know the right direction and down

which path you must go. A steady continuity will keep you free from

contradiction and bring you harmony.
