After over four decades of providing and leading many hundreds of personal development, self-help, and personal growth, seminars, and programs, I have come to believe firmly, if you hope to be as fulfilled and happy as possible, it is up to you, because, you must, proactively, do all you can, to help, create, a SELF, which maximizes the possibilities, and options, and reduces personal stresses, and tensions!
In other words, it’s up – to – you! So, with that in mind, this article will attempt to briefly, consider, examine, review, and discuss, using the mnemonic approach, what this means and represents, and why it should matter to you if you hope to be the best, you can be, and more fulfilled, and self – satisfied!
1. Strengths/ stronger; solutions; serving; sustainable:
Each of us have some strengths, as well as weaknesses! Becoming better means using every area of power to make you better and more robust while proactively, realistically, addressing every weakness! Consider many options and alternatives, and focus on those who will best serve you, serving your self-interests, in a positive, productive way! Carefully consider addressing real and perceived current issues, and obstacles and how to beat proceed with a sustainable, viable plan and course of action!
2. Excellence; endurance; enrich; efforts:
Too often, people seek the perceived path of least resistance, accepting the self-imposed limitations of their comfort zone, and consider, good – enough, an acceptable approach! If you want to serve yourself, however, you must demand your utmost degree of personal excellence because, while it may be more challenging to do, in the longer run, it is almost always the best approach! This takes endurance, persistence, and a genuine desire to enrich your existence! How one uses his efforts and their quality often differentiates the happiest, most fulfilled individuals from the rest – of – – pack!
3. Listen; learn; lessons; leading:
Each of us must believe in ourselves and proceed, with self-love, because if you don’t care deeply, no one else will, either! Commit to listening effectively and learning from every conversation and experience to gain true expertise and, hopefully, maximize your judgment and wisdom!
4. Face facts; fate; fruition; future; furnish:
Avoid lying to yourself and resorting to wearing rose-colored glasses, but face the facts with an open – mind, and emphasize the best way to equip yourself, the best – possible life! Taking this responsibility, and bringing the best paths to fruition, ensure you, of the best – possible chance, for a better – future! You must take responsibility for your fate!
Why will some procrastinate, instead of doing, everything possible to help your SELF? It’s up to you!
