I love the Serenity Prayer. It goes like this:
- Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.
I repeat it out loud almost every day as it reminds me of where my power really is.
As an achievement specialist, I wanted to create a similar prayer focused on goals. It goes like this:
- I have the ability to achieve success; the humility to let go of what I cannot do, and the will to actually do the rest!
Perhaps not quite as poetic as the Serenity Prayer, but it makes me smile and moves my butt!
Action – What saying inspires you? Hang the quote up where you’ll see it often. Take a few moments each day and allow the words to refocus and recharge you.
Hey, maybe you’re a poet and don’t even know it!
