Article Directory :: Self-Improvement/Motivation Articles Never Limit Your Future Copyright © 2012 Elisha Burke Republish: EasyPublish™ Published: 18Jul2005 Word count: 357 Viewed: 352 time(s) Get Free Content For Your Site Never limit you future by the shape of your past. This time-worn truism is still around for a good reason. We still need to be reminded of that, especially as we move forward with our goals, whatever they may be. Never limit your future by the shape of past. As I thought about that statement I realized that history bears witness to many who have overcome horrible pasts and moved on to be very successful in their lives. Many of our current heroes and heroines have overcome poverty, child abuse, serious illness and disabilities to become successful in their chosen fields of endeavor. I am reminded of successful people like Oprah Winfrey, Dolly Parton, the late Ray Charles, Loretta Lynne, President William J. Clinton and many others. All of them overcame great obstacles to achieve the success that was in them. Overcoming one's past to achieve success is not limited to those who achieve great fame or fortune, but to everyday people like you and me. Each of us likely has something in our past that could have prevented us from getting to where we are now. If you are reading this article you already have a history of achievement. If you don't believe me, think about the many thousands of Americans that are functionally illiterate (not able to read and understand the average newspaper article). Since you are able to read this, you are able to achieve many other things in your life. You are likely reading this because you have an interest in starting or maintaining a profitable online business. I may be slow-going, but do not give up too soon. Often, we give up when on the verge of success because we cannot see what is ahead. Have enough faith in yourself and what you are doing to prepare as best you can for success. Learn from others by reading about how they became successful. Follow the paths of successful people. If possible, find a mentor. I also suggest you subscribe to a few good E-zines to help you sort through and find the best resources to help you. Dr. J. E.
