Winning at life is as simple as ABC

Winning in life or anything else is like baking a cake if you have a good recipie then you will get great results if you follow it. I have a poster hanging on my wall for years that I used to quiz the kids on and still try to create action based on the list that is presented in alphabetical order.

Here is my take on the ABCs of life.

A  Avoid negative people, things and habits.
This is your chance to nurture your dream. In the begining it is very easy to squash your dreams with one negative moment. You can never know if that was the one thing that would change your life forever. Simply avoid the negative.  I am not advocating pie in the sky wishing, keep your eyes open and feet firmly on the ground.

B Begin today, yesterday is a regret and tommorrow may never come.

C Control yourself, your space and your time. If you do not, someone will control them for you. Do not let your control go. It is horribly hard to get control again once it is given away.
