The Fight For Self III

[CT1118]

I want the map I use to be the map which I make. I want to be the man I know is in me and always was. I want to be better because I am better - better for you, better for my son, better for others, better for my self, better because I...AM...BETTER. I want my actions to meet my words - they will, I will, and self will.

CT, If I can make a suggestion, print this statement out and keep it with you. I think it will have an incredible impact on you going forward. I did that with a post that someone had sent me and it was amazing how many times it enabled me to just reach for strength that I didn't know I had in me. I think you can take this paragraph and post it on every newcomers wall as the newcomer's mantra.

mulesqb - honestly, you said so many great things which work, provoked thought, provoked smile. I will. I intended to do so today until I had a few personnel issues at work which ate my day up. But this was great advice, I will do this.

Speaking of work, not sure I have mentioned it, don't recall, time spent on the DB forum - if you work the program, you will get better at work too (I mean, I was already really great at what I do, which is why more work gets piled on me, the good horse does not stay in the stall - but, that is work sometimes). Just thought I would mention it. I mean ideally, the program gets you better at most things in your life, so...pay attention new people.

Awesome and inspirational from both of you. CT, you, as always have a great grasp on yourself and where you are in your journey.

"...inspirational from both of you" ^^^^ thanks It0402, I appreciate you saying this. I thought this was an important point you made in case anyone just new to the forum comes across this stuff above. In order to receive, you have to give back effort and honesty.

Any chance we can get you to run for president?

I accept the people's nomination:
