How You Perceive Yourself.

We all dream of going back to our jobs one day as a best selling author, not having to wake up at certain hours, making our own time to work, and gloating? 

Well, maybe a little. At least to those who said you couldn't do it. 

But just going back and seeing what, or where, you came from--how far you've advanced. 

How you've achieved your goal. 

Thinking about that scenario, my imagination conjured up someone giving a seminar about self improvement. 

I imagined someone standing in front of a group, talking to them about how he/she made it, right from where the audience was sitting. 

Of course, this imaginary character had an inkling of what he was to become--knew where the road would lead. They wore it as though to become that goal, not the mere worker ant in a huge colony of worker ants. 

We can all do this, today. At our jobs. Anywhere. 

If you want to be a writer, you tell yourself you are one. 

Feel it. 

Walk around as though it is your life. 

Of course you're working the day job, but that's just to get by for now. You have more important things going on down the line. 

One day you will be a success. 

And until that day, you will think of yourself as one now. 

It's the age old adage think it and it will happen. I've touched on this before with a movie called The Secret. Great motivational stuff. 

What do you think? Do you walk around as though you are what you want to become? Or do you do your thing as a hobby and don't mind blending in with the herd?
