Wisdom On The Web
These top 200 secrets of success in life might be quite “old-fashioned”. Yet, many of them can still be applied and will provide great outcomes for a successful life. I’ll leave it for you to choose which you will use and which ones you might want to tweak to suit your life or which to leave altogether.
Life Power Tip
Chunk your large goals into manageable steps. Sometimes we procrastinate on beginning a new project simply because it is so large that it scares the heck out of us. Break it into small, manageable action steps. “Take the first step in faith. You do not have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.” -Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. then…. “Vision is not enough, it must be combined with venture. It is not enough to stare up the steps, we must step up the stairs.” -Vaclav Havel
Action
Drop in and visit a friend, unannounced.
Challenge
Consciously eliminate the rat-race mentality.
Quote
Do not be hard like a rock, be soft like water. Ultimately the soft wins over the hard. Be like water, soft, flowing, at ease. The hardness inside will eventually be reduced to sand, and the rock will completely disappear. -Lao Tzu
Clearing
Clean and store well, your garden tools.
Question
Do you know who you are, or do you take another’s word for it?
Affirmation
I choose to feel more and more competent.

More inspired self improvement every day!
It’s difficult to be inspired if you’re stuck in a negative state. Inspiration is not just a flash of vision, it’s a motivation that births creativity.
People who get inspired are usually the ones more eager to jump into a project and stick with it. Inspired people have greater confidence not to doubt themselves.
Every day, seek out personal moments of clarity, increasing your awareness of new possibilities that surround you. The following tools will help.

Sometimes, you’ll find me recommending or presenting the same product(s) more than one time.
When repeating a training or using a tool that I’ve used or come across before, often I’ll “see” something brand new or have a fresh insight/perspective, that I might not have picked up on earlier. In that moment, perhaps I am finally “ready” to REALLY hear and receive its message or lesson.
It is not unlike seeing a movie for the second time and realizing that I’d not remembered seeing a particular scene, from the first viewing. As Nelson Mandela once said…
“There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.”
When you see something that has already been presented to you once before, then I invite you to revisit it anyhow.
Give up any judgement about whether it is “good” or “bad”. It JUST IS and you are alive, so you’re in luck. You get to choose, again!
I love these words from Gelett Burgess…
“If in the last few years you haven’t discarded a major opinion or acquired a new one, check your pulse. You may be dead.”
Tens of thousands of people, from many countries & backgrounds, receive Forward Steps emails. Everyone is at different stages of their life journey, everyone is looking for different things and experiencing different things.
Some of us learn best by hearing, others are more visual and yet others love to gather information by reading. This makes for a phenomenal challenge, in satisfying everybody’s individual needs and preferences. Even should we assume “that nothing is impossible” – this challenge gives an awfully good impression of “impossible”!
We are all different. Seldom one solution fits all. I provide a vast array of resources (hundreds, in fact) to cater for a multi-dimensional audience and I always recommend you remember this quote…
Absorb what is useful, discard what is not and add what is uniquely your own. -Bruce Lee Share on XIn Lak’ech Ala K’in,
