No Doubts – You Can Do It!
By Mike Brescia
Have you ever thought “What would happen if I just let go of all
the sorrow, pain and anger – just let it go?” I recently read a
short story about Reba McIntire’s life. I gained a whole new
appreciation for her. If you’re not familiar with her, she’s sold
more country music records than any woman in history.
Her first marriage was very painful. Just one example of the
things she endured was her husband’s demand that if they had any
children, she’d have to quit singing because he wasn’t going to
change any diapers. Imagine a guy who’s got a wife who makes tens
of millions of dollars, and he wants her to quit because he won’t
help with the kids. Schmuck…
He never made her feel like she did anything important. But she
never gave in to the treatment she got from him. Instead, after 11
years of marriage, she divorced him. That was 1987. Since then,
she’s done more in her industry than anyone before her.
You see, you don’t have to give in to your challenges. Use them to
make you stronger. Look at the nay-sayers and tell them they’re
wrong. Use their criticism to feed your determination… When
someone tells you that you can’t, double your efforts. They’re
probably wrong. And if the worst thing happens, if you think you
can’t…be intelligent. Make sure you’re not climbing a mountain
that no one could scale. But if it’s doable and if you have the
resources, or if you can get them… Then get rid of the doubt.
Say “I can do it.” Continue reading “No Doubts- You Can Do It!” »
