Be Ready to Win!! -Daily Word May 26, 2011

Be Ready to Win!! -Daily Word May 26, 2011
Posted By: Ash Cash on May 26, 2011


Happy Victorious Thursday!! Today's Daily Word is dedicated to Winning!! Fact: If you Google'd the word "Winning" right now, the first thing that pops up is a picture Charlie Sheen. I did not really follow what was going on with Mr. Sheen at the time but from my understanding he got caught doing drugs, was fired from a show, began a comedy career and somehow the word #TigerBlood came into the mix. I am no judge of man but his fiasco had everyone and their grandmothers saying that they are winning! From Twitter, to Facebook, to the blogs and traditional media! Winning had now been reduced to a word that people just said arbitrarily! "I got fired" Winning!! "I hate my job" Winning!! The point that I am trying to make is this..... Yes! Thoughts become things...



Yes! Words have power! But these are just the beginning! There is a lot of hard work and follow through that has to be done in order to truly Win!! Just claiming victory isn't enough! Are you honestly doing everything in your power to secure the win? Make sure that on your road to success that you are preparing yourself for what you truly want!! Our expectations and what we prepare for is what we will get out of life! Idleness, wishing on a star, or simply hoping for the best are not going to cut it!! Practice your craft! Understand what you need to do to get better! then Relentlessly give your self to the world!! Trending topics are cool but remember.....Winning is a habit that is gained by hard work and dedication!!! PUT IN THE WORK AND GET READY TO WIN!!
