This shirt got me thinking. The word BELIEVE has been eve present in my life. My belief in myself, a higher power, love, fate, you name it. I know that everything happens for a reason and I WORK to make sure that things happen the way I BELIEVE they should. Self-doubt does not do us any good. Imagine if you were never taught doubt, you were brought up to BELIEVE that you can do anything, be anything. How different would life be? Unfortunately society puts us in little boxes, making it difficult to ever truly reach our full potential. Confidence is called arrogance. Success is often tagged as selfishness. What a PAIN!!!
My thoughts? I say BELIEVE!! You have something you want to go for, go with all your heart, BELIEVE in yourself and watch as others will BELIEVE in you too.
I leave you with some of the amazing words on my FAVORITE new T-Shirt:
- Believe in Yourself and all that you are
- Dream. Become. Believe
- Whether you think you can or think you can't, you're right.
- Dont' Just chase after your dreams, RUN them down
- Live your inspiration
- If you are going to doubt something, doubt your limits.
- I believe hurdles in life are meant to be jumped over, not as something to stop us.
- What you believe has more power than what you wish, hope or desire for. You become what you believe.

My very favorite quote is "Don't just chase your dreams, RUN them down!" I try to think about that every time I pound the pavement (or the dreadmill).
