In his book “All You Can Do is All You Can Do”, A.L. Williams reminds us all of a few hard facts. Even though his book was written in 1988, it is so appropriate for today’s world.
Today, it seems that many people not only want someone or some government to give them something, they are relying on someone or some government to give them something. According to Art Williams, and me, this doesn’t have to be. When we rely on someone else for our needs, we are not truly free.
In what he calls an “unwritten law” that states: “Life will give you whatever you’ll accept”, reminds me of an old poem titled: My Wage
“I bargained with Life for a penny,
And Life would pay no more,
However I begged at evening
When I counted my scanty store.
For Life is a just employer,
He gives you what you ask,
But once you have set the wages,
Why, you must bear the task.
I worked for a menial’s hire,
Only to learn, dismayed,
That any wage I had asked of Life,
Life would have willingly paid.”
Williams goes on speaking about life granting us our expectations. He tells us that if you’ll accept being average and ordinary, life will make you average and ordinary. If you’ll accept being unhappy, life will make you unhappy. If you’ll accept having financial problems, life will give it to you. But if you won’t accept those things, and if you demand happiness, success, and fulfillment, that’s exactly what you’ll get.
Know that it is totally up to you and me to achieve greater and be an example to others so they will do the same. Mark Twain told us years ago: “Don’t go around saying the worl owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first”.
In my website called Attainment Rules, I explain how to affirm those good things that you want, happiness, success, and fulfillment (in all of the Major 8 areas). So I leave you with this affirmation. Write it down on a 3x5 card, read it 3 times a day for 7 days and then return here and leave a comment as to what has happened.
I decree, I declare, and I accept that I am extraordinary; I exude happiness, experience success in all areas of my life: spiritually, socially, financially, and emotionally, and am totally fulfilled in every way. For this to be, it is up to me.
There’s a gift waiting for you just for reading this. Go to Attainment Rules and you’ll see how to download success aids that will help you on your journey to success; whatever it is to you.
