The road to self-improvement starts with you. You must decide that you will stop, look, listen & take the necessary action to insure your success.
At times it will be fun and exciting, as you learn and apply new things.
But, be aware that at other times it will take determination and perseverance {an -- "I will not quit mentality" } as you progress on your journey.
You will encounter bumps, detours, and outright resistance from friends and foes as you work on your self-growth.
When you first start it may be difficult for you to see what awaits you at the end of the journey --- and there may come a time when you will want to stop because the journey seems too long.
Rest if your must....but don't give up..

In order to accomplish this --- you have to be conscious of & control what you believe.

"To know whether you are sending out a positive or negative vibration, simply take a look at the results you're getting in that area of your life.
They are a perfect reflection of what you are vibrating." --excerpt from law of Attraction
In other words you will attract to yourself -- "that which you believe" [good or bad]
Tired of getting bad results? -- Then change --what you think -- how you think-- what you believe you can accomplish.
YOU must take the steps necessary to change the results you get.
Your circumstances will change when YOU decide that you need to change --that action will empower you by putting YOU in charge of the direction (path) that you take on your journey to self-improvement.
