I always park backing my vehicle in – with the tail of my vehicle in and the front facing out.

This is symbolic of how I try to live my life: always moving forward, I never want to go backwards.

In life, symbols (and how we use them to consciously direct our lives) are as important as the actions we take. It’s about how we set up our day, week, month, and year.

For instance, in our business, we have a very strong business plan.

That does NOT mean everyday things will always go according to plan.

Some days, we will exceed expectations; other days, we will fall short.

And that is perfectly ok. As long as we are still moving forward.

Forward momentum is so much more powerful AND rewarding.

Think about backing up your car – neck wrenching as we try to make sure we see all the obstacles behind us, reversing the vehicle ever so cautiously.

Now, think about moving the vehicle forward. We settle into our seats. Seat belt on, comfortable. Looking both ways and focused on what lies ahead.

All because we planned, prepared, and did the work first.

Forward. Always moving forward.

Focus on that plan. Visualize where you are going. Manifest it.

That forward vision will be yours.
