Oh, how much I wanted to dance, or be on the drill team or be a good athlete &#8212; in any sport. If only I knew then &#8212; what I know now about &#8220;self talk&#8221; and believing and training and doing something about what I wanted to do. Dreaming and wishing and hoping is not the stuff that makes things happen. It&#8217;s the ACTION we put into our dreaming and believing. James 2:17 says: &#8220;In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Now &#8220;self talk&#8221;, taking the time to learn about what I desire to do, and putting action to my faith &#8212; is the way I roll. <\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s my self talk for today: &#8220;I can do this! I am a winner! I will not quit! There is no limit to what I can accomplish! I am prosperous and successful! I am bee-u-ti-ful! I make a positive difference in many people&#8217;s lives. I am a conqueror. I am strong and courageous. I am faith-filled and my ACTIONS speak louder than my words, so TODAY, I will ACT like I&#8217;m already there!&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was quite the awkward child and teenager.
