Leading yourself can be very difficult because our brain is hardwired to see what is missing. Instead, you can lead yourself to your own personal vision by remembering:
What you think about yourself, you become. Thoughts only have power if you believe them.  You can act independent of how you feel. Chance thinking doesn’t lead to success – instead, make time each day to master your thoughts and lead yourself even more deliberately.
 
This Week's Power Phrase: “I lead myself today.”
Quote of the Week: “Work harder on yourself than you do your job.” — Jim Rohn
