There is nothing “out there,” “touchy-feely,” or “woo woo” about what I have to say today.
There are two types of people: players and spectators.
Players take action. Spectators comment on the action.
As a literal example, there’s a tennis match. The players are the ones smashing the ball back and forth. Everyone else is a spectator, just watching the ball, and cheering.
A less obvious example: Are you the woman wearing the amazing outfit or the one commenting on it?
But there’s more to being a player than just playing tennis or wearing great cloths.
While players have power with their actions, they are also 100% responsible for the state of their lives. No complaining, no blaming, just action for either making it happier or keeping satisfied.
Now you know why there are always more spectators than players: it is SO much easier.
Tell me, what did you DO today to make your life more the way you want it?
