Show me the man you honor, and I will know what kind of man you are, for it shows me what your ideal of manhood is and what kind of man you long to be - Thomas Carlyle

As stated in a previous post, that I was going back to basics when it came to pursuing my goals.  I am still working on those small goals, but more importantly, I have been trying to become really clear on who is it I choose to be.  If I will just be that man, the goals where I am trying to achieve wealth in all areas of my life will come, and a lot sooner.

So each night, before I go to bed I write down the things I choose and believe, these are the things that make me the kind of man I choose to be.

• I choose to have strong boundaries
• I choose to be strong emotionally
• I choose to be unaffected by people’s and life’s tests.
• I choose to accept the “what is” in every situation.
• I choose to believe the Universe is a friendly place, and I believe it conspires for me.
• I choose abundance.
• I choose to believe I am blessed with all I want and more.
• I choose to believe I am a cause, I create my own reality.
• I choose love, I accept all with open arms.
• I choose an internal frame of reference.
• I choose optimism.
• I choose to evolve consciously.
• I choose long term success.
• I choose risk.  I win big, and lose small.
• I choose change.
• I choose uncertainty.
• I choose to grow.
• I choose to know and accept myself.
• I choose to accept, integrate and transcend all.
• I choose excellence.
• I choose to let things go to make room for the new.
• I choose to play big.
• I choose to enjoy the paradox.
• I choose to learn.
• I choose to invest.
• I choose fulfillment.
• I choose win/win.
• I choose to understand.
• I choose to give first.
• I choose honesty.
• I choose integrity.
• I choose to learn, to teach, and mentor others.
• I choose to be successful by helping others to be successful.
• I choose to surround myself with success.
• I choose to do it the best way.
• I choose to work on the system.

Most importantly, at the end of my list I write in big letters across the page… “I CHOOSE ME FIRST!” and then I sign it.
