Security – ten words that blew open my world

After a fabulous weekend attending I Can Do It – Ft. Lauderdale, I carried a positive attitude into my Monday. Usually this means that the crash is about to happen. Usually it means that I am hit with some frustration or upheaval that leaves me lower than I was before the previous high…aka euphoric feeling.

And then, I heard them. A short, simple, straightforward definition. Ten simple words.

“Security is knowing you are able to handle whatever happens.”

What? Oh my God! Do you mean it’s not something that lives outside me? It’s not an environment or a situation or a place or a thing? It’s a feeling. And even better, it’s a feeling that I know I have. I know that even though I may not like the things I’m dealing with, that I can handle them.

Damn! Damn right! I can handle them.

Internalizing those ten simple words has changed my day, and I’ll bet that as long as I remember them, they’ll change my life.

I know that if I can handle the things the world throws at me, I can also handle the challenges and dreams I build for myself. I am secure because I know I can handle them. With that attitude, I can’t fail, I can only learn lessons…and the possibilities are endless! And all from ten words.
