What can I say about today…you are amazing and you will always have my love and friendship in your life. I have truly seen what an incredible human being you are and that it was I that was blessed to have crossed your path. Its so weird…in letting me go, you have shown me how you have always loved me, what you said to me today, no body has ever said ever in my life…the truth is that I never really thought that you understood the family thing with regards to me and my life and well I guess I now know differently, A brother. Wow…I am the one that is honoured, I know that on some aspects this has been very painful for you but you put aside yourself for me today and you gave me your blessing, but more than that you gave me this offer of brotherly love which you are right…I have never known and it has taken my love and appreciation for you to a total different level. As we walk our separate paths…like you have committed to be there for me at a phone call I too will always be here for you and you are right, we met for more reasons that just a marriage, we have imparted so much into each others lives and I believe we will continue to do so even though it may now be in a different manner. I couldn’t accept when you said that my happiness was most important to you, I doubted your intentions and how wrong I was…thank you for this gift of love and friendship, you’re an honourable man and you have in me a friend for life. Thank you for our beautiful children, thank you for blessing me with your support for the road ahead—Rob, you have amazed me and you will always have my respect for this. I love you and I always will. I will never forget today.

The thoughts that we think will either help us achieve what we want or stop us dead in our tracks. Henry Ford said, "Whether you think you can or whether you think you can’t, you’re right." This is so powerful a quote, that it should be memorized! There are thousands of people who have achieved their goals. However, there are also just as many people who are not achieving what they want. So, what is it that stops us from getting what we want? Well, I believe it is what we think ourselves capable of. We are capable of achieving exactly what we believe or think ourselves capable of achieving. I have to say, that the moment you believe yourself to be limited in a skill, knowledge, or in anything for that matter, you have just stopped your growth and potential. In order to get out of this way of living, you will need to change the way you think and what you believe you are capable of. Easier said than done? Well, I’ll tell you what I believe. I believe that if something has been done by someone else, I can do it as well. If it has been done, does it really matter who has done it? The answer is no, but the point is, that it has come into existence by human thought and action. Aren’t we human? Well, then we can do it to. Each outcome has a recipe. Find the ingredients and put them together in the same order in the same way and you will be able to create the result. Think you can and you will find the way. Think that you can’t and you won’t. If you are in a certain position in your career, what is keeping you from advancing? Are you limiting yourself by thinking that you have to stay in that same position? Will this way of thinking stop you from attempting to advance? Isn’t it our right as human beings to be able to advance ourselves as much as we want to in knowledge, career, wealth, health and really in every aspect of our lives? I believe that to grow as individuals, we need to think we can and remove any idea that we can’t. As a race, we have gone to the moon, sent information through air waves and found cures to life threatening diseases. Do you think any of these things were accomplished by people with a limited way of thinking? Brian Tracy said, "Whatever we expect with confidence becomes our own self-fulfilling prophecy." The answer is clear! Think you can, believe in yourself and in others and have faith that you can do what you want. This will give you the mindset that will empower you to create your life exactly the way you want it.

 "If you think about what you want in your mind, and make that your dominant thought, you will bring it into your life."
