Speaker 1 (00:00):
Life is waiting for you each day and you have to
prepare for each challenge alongthe way towards success.
It's not simple, but it can bedone.
Welcome to my Common SenseMotivation episodes.
I'm Chris Fantastic Powell.
A sailboat doesn't move forwardby locking its sail in one
position.
It moves by adjusting, shiftingand responding to the wind.

(00:25):
That's the very nature of life.
It never stays the same.
The tide changes, the windchanges, the storms come and the
calm waters return.
And if you're honest withyourself, you'll know life is
exactly the same way.
No good situation lasts forever, and neither does any bad one.

(00:45):
But like a skilled sailor, youmust be ready to adjust.
The sailboat knows itsdestination, it has a course, it
has a vision, but the only wayit reaches that shore is by
being flexible enough to shiftwith the winds that push against
it.
Life works no different If youwant strong relationships, if

(01:07):
you want thriving businesses, ifyou want success with people.
It won't happen by accident,and it won't happen by simply
wishing for it.
It happens because you plotyour course and then work every
single day, adjusting whenthings go right and adjusting
when things go wrong.
That's the secret Adjustment,flexibility, discipline.

(01:31):
The sowboat that refuses toadjust never arrives.
The person who refuses to grow,to learn to bend when the winds
of life blow never reach theirdestiny.
So ask yourself today am Iadjusting my cells?
Am I willing to shift, learn,grow and move with the winds of

(01:51):
change?
Because life isn't a joke andit isn't waiting for you.
The winds are blowing, whetheryou like it or not, and if you
want your dreams, if you wantyour relationships, if you want
your future, you must sit yourcell and keep adjusting until
you get there.
That's how you win, that's howyou arrive, that's how you build

(02:13):
a life that matters.
Make it happen.
