Sometimes it is hard, in my own struggles, to deliver a message that encourages you to be, do and have the things in life that you want. Sometimes I think to myself, it real- ly just boils down to a few key fac- tors. There are alot of things in this world that I feel like I understand. There are a few things that I know for sure. This, I know for sure. If you want anything in life, you have to pay your dues. You have to work for it and you have to prepare your- self for it. The preparation and work begin with your every day routines. How you do anything is how you do everything. You cannot expect to be successful in life, if you do not pay attention to life’s details. Action is the key to being, doing and having the things in life that matter to you. When I began writing this col- umn four years ago, I wanted to share with you the things I learned and was learning that would help you be better at whatever it is you want. The lessons are the same to this day. Love yourself, don’t pro- crastinate, be part of the solution, be honest with yourself about your shortcomings and be compassion- ate with others about theirs. Watch what you eat and move your body. Be grateful for what you have and take care of it as if it is made of gold. Be kind to others; give your money and your time away. Learn that not everyone will like you and that it is entirely possible to live a happy life in spite of it. Make lists: bucket lists, to do lists, wish lists and cross things off as you accomplish them. Never stop learning, never stop growing and never, ever, stop anything before you achieve it. Sometimes we just need to get back to the basics. Shut off the television, drive without the radio and listen to the still, small voice that knows your heart and has a plan for your future. Walk the dog; don’t just let him out the door. Wash your car, make your bed and put the shop- ping cart away when you are done, every single time. Make meals at home; sit at the table with your family. Check their homework, ask how their day was and really listen. Go to bed early enough to get out the door on time without yelling Faydra Rector You Matter and berating as you start a new day. Success cannot be summed up in one simple action. It is the sum of many actions done often and done well. We can all be successful. We can all get back to the basics of life and we can all make change. When I highlight someone who matters in a column, there is nothing about them that is super human. What there is about them is their abili- ty to do small things often and well. You mat- ter to. You matter to your family, your boss and your community. Get back to the basics of life and get the success you desire.
