Success Made Fun
The Little Black Duck Way



Before you throw any judgments at this title, yes it is possible and in fact is the only way to have true success! Make it fun.

That’s what I said “make it fun”. You are the one in control of your life and you get to choose how things affect you. Take a minute to think that if you chose to react to people differently than you did over the last week, how would your life be different? If you didn’t get defensive at your partner for coming home late, would you feel calmer? If you didn’t resent a colleague for getting a promotion would you feel more peaceful? If you didn’t grump at the kids when you walked in the door would you have had more fun with them?

All your reactions are just that, re-actions you choose to feel. You can choose to not “react” and instead “act” differently. You can see your life in a different way starting right now. All your power is in your now. Tomorrow is gone, and things have moved on from the moment you started reading this. Tomorrow is always “on the way” just like the carrot in front of the donkey to keep you moving. Now is the time you have to make a difference in your life. You can choose to react to events in your life in a variety of ways so start choosing how you will feel and take back your inner power of creation. Make your life fun and you will become the successful person you want to be.

Let your worries roll off your back like water rolls off the back of a duck. The little black duck is happy when it rains and everyone is running for cover and happy at the edge of the pond in the sun. You can choose to be happy in the tough times knowing that “this too shall pass” and the sun will come out again, or you can run and hide and think the world is against you. It is all your choice. All the successful people in the world have persistence on their side and see opportunities in everything, not difficulties. Look for the good in everything and very soon you will see it without having to try. You will become the visionary that sees opportunities and people will be drawn to you like a magnet. Your focus on gratitude for everything will allow the good in life to find you and you will stop searching and start receiving.

When you choose to stop the negative, restricting, worry patterns in your mind and start to open to play, fun, ease and joy, your life will transform itself and you will wonder why you didn’t let go before. No matter what your life circumstances, find one thing to be grateful for and one way in which you can create more fun in your life. If the only thing you can do is to take a mental holiday, that’s great you can go on holiday every day in your mind. No time? Well as I have advised some of my clients, we all have to go to the toilet so take 5 minutes to take a mental holiday while you do your thing. One of my female clients said that even in the bathroom her kids would find her and want her. That was her challenge to take 5 minutes to go to the toilet in peace. It worked wonders.

Be creative, let the bad, sad and uninteresting roll off your back like the little black duck and create the fun filled successful life you deserve.
