Attitude, The Ultimate Power: Jul 21, 2008

Why read Monday Morning Power?

You will find a consistency and a focus in all of my content that can change your attitude which can fuel a positive change in your life, if you want it to. If you are happy with your attitude and your life and see no reason for changing, then you either already have a PMA (Positive Mental Attitude), or you are a victim and want to hold onto your misery. These postings will then serve to fortify the person with PMA, or, hopefully, convince the "victim" that there is a better way. This site will contain essays, poems, stories, humor and links, all with the same goal: The pursuit, capture, care and feeding of a Positive Mental Attitude. I have had readers tell me that they have spent hours on my site and feel great about themselves both during and after. I log onto my own site frequently to help fuel my attitude; I hope you will as well.

Are You Prepared For Success? (Section III - Installment #15 "Only Me” – Male & Female versions)

(If this is your first time on this site, you may want to begin with "Are You Prepared For Success?" [Introduction])

If you are a regular reader of my Empowerment Process please read the Section II version of this poem first; then read this version.

Only Me

Whatever may happen, by accident or plan;
Whether by nature or whether by man;
No matter how terrible I feel I've been hit
I will look for the seed of a much greater benefit.

With every adversity, failure, and heartache;
With more bad news than I think I can take;
And all seems lost with nowhere to turn;
I'll take a deep breath, look, listen and learn.

Recovery and success are out there to find,
Because I believe in myself and I have a clear mind.
I'll stand up and stand tall and know that I will,
With courage and faith, conquer that hill.

I'm sure of myself, I know I won't fail.
I'll leave the doubters behind as I blaze my own trail.
Only I know what it is that I need.
I will decide not to fail, but succeed.

(An Original Poem by Mel Kaye)
