You've heard it and said it since you were a kid: Sticks and stones may break 
my bones, but words will never hurt me. That's definitely true if you are the 
recipient of the word... but absolutely wrong if you are the sender. You see, 
language completely defines who you are, what you will do, and the level of 
success you can achieve. If you are what you eat, it is also absolutely true 
You are what you say.
That's why I've identified 7 key phrases that are holding you back, 7 phrases 
which you must IMMEDIATELY eradicate from your speech as they threaten your 
success!
1) I'll do it tomorrow.
Want success? Then understand that tomorrow is the enemy of today. How many 
people do you know who have a manana mentality, always willing to put off 
until tomorrow that which could so easily be done today.
People who succeed in life are people who do today what can be done today, never 
allowing themselves the luxury of postponement. These words, then, must be the 
first to expunge... and never allow your brain to think. Carpe diem must 
forever be your guide.
2) I'll make do.
Now hear this: successful people never make do. Making do is for people who 
have convinced themselves that they will be happy with less. This, of course, is 
the direct opposite of what truly successful people think, say, and do.
To the successful, making do means imposing restrictions on who you are and 
what you could achieve if you made achievement, rather than its opposite, your 
objective. No great thing, no worthy thing, no meaningful or awesome thing has 
ever emerged when the person in charge said these words. So banish them at once 
from your vocabulary; if you keep them you will surely get the less you say 
satisfies and nothing more. Is that what you want?
3) I'm a survivor.
Initially this may seem positive, but upon further thought you will come to see 
how invidious this phrase really is. No successful person is merely a survivor; 
such people do not merely continue to exist which is what survival means. 
Instead, they ascend beyond mere existence to the superior state of flourishing.
Thus, instead of touting the mere ability to get by, give yourself a better 
objective by saying: I am not merely a survivor. Instead I flourish. Note: 
Floreat Etona is the motto of England's most prestigious and influential school, 
the school that has provided generations of leaders. Let the slogan work its 
magic for you, too.
4) I'm fixing to do it.
Take a close look at these words.
They do not say I am doing it.
They say I'm thinking about getting around to doing it.
Now, it should be obvious that truly successful people don't brag about how they 
are about to do something. No, indeed. These people, the people we want to be 
like and emulate, are people who are masters of do. And you must be, too. Drop 
fixin from your vocabulary forthwith.
5) Working on it.
Here's another deceptive phrase which makes non English speakers scratch their 
heads in bafflement. The phrase, you see, seems to mean one thing, but actually 
means quite another.
Working on it means the complete reverse. It does not mean that a thing is 
being attended to, completion in sight. It means, instead, that the thing in 
question is not being attended to, has not been started, and that no completion 
date can be seen because none has been set. Oh, my!
Working on it is a phrase beloved of procrastinators, the slothful and 
slow-walkers worldwide because it gives them cover for the work they are 
assuredly are not doing and the success they will not achieve because of it.
6) It's good enough for me.
This potent phrase has destroyed success for millions worldwide, generation 
after generation. Success means constant application, work, a vivid striving 
after success and the thrill that comes from having achieved it.
By contrast, the minute you utter the word enough you have signaled an end to 
absolutely everything necessary to achieve success, including success itself.
It's good enough could hardly be worse for your aspirations, strangling 
success in its cradle and leaving you with crumbs. There is nothing quite so 
bad, wrote the insightful Oscar Wilde, as that which is good enough. This is 
why you must banish this corrosive phrase at once. Only the good can be good 
enough for you!
7) I could never do that.
Are you one of the legions of people who use these killer words? Be advised: 
success cannot flourish in this inhospitable terrain.
People who demand success empower themselves by creating an environment where 
the goal of success is never undercut by the words they use and the thoughts 
they think. For such people, the keynote is positive potential, not 
instantaneous death by your own hand.
You see, if you say you cannot do the thing in question, then most assuredly you 
will not achieve that thing. As Henry Ford, master of the practical, the richest 
man of his time, rightly said: You think you can. You think you can't. Either 
way you're right.
Last Words
Success at the best of times is generally difficult to achieve. Why, then, make 
it even more difficult by sabotaging yourself, diminishing success by empowering 
failure? Your thoughts, your words are your realities. Negative words, 
restricting words, words that sabotage rather than improve and inspire must be 
rooted out and destroyed.
YOU must create for yourself an environment where the total focus, including 
every word you utter, facilitates achievement and does not handicap it. Start by 
eradicating these 7 invidious phrases, replacing them with those that enrich, 
improve... and never impede. At once, your trek to success becomes decidedly 
easier. Yes, you are on your way!
This astonishing phrase is dynamite, a sure-fire indicator that the person who 
thinks and utters it will have the most meager portion of success. In short, it 
undermines, sabotages and otherwise strangles the very possibility of success.
What stimulates success is the keen desire to be better, to have better, to live 
better.

I do a lot of management training each year for the Circle K Corporation, a national chain of convenience stores. Among the topics we address in our seminars is the retention of quality employees - a real challenge to managers when you consider the pay scale in the service industry. During these discussions, I ask the participants, "What has caused you to stay long enough to become a manager?" Some time back a new manager took the question and slowly, with her voice almost breaking, said, "It was a $19 baseball glove." Cynthia told the group that she originally took a Circle K clerk job as an interim position while she looked for something better. On her second or third day behind the counter, she received a phone call from her nine-year old son, Jessie. He needed a baseball glove for Little League. She explained that as a single mother, money was very tight, and her first check would have to go for paying bills. Perhaps she could buy his baseball glove with her second or third check. When Cynthia arrived for work the next morning, Patricia, the store manager, asked her to come to the small room in back of the store that served as an office. Cynthia wondered if she had done something wrong or left some part of her job incomplete from the day before. She was concerned and confused. Patricia handed her a box. "I overheard you talking to your son yesterday," she said, "and I know that it is hard to explain things to kids. This is a baseball glove for Jessie because he may not understand how important he is, even though you have to pay bills before you can buy gloves. You know we can't pay good people like you as much as we would like to; but we do care, and I want you to know you are important to us." The thoughtfulness, empathy and love of this convenience store manager demonstrates vividly that people remember more how much an employer cares than how much the employer pays. An important lesson for the price of a Little League baseball glove.  Author - Rick Phillips  (Source: Heart At Work)  When you have been allowed to enter into management don't forget to show CARE for those you've been given charge over. http://ibourl.com/1gr2
