Don't let your tank run out of gas!

As I was getting my hair cut this morning, I got into a conversation with a lady about personal development , reading and listing to positive things.

She asked me how often did all those things. I responded with " That is the way i start and end my day." 

I continued to tell her how important it is to be reading something positive and encouraging every morning and while on your way to work to listen to some positive tapes or cd's. Rather then listening to the news that is filled with negative things. 

The lady replied " Yeah well, I just listen to it when I'm down in the dumps and really need it."

My eyes looked like they were going to pop out and my jaw dropped....

I looked at the lady and asked if I can give her a little analogy.

I said, " When you are driving your car down the road, do you wait until you car starts sputtering and shuts down because it is out of gas? 

She replied, "of course not I try and keep my tank full."

" The same as you keeping your car full on fuel you have to keep putting positive fuel in yourself  so you do not 'run out of fuel per say and end up in the dumps,'" I replied. 

I saw it click with her as I got a positive response from her and she began to tell me how she will be changing what she does and listens to in the mornings and evenings....

Keep your tank on full. Constantly be "at the pump." 

Have a great day!
