Michael Jordan scores 41 points in a game and says, "I was just feeling it tonight. The basket was huge."

Tiger Woods wins yet another PGA tournament and says, "I had my A-game this week. It was like putting into a bucket today."

My nephew Dan Uggla sets a single-season home run record for rookie second baseman and says, "It was like swinging at a grapefruit up there."

What do all three of these athletes have in common? Success.

How did they get to their current level of performance? Success.

You see success brings more success. That is, you succeed in a small way, in a little thing, and that builds your confidence. You begin to see yourself as successful because you celebrate the small wins. The small wins build and build until pretty soon, you are successful.

And that’s how you accomplish your New Year’s resolution. Celebrate one pound lost or one hour at the gym or one bill paid in full. See yourself as God sees you—as a successful person who listens to life! And celebrate as you make a life!
