On a recent trip to St. Louis, Missouri, for a seminar, I stopped by the famous Gateway Arch, the symbol of the expansion of the United States to the West.

It was completed in 1965 at a cost of $13 million. This monument is in commemoration of Thomas Jefferson and the great deeds that he did with the Louisiana Purchase and expanding the United States to the west coast.

It was not far from the Gateway Arch that, in 1804, the Lewis and Clark Expedition took off.

The Gateway Arch is the tallest of our national monuments in the United States. It is 608 feet tall and 608 feet wide at the base.

There is a tramway system inside the arch that takes over a million people a year up to the top to observe the entire area.

There is something unique about the tramway in the Gateway Arch. Since the arch curves, that tramway does not go straight up. In order to keep the passenger cars level as they go up the curved arch, there are many adjustments along the tramway.

Isn’t that a lesson in life?

Many times, life for us is not a straight line. Life sometimes throws us a curve. And, if we don’t learn to adjust as we go, if we don’t learn to take those difficult moments a little easier, life is going to be really tough for us.

So, may I suggest for you, if you have a difficult time adjusting to the challenges of the economy, of your health, of the weather, or whatever, that you realize that you can adjust easily.

May I suggest an affirmation that helps us deal better with the curves of life: I adjust easily to the curves that I see in life.

It’s not what happens. It’s how we react. Thus, it’s all about our attitude toward challenges that makes the big difference.

By adjusting our attitude, I believe that we will be able to move up to the top a little smoother.

You are special. You are unique. You are destined in greatness. I see it in you – you are a Champion. Have a powerful day!

While on a recent trip to Washington, D.C., where I did a series of seminars, I visited the Jefferson Memorial.

This amazing memorial is in honor of an amazing man who was instrumental in the birth of the United States of America.

Thomas Jefferson was well known for the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. He also sponsored the Lewis and Clark Expedition that found the Northwest Passage. He did some amazing things.

The reason I want to talk about Thomas Jefferson is the fact that he authored The Declaration of Independence. I think we each need to author our own Declaration of Independence.

Some of us, during these trying times, whether it be financial challenges or maybe there are health challenges, have become prone to worry – a little too much worry.

My feeling is that stress is the number one killer in this country. If we can get control of worry, I think that might help us a lot to be able to open our eyes to opportunities and to improve our situation.

Dale Carnegie wrote a wonderful book called “How to Stop Worrying and Start Living”. In it he said that we must live in day tight compartments.

Consider as if you were living in a room with a door behind you and one in front of you. The door behind you is to yesterday and it is locked permanently. The door ahead of you is to tomorrow and it does not open up until midnight tonight.

So, all we’ve got is today – this very room. And, if you’re worried about something, then write down what is the worst that could happen. Just write down what is the worst that could happen.

Then write down what you would do to improve on that if it did happen. Then you’ll realize that you’ve got a solution. Carnegie said that, by just writing it down and looking at it, that will help you to relax.

Again, he said to live in day tight compartments. The question is: “What can I do about it today?”

May I suggest that you now use Carnegie’s idea and declare your own independence from worry. I believe that the following affirmation, stated out loud the first thing every morning and the last thing each night, for at least 30 days, will help.

If you were totally confident about your life and your future, would you worry about anything?
