3 Victory Lessons from Tracy Morgan
ONE
Be Grateful
Last year, Tracy Morgan was involved in a horrific accident. He suffered a broken leg, nose and ribs. Morgan also suffered a traumatic brain injury due to the accident. Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey paid tribute to Morgan Sunday at the Saturday Night Live 40th anniversary special. Morgan's friend, Jimmy McNair was killed in the accident.
What are you grateful for today? Imagine waking up today with only the things you have been thankful for. Consider the people that are happy with a lot less than what you have. Be thankful for your life. Someone else is fighting to survive.
TWO
Keep on Pushing
In 1996, Tracy Morgan joined the cast of Saturday Night Live. In 2003, he left SNL and launched The Tracy Morgan Show. The show was a failure and was cancelled after one season. Morgan could have given up but instead he kept his head high and continued to look for work. He found his niche in 2006 on the hit show 30 Rock.
Morgan proves that failure is the opportunity to begin again. Do not consider how far you have to go, instead remember how far you have gotten. You fail when you refuse to get up. Being knocked down is a step on the journey to success.
THREE
Appreciate Life
Morgan's tragic accident reminds us that we must appreciate life. Treasure each and every moment because they will soon pass. Make the decision to be bigger than your concerns. Focus on your goals and choose to be unstoppable. Learn to appreciate what you have before time makes you appreciate what you had. Remember how precious life is and do not allow yourself to waste your life being unhappy.
Do not dwell on past mistakes. Many of us spend too much time thinking about what others think of us. Remember, what other people think about us is none of our business. No one is allowed to dictate your happiness except you, yourself. Do not spend your time comparing your life with others. Stop thinking and start smiling!
