Do YOU want to be a Real Winner in Life?

Chance favors those people who are prepared.

Two people have an opportunity to win a competition.

Person one doesn’t do anything, but hopes, wishes, and dreams about winning.

The second person makes a decision to win. She practices and puts in effort for one full year prior to the competition.

Which person do think is going to be lucky winner? There is a small change the person who doesn’t practice all year could win. However, the odds are leaning mostly towards the person who has putting in time, effort, dedication and practice.

Here is my [Danny Pettry’s] philosophy on success.

Continue your education. Continue your career. Continue your success.

My favorite motivational speaker, the late Jim Rhon said, “for things to get better, you must get better.”

Those people who are serious about learning, growing, and achieving success are encouraged to take a self-study CEU course through Rec Therapy Today.

Our program isn’t for people who aren’t serious in their life, growth, and success.

No Thanks. I’m not interested in learning, growing and continuing my education. — this button will get you out of here and take you to something different.

“Do It Right the First Time” Is Terrible Advice

By Danny W. Pettry II, M.Ed. M.S., LPC, NCC, CTRS-BH I remember hearing teachers give this advice: “Do it right the first time, and you won’t have to do it again.” It sounds like good advice. And sometimes it is. If I’m completing a task I already know how to do,...
