| Dear John, Years ago Dad coined the phrase Be, Do, Have. You have to Be before you can Do, and you have to Do before you can Have. When you BEcome the right person and Do the right things then you can Have all that life has to offer. A few years ago two different people came to me on separate occasions and suggested we add the word Give to the phrase - Be, Do, Have, Give. I took the advice of Gary Moyer and David Wright, because after all you can not Give what you don’t Have. In the writing of my book, Choose To Win, I invested a lot of mental time on what is it that we really want to Give? What purpose or Why do most of us want to fulfill? The word I settled on was Legacy. Leaving, or Giving an intentional Legacy is one of the most powerful things we can do. So another word was added: Be, Do, Have, Give, Legacy. Now I am considering adding one more word to the sequence: Think. Every action we take is preceded by a thought. Every intentional action we take is preceded by our Thinking. Even “automatic” reactions are in place because of previous thinking which has created beliefs that create near spontaneous reactions. When we choose to Think deeply about what we want and who we want to Become we then choose the actions that follow. Think - about the choices you need to make to... Become - the right kind of person who... Does - the things necessary so that you can... Have - the good things in life and... Give - to those you love and care about a… Legacy - that transfers to them the ability to choose to Think... What do you Think? Choose To Win! Tom P.S.
