I find that I require little reminders like this on a frequent basis. It’s easy to stop trying, to sit on our laurels, to just give up.
It’s easy to find excuses for non-achievement, non-fulfilment and non-productivity. We seem to be wired to shift blame from ourselves onto other people or situations.
As long as we do this we will always be in a state of internal conflict. Our drive for happiness will contend with our desire to quit.
Some goals and dreams are too big and important to be quit on: Goals such as having strong, loving relationships; growing professionally; becoming a better person; passing that exam; etc.
Don’t quit.
Don’t make excuses.
Do persevere.
Do make a way.
Achievement is a choice. A series of choices to be precise!
May you have strength to make hard choices over and over. And may you choose always to never make excuses.
