Have you ever given up?
Is it a work out? On the job? On that minute, that hour, that day, that week? That goal? That person? That relationship? And worse…. YOURSELF?
There’s a reason why so many of us give up. We may not know what it is, which is exactly why I hope you read this, and more importantly, why I hope it hits home.
We give up when our Vision isn’t strong enough. The Vision has to overcome the reason you are quitting. Ask yourself in this moment, this very moment, why are you here? It may be for your family, your kids, to change the lives of others, to pour into people. It may be because you want someone, someday to remember you. Who you are. What you gave back.
Whatever your reason is, will that Vision pull you to do the things you need to do?
This is how we begin. The habit of losing no longer happens, it’s not an option. Take the time to think about these questions. Write them down. Give yourself this favor. Most people won’t do this, but those of you that do, and continue to read it, you will see a change, a shift start to happen.
Create the Reality you want to live into
- Career Reality
- Family Reality
- Friends Reality
- Life Reality
Slow down, breath and write down what you want your reality to be. What does it look like 1 year from now? What in your life can you start working towards every day? What if you just started? WHAT IF you said today is the day you are going to start doing it? Whatever that “What” is for you. You. Just. Start. Now, let’s look out 5 years. 10 years, even 20. Do you want to be that person that looks back and says “I should have started that?”
Do me a favor. Do yourself a favor. Create this for yourself. Because it doesn’t happen until YOU see it first.
- Map it out
- Break it down into daily things you can start doing – always adding to it
- Review it. Might be end of week, month, year. You will be astonished at how life changes
Don’t let losing become something you are just used to. “That’s just the way it is” should not be in your vocabulary. Whatever you want your winning to be. You have the ability to start doing something about it.
This is on you. Only you have the ability to change it. Stop accepting it.
Life is going to hit you. The minutes and hours will pass. You might as well do something with them.
