Harness Your Power: Persist! Persevere!

It is a joyful process for me as a coach when a client stays FOCUSED long enough to create the results they long for.  This week I have seen an incredible "real-life movie" of a dream culminating into a reality for someone I have worked with for several years.  It is AMAZING to be on the sidelines watching, cheering, and coaching the person forward.

To get the big dreams, you have to have a "stick-to-it-tiveness."  Too many people, when the going gets challenging, give up.  They may be close to the breakthrough but they become impatient or frustrated.

Consider this: What if that one next push allows your dream to be born? 

Contemplate:  Will you find yourself looking back with regret for not having gone the length needed to fully live your potential?

Persistence is defined as the quality of continuing steadily despite problems or difficulties. 

Perseverance is defined as steady and continued action or belief, usually over a long period and especially despite difficulties or setbacks

I implore you to develop these qualities.  Persistence and perseverance are a foundation for creating true success and satisfaction.

The roads, when they go uphill may cause you to feel out of breath, but in the process of climbing your body has been awakened and your lungs have been stretched.  And, when you have reached the top of the hill, the view is quite incredible.  Your spirit will sing.

A favorite new quote I found goes something like this, "The hardest part of getting to the top of the ladder is getting through the crowd at the bottom."

The people who move up the ladder are the ones who stay focused the longest and NEVER GIVE UP ON THEIR DREAMS.

With great beleif in your power to persist,
