Today with all the struggling going on here and there and things are looking difficult as if that dream of yours will not come true I want to boost your mindset and help you refocus your attention on the long term goal of every hard-work you may have put yourself into that's not working right.
I want you to know that in time all things do truly work together for good; it's merely a lesson you are going through for now.
Just do yourself a favor, don't settle for less that who you are and what you really want to achieve. Just enjoy today's blog and learn what you know will be needed for you here today.
Don’t Settle for Less/Mediocrity
True success in life can only come by not settling for mediocrity, we should always strive to achieve and get the most out of life that we possibly can, it is only when we push ourselves and give it all we’ve got can we then give ourselves a pat on the back for a job well done. Success in life depends on self-discipline and not giving in at the first hurdle you come across or going into a project only half heartedly, by pushing yourself that little bit further you will be surprised at what you are capable of achieving, this is what separates the winners from the losers or the successful from the unsuccessful.
All people say that they want to succeed in life at whatever they do but very few are willing to actually push themselves a little bit further in order to achieve their goals, and this is why some of us succeed in life and others fail.
How well you succeed is all about how bad you want the success, what it means to you, are you willing to succeed a little or are you willing to go the whole way and beyond to achieve a higher status and be outstanding?
We all start out with the best of intentions when racing towards the goals we have set, we shoot out of the starting gate and run down the straight lane but many of us fall back at the first hurdle, we don’t push, we run out of steam when the going gets tough and don’t pause to catch our second wind but come to a halt and give up, or stumble on half halfheartedly and cross the line in second or third place at best.
Those who do have the winning streak in them, who know that with a little extra push and a pause to catch their breath and then a final sprint down the home straight and past the winning post a head in front of their competitors are the ones that end up with the glory and true success in life.
Of course all those who are successful don’t just rely on pushing themselves, all winners have a strategy and are willing to be flexible on their way to success because life has a way of throwing many different spanners into the works along the way. We have to be able to adapt to these unexpected happenings when they occur and not get bogged down, we have to take them in our stride, skip around them and continue in the race.
Never settle for anything less than giving it your all!
Here are some tips to help you remember never to settle for anything but your best no matter what the project is:
1. It doesn’t matter how big or small the project put your all into getting it completed.
2. If you think you have given it your best shot, pause and ask yourself “could I improve.”
3 Plan our your project but always be willing to make changes and work your way around the unexpected.
4. It’s ok to pause but get back into the race and carry on until you pass the winning post.
To your success,
LET’S GO BACK
The foundation was rightly laid
But in building, cements, not enough
The beginning was correctly paved
But in the middle we wobbled
Now prayers are calling order
And time is pursuing unseen faces
While the future waits on plans alive
And hard-work takes tolls in places
The foundation is intact, let’s renovate
Many more things missing can be added
But only with the builders to collaborate
Bringing back the missing links of beginning
It should have been to the end
But many things stole time away
And uncompleted brings many bends
Let’s go back to the beginning again

MY VERBATIM TRUTH
I have sailed the world my heart
Love I search daily in my path
I have called upon my vision
But no comfort was the consolation
I thought I’ve found me true love
But leadership breaks the resolve
Surely there’s a perfect for me
I open my heart, eyes to be free
I give my advice in these lines
Love that you can to be fine
I sail my self-control to you
Faces are not character due
Though you may found true love
Your vision, purpose must to revolve
Though you may know true paths
Understanding the fulfillment of your heart
