Good afternoon friends and family.
I hope this email finds you well after a successful
journey in the walk of life last week. I
threw out a challenge to all of you on this email thread to set and accomplish
short term goals last week and set your eyes on long term accomplishments. How did you do? Find a mirror and ask yourself the question
in private. Reflect…answer yourself
honestly. The best part about this
private conversation is it holds only you accountable. Continue to strive towards your goals this
week!
Watch this amazing clip below. It lasts only 2 minutes and 38 seconds. It represents so much! Your heart is sure to be thumping!
In video sequence, I see accomplishment (making
track championship), practice, energy, training, commitment, determination and
then the fall at the 1:07 marks. The
fall represents failure, disappointment, sadness, heart break, shame,
embarrassment. It took 3 seconds (1:10
mark) for this athlete to enter back into the picture. Three seconds to stand up and take off. See, this athlete is trained to settle for
nothing but success just as you are and/or are capable of.
There is something in your world that has happened
to you in last day, month, year, or years.
You have suffered set back through a death in the family, a
hospitalization, possible money issues, loss of job, failure at work, failure
in a class, etc. It has happened now get
up like this athlete and take off and fix the problem.
I would be telling you a complete lie if I said that
this was easy to do. At the 1:10 mark,
she takes off focusing on one thing, the finish and the reward. There wasn’t one time where she looked to her
left or right. She didn’t care about the
other competitors. She didn’t show the
hurt she was feeling for three seconds.
She cared about the finish line and ran through it setting out what she
accomplished to do, win!
Run through this week aiming to accomplish your goals
personally and professionally. You may
fall down. You may suffer set back. You may feel the sting. Don’t dwell on it. Remember your goals you set out to
accomplish. Now, you can either find a
way to accomplish them or make a way.
The choice is yours!
Be the change.
With Respect,
