Are you creating the results you want in your life? If you’re not, you must look at what you’re doing daily to make sure that you are moving toward the direction you want to end up.
The thing is, most people are so motivated when they first come across an idea how to achieve their dreams. When they read something inspirational, they fill themselves with energy and they’re feeling energetic that they can take on the whole world to make their dreams come true.
However, this does not last long. After awhile, a few hours or sometimes a few days, they will get back to their old energy level.
It is just like a dash or a sprint. After you’ve poured in a lot of effort, you’ll feel tired and you’ve used up most of your energy. But achieving your dreams and being successful is not a sprint, it is a marathon.
This is what most people never realize.
Imagine, if Thomas Edison goes into his lab everyday and tell his assistants that he does not want to see anyone wandering around, no walking, its running everyday and he tells them they’ll have to put in every minute and every second to invent the light bulb…
What do you think is going to happen? All of them will get burn out faster than they can imagine.
However, Thomas Edison knows that the game is not speed, it is persistence.
And this is how he is able to achieve such an amazing results in his life. If he treats his project like a sprint or a dash, we’ll never be able to enjoy the result of his work. Maybe we’ll be using kerosene lamp instead of electric light bulb right now.
Thanks to his persistence that we’re able to enjoy the fruit of his hard work.
Every successful person knows this very well. Success is not something that will come to you overnight. You’ll have to spend time taking the steps to reach your destiny. Rome was not built in a day!
Everything takes time to be created, and so are your dreams.
Therefore, the ultimate quality that will guarantee your success is persistence. Don’t rush over your projects or your dreams.
I know that you want to be successful, you want to be rich and you want to live the life of a millionaire. Honestly, who does not want to?
But you have to understand that it is not a one day or a two day journey. It is going to take you months or most of the time, years. Thus, make sure you’re ready and fully prepared.
Make sure you have the persistence to go through every obstacles that you’re going to face in your journey. Make sure you have enough rest and energy to go on. Make sure you do it slowly so that you will not burn out fast. And the most important of all, make sure you don’t give up.
Whatever you do, don’t give up. As long as you’re not giving up, you’ll still have the chance of making your dreams a reality.
When you give up, you’ll lose everything. You’re not going to achieve your goals and make your dreams come true. You’re going to lose all the previous effort that you have poured in.
Try to get over it, get under it, get above it, or just blow the wall that is blocking you in your path to success.
And stay persistence…
