“Where the heart is willing, it will find a thousand ways. Where it is unwilling, it will find a thousand excuses.”
~Arlen Price
“Winning means you’re willing to go longer, work harder, and give more than anyone else.”
~Vince Lombardi
You have heard quips and quotes about everyone having the same amount of hours in a day/week/month/ year and how they use them. But more and more I see people utilizing all their hours/ days/ weeks/ months and still being stressed out about wanting more. This is a good thing – the wanting more, but do not stress out about it. It’s call priority, and it’s up to you to organize yourself.
I find myself hearing people “complain” in these situations. I always tell them that something’s gotta give !
As long as you are following your passions and living your heart, don’t stress.
I am a man with no patience, zero patience. When my mind gets stuck on something I want it now, immediately, all of it. But I have to remind myself that life doesn’t work that way – unless you are a lottery winner.
Things happen in stages. You have to stair-step your way up to your goal. I look at everything I have in life and have to constantly remind myself that it took all the years of my life to get here.
As long as you are using your time wisely – to whatever you determine is wisely, then you can relax!
People will judge you. People will disagree with you. People will seem to be ahead of you with your goals and you will feel discouraged. Don’t!
Continue to take the steps on your path, one at a time. You won’t even realize how far you have gone until you have reached your goal.
“Brick walls are there to show you that you want it bad enough.”
– Randy Pausch
