Wow! I can't believe how long it's been since my last post. Was I too busy? Too lazy? Too distracted? Whatever the reason, I am back and recommitting to connect with my readers regularly.
Speaking of recommitting....how are you doing on your 2007 goals? We are officially half-way through the year. Are you half-way to your goals? It is a fact - most people lose momentum and go back to doing what they know and then wonder what happened to their dream. No matter how well you plan or how well you execute your plan, you are bound to meet with disappointment, adversity, or failure along the way. It seems the "universe" is always testing your commitment to the goal/dream you're pursuing.
"Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." Confucius
Whenever you run into a roadblock, stop and brainstorm three ways to get around it, get over it, or get through it. There are many strategies that will work, but you will only find them if you spend time looking for them. Always be solution-oriented in your thinking. Persevere until you find a way that works. Challenges are what give you the opportunity to develop your inner resources of character and courage... To build a better relationship with yourself.
Recommit to your dreams. Refuse to settle for anything less. The one quality that will guarantee your success is the willingness to persevere, to see it through to the end. No matter how hard it seems, the more you persist, the more likely your success will be.
