June 7, 2024: Success Road Unpaved
"The right attitude can transform a barrier into a blessing, an obstacle into an opportunity, or a stumbling block into a steppingstone"
⁃ Cory Booker
The road to success is unpaved. It is filled with potholes, blind curves and a host of other things that can trip us up as we move toward our success goals. If we have a made-up mind, no amount of interference or stumbling blocks is going to keep us from achieving our aim. The key concept is not whether there are difficulties on the road, but whether we have the fortitude, the drive, and the courage to press on no matter what is thrown at us. Roadblocks and pitfalls are woven into the fabric of life. The real issue is, are we determined enough to crash through the barriers between where we are and where we want to go. If you are prepared to accept defeat, you might as well stay on the porch and watch the big dogs run, so you won't get your feelings hurt. But, if you are convinced in your heart of hearts, that nothing is going to keep you from achieving your objective, then the big dogs better stay on the porch, cause you're coming through!
