Your Purpose Gives You Direction

Your Purpose Gives You Direction

“Effort and courage are not enough

without purpose and direction.”

John F. Kennedy, 35^th President of the United States

As I see it . . . . . . .

Your purpose gives you direction

Your life needs a purpose to bring out your best . . . .and to give you direction.

If you’re not sure where you want to go with your life . . . .or why you want to go there,. You may find yourself moving but you’re not making a progress . . . . you’re drifting without a purpose.

Maintain a clear vision of where you want to go with your life. Set your internal guidance system with the directions to get there . . . . and use your IGS to keep you moving on the right course.

Have a purpose for your success journey and set clear goals along with the directions to get there.

Your purpose gives you direction . . . . and will keep you on the right path and moving in the right direction. Your purpose you give you the motivation to push forward through the obstacles you encounter along the way. When you know where you want to go your directions will keep you on the right path to get you there.

It’s Only Impossible Until Someone Does It

Motivational Power Quote

It’s Only Impossible Until Someone Does It

“The Wright Brothers flew right though the smoke screen

of impossibility.”

Charles F. Kettering 1876 - 1958, American Inventor,

Founder of Delco

   

As I see it. . . . . . . .

It’s impossible only until someone does it

On December 17, 1903 in Kitty Hawk North Carolina the Wright Brothers . . . . accomplished the impossible. On that day their flying machine lifted off the ground and into the air. It was the first flight of a fixed winged aircraft in the history of the world to successfully fly.

That day the impossible . . . . become possible.

It’s impossible to run a sub four minute mile. It was believed that if a person tried to run a mile in less then four minute their heart would bust as a result of the stress of trying to run that fast.

On May 6, 1954 Roger Bannister stepped onto Iffley Road Track at Oxford University in England . . . . and ran the first sub four minute mile in 3:59.4 minutes. What was considered to be impossible became possible . . . . and soon turned routine.

For ages people look at stars and dreamed about reaching them but everyone knew that it was impossible.

As a visionary President John F. Kennedy challenged a nation to put a man on the noon by the end of the decade of the 1960’s. The historic moment came on July 20, 1969 . . . . as American Astronaut Neil Armstrong stepped from the Eagle landing craft onto the surface of the moon in full view of the world watching on television.

On that historic day with the efforts of the America aerospace team took the impossible . . . . and made it possible.

It’s only impossible until someone does it.

You can turn an impossible into a possible when you become committed to break down the old barriers to what’s impossible in your minds. You have to dedicate yourself and your efforts to successfully make what was impossible in the past a possible and a success story.

Turning an impossible into a possible takes . . . . a possibility thinker putting their vision into a plan of action and taking the actions to achieve their vision. Remember it’s impossible only until someone does it and breaks down the barriers to do it.

Don’t Settle . . . . For Second Place

Motivational Power Quote

Don’t Settle . . . . For Second Place 

“Once you say you’re going to settle for second,

that’s what happens to you in life, I find.”

John F. Kennedy 1917 - 1963, 35^th President of the United States    

 

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Don’t settle . . . . for second place

Accepting second place . . . . is admitting defeat before you start and becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.

Settling for second place lowers a person’s expectation for themselves and . . . . that person will never know what they are truly capable of being or doing. You will never achieve more then you believe that you will achieve and you will never do more than you believe you can do.

Strive to be the best that you can be and focus your efforts of being that person. Create the vision of being first and turn that vision into a goal. Pursue that goal with faith in yourself and . . . . the belief that your vision will be achieved.

You will never go higher then you aspire to go or further then you are willing to work to achieve.

Don’t settle  . . . .for second place . . . . go as far as you can go. Be the best you can be and work as hard as you can to achieve the results that you have the vision of achieving.

An Excuse is an Excuse - Not a Reason

Motivational Power Quote 

An Excuse is an Excuse - Not a Reason

“History will never accept difficulties as an excuse.”

John F. Kennedy 1917 - 1963,  35th President of the United States 

As I see it. . . . . . . .

An excuse is an excuse - not a reason

An excuse will not resolve a condition or an issue, solve a problem or make a job easier, an excuse compound the situation that you find yourself in. An excuse will make most situations worst. An excuse gives a person permission to fail in advance of their actions.

An excuse is an excuse - not a reason for someone not try.

The person that uses excuses; is buying a one way ticket to procrastinationville the Capital of nothing happens here.

Using excuses results in accomplishing very little except for maybe a headache.

The size of the task at hand and the persons resolve to achieve a successful outcome will reveal the persons true character.

The person that takes on a difficult situation may encounter setback but they will dust themselves off and try again until they succeed. They will not resort to excuses in difficult times they will relay on their actions to speak for them.

Winners make progress; peoples who make excuses are dead in the water and find themselves sinking under the weight of their excuses.

An excuse in not a reason for anything but; failure. An excuse is an excuse – not a reason.
