Keep Pushing Forward

Motivational Power Quote

Keep Pushing Forward

“I don’t think that once you get to one level, you can relax.

You’ve  got to keep pushing.”

Larry Bird, NBA Hall Of Fame  

 

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

Keep pushing

When we reach a plateau on your success journey you may . . . . want to enjoy the glow of the success. But if you become complacence you may never move beyond the current level of your success . . . . and you will never realize our full potential.  

 

Success is a series of stepping stone with each one moving you a little closer to achieving your goals and taking you the next level of success.

Look at each stepping stone as a step forward and you may find yourself wanting to take a moment to catch your breath. But the stepping stones are not the finial destination they are . . . . mealy the stepping stone to the next level.

If you find yourself becoming a little weary and start to think about using the stepping stone as your landing pad . . . .  you’ll derail your success journey. When your weary that becomes a time that you going have to push yourself hard to get up and get off the stepping stone and step  forward onto the next stepping stone.

Success and achievement takes time and focused effort. Keep pushing forward to reach a little higher and a little furthered and as you stretch yourself you will find that your goals become a little closer.

Problems Are Stepping Stones

Motivational Power Quote

Problems Are Stepping Stones

“For every problem, there exists a solution . . .

and at the very least . . . an opportunity.”

Michael Mc Millian, author  

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

Problems are stepping stones

Problems are stepping stones to what we make of them.

A problem becomes what we see it to be and how we respond to it will determine the direction that we will take.

We can see a problem as an insurmountable road block that stops our forward progress. Or we can see a problem as a step stone that takes us closer to our goals. It’s all in our perception of the problem, the way we respond to the problem and what actions we take to resolve the problem.

When you encounter a problem, look for the solutions and take the necessary actions to correct the problem as quickly as possible.

With every problem look for the opportunities and when you find it take massive action to turn the problem into an advantage.

Turn every problem into a stepping stone that will move you in the direction of your goals.

Problems are stepping stones to greater opportunity.

Plant the Seeds of Your Goals

and it will become a reality.”

The Period of Our Greatest Gain

Motivational Power Quote


The Period of Our Greatest Gain


“The period of greatest gain
in knowledge and experience is
the most difficult period in ones life.”
Daiai Lama


As I see it. . . . . . . .
The period of our greatest gain . . . .

Comes from the most challenging and difficult period’s of our life’s. In times of difficulties we gain insight on how to overcome our challenges and that knowledge becomes invaluable.

As we gain knowledge we seek new ways to use it. As we use our new knowledge it creates change and a point of stepping away from the security of our comfort zone.

We trade short term difficulties for change; the change for long term gains from application of our new knowledge.

Adjusting as a result of our past experiences creates an unparalleled opportunity. Our biggest difficulty is to accept the fact that things did not turn out as planned and making the adjustments that are required to move forward successfully.

Short term difficulties are a small price to pay for long term gains and success.

Jump on Every Opportunity

Motivational Power Quote


Jump on Every Opportunity


“Jumping at several small opportunities
may get us there more quickly than waiting
for one big one to come along.”
Hugh Allen


As I see it. . . . . . . .
Jump on every opportunity that’s presented to you.

Look at every opportunity as a stepping stone to achieving your desired outcome and success.

No matter how small an opportunity appears to be at the time; an opportunity has the potential to accelerate your success journey and build the bridge to your future.

Every opportunity has the capacity to open doors and to move us closer to our goals. Missed opportunities have the opposite effect and increase the distance between us and success.

When small opportunities become combined they have an accumulation factor that will make a big difference in our success.

Don’t wait for that big opportunity to come along. Jump on every opportunity that you have and you’ll make your own big opportunities.
