Motivation to get things done should come from within yourself. Our minds can often be our biggest obstacle. We can make excuses faster than the speed of light. We often put doubt in the place of confidence.
'Success is a personal standard, reaching for the highest that is in us, becoming all that we can be.' Nobody in my life said 'you are going to go to college and get a job.' Those were my desires and expectations to meet my own personal standard. Your life is your road to walk and nobody can do it for you.
'Success seems to be connected with action. Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes but they don't quit.' Success comes with trying, failure comes when you quit trying
If you tried, you could probably count all your problems but could you ever truly count all your blessings? I think it's too infinite of a task. Count the ones you can, but know once again how short we fall.
A really good blog. It is always good to read or hear about the successful guy who failed a number of times before he/she succeded. The guy who invented a water dispersant failed at least 39 times and his success was WD 40. There are millions of success stories, we each have one that we can share, and sharing the glory with God, makes them worthwhile. Dad
ReplyDeleteCharity and I were talking about you just yesterday, about the fact that you do not let anything hinder you from being who God created you to be and doing what He created you to do. Your life is an inspiration to so many of us, Angie. I love the little acronym on the bottom of the post. I need to "post" it somewhere :-) so that I can see it daily.
ReplyDeleteLife is all about choices....wise ones, unwise ones, good ones, bad ones. The Bible tells us to persevere even in adversity...or especially in adversity. God is always there for us....to help us in all circumstances....but we must acknowledge Him and He will direct our paths. Praying this for my children/grands....love you, Angie....T.
