I'm finally reaching a goal Ive been after for many years and I just started writing and this is what came out. I used to come here a long time ago and read things that helped motivate me, and maybe this will help motivate someone to never let go of their dreams no matter how tough things get, because if you persevere, eventually you will accomplish what you set out for.



Often times we like to plan our lives like a book. We dream of the way we want things to go. Sometimes we write it down, some is just a passing daydream of what is to come. How many sleepless nights awake can you count when your mind is racing faster then your thoughts can think. We all have a picture of how things should work out, and then we TRY to make it possible.

What I have come to find out, as everyone does, is that things rarely ever go quite as smoothly as planned. Something will block your path, or temp you to go astray. Many times we give in to the temptations or decide the obstacle in our way is too big or dangerous to overcome, or sometimes we are just to lazy to try. But the thing is that life never goes as planned. No matter how hard you might try, its always going to be harder or different then you expected. That is just life.

The most important thing is life is to never let go of your goals and dreams you had. When obstacles get in your way and it looks like there is no way by, you can give up, or you can persevere and find a way. Maybe it takes you a little longer to get around what ever is in your way, but the key is to find the way around and get back on that beaten path. Unfortunately, you will find out that the obstacles in your way seem to get bigger and more difficult. But do not relent, do not give up on your quest. Even though it might take longer or be a little harder, find a way around it and keep pushing forward. If your goals are big enough, this is going to become a routine and those earlier obstacles are no difficulty at all and you can just laugh as you walk over it wondering what was so tough the first time around. And sometimes these obstacles that seem like the worst thing in the world can turn into or in someway give you some of the things you will treasure more then anything in the world. Sometimes without these obstacles we would miss out on so many other things. This is just life.

The key to your dreams is perseverance. The willingness to press on when things look like they cant get any worse, and then continue on when they do get worse. Persevere! Persevere the ridicule and negativity that people will put you through. These people are jealous and do not want to see you succeed. Never give up. If you continue to persevere through hell and high water and continue to rise every time you fall, you will reach the star you have been chasing, even if it takes you 20 or 40 years, don't ever let your dreams slip away from you.

Life is a work in progress. Things never go the way they are supposed to. Life is not perfect. You should never sell yourself short. You should strive to reach your full potential in all areas of your life. Too many times we only do enough to get by, or settle for something less because we are lazy or the path to get there looks to difficult. Stop holding yourself back, step up, and do the damn thing. When your done you will not only feel a sense of achievement, but probably even say Hey That Wasn't As Bad As I Thought.

Never give up! Persevere LIVE!!!
