Press On... Keep Breathing...Persevere
Just going through my normal blog reading and came across Missy Caulk's blog. I like this a lot so I felt I should re blog this....so Missy I just wanted to say thanks in advance for giving good blogs and useful information to read daily.
“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘press on’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.” Calvin Coolidge.
Everyone experiences hurt and disappointment, that is part of living. Therefore,it is not what happens to us that changes our destiny but how we respond to what happens to us that determines our destiny. To grow we must be able to move on from our hurts and disappointments.
When we experience hurts, the tendancy is to give up, withdraw, quit being vulnerable and shut ourselves off from others. We quit trusting.
In other words,"we keep breathing but stop living."
What if the people in the video below had given up? (1.6 min)
They all experienced tremendous set backs and hurts.The key is not to shut yourself off, hide in your cave, but to acknowledge your hurt, anger or disappointment and then move on.
- If you have never failed, you have never lived.
- If you have never been hurt, you have never lived.
- If you have never been disappointed, you have never lived.
My pain is not your pain, and your pain is not my pain. But, ALL of us have hurtful things happen to us along our life's journey. The difference is in how we respond to it.
Press On......
Hey guys, I'm preaching to myself here.
