Motivational Power Quote

 

 

 

There’s No Coasting on Your Success Journey

“If you’re coasting, you’re

either losing momentum,

or else you’re headed downhill.”

Joan Welsh, Maine House of Representatives    

 

 

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

There’s no coasting on your success journey

 

There are two types of momentum. Your will either have forward momentum moving you closer to your goal. Or your momentum will be pulling you in the wrong direction putting your goals further out of your reach.

 

There is no coasting on your success journey. When you’re coasting you’re losing forward momentum and you will find yourself being pulled off course.

 

Keep your focus on the future and your momentum in moving you forward and in the direction of achieving your goals.

 

When you encounter an obstacle find a solution and work your way through the conditions, but you can’t coast your way through an obstacle.

 

When you encounter a road block on the journey find a way around it, over it, through it or take the detour to get you to your goals, but don’t coast. 

 

Coasting creates a lost of forward momentum, takes you in the wrong direction and farther away from achieving your goals.

 

Stay on course and keep your journey moving forward.

 

There’s no coasting on your success journey your momentum is either pulling you forward or you’re allowing your momentum to pull you away from achieving your goals. What you do with your momentum is a personal choice. Put your success journey into gear and move forward.

So true, once in a while I "coast" for a few weeks and pay more attention to things other than business and sure enough, I always have to pay for it and play catch up.

We all need to coast once in a while to recharge the batteries. The key is to limit the recharge time to when the batteries are back at full charge. No further coasting necessary!

Lou,

When we coast, we also allow others to catch up.

good point -- your rarely ever staying in place.  if you're not moving forward, you are probably moving backward (although you might have the illusion of staying in place for a time, until you realize that you are moving in reverse)

I think I'm reaching a point in life where I had rather move at a little slower pace...not coasting but time to slow down.

Lou, what's your belief on your level of comfort? Is it a good thing or bad?

It is not how fast you are going but rather the direction...good thought , Lou.

Lou,

I've never thought of it that way before, coasting.  But you are very right on and it is a good thing to keep in mind.
