Never Give Up

TRUST THE POWER WITHIN

 

 

 

To never give up ... to push with all you've got and then just a little bit more. This can really apply to all areas of life. I find that many times we give up on ourselves and don't even recognize that we're doing it. We throw in the towel way too soon and perhaps when a miracle is just about to happen!  

 

In 2013, I followed the theme of dreaming BIG. It was something that completely changed my life. It became a way for me to envision my future just the way I want it. It has kept a fire burning inside of me to go for the gold and create baby steps that propel me in the direction of my dream(s). Was it scary to set really big goals... umm YES!! I am a perfectionist (one reason why I don't do well with scrapbooking - haha) in some areas of my life and work is one of them. I guess I could be called a bit obsessive about things. I want to know everything about everything. I will ask a million and one questions until I feel like I'm gaining a solid understanding. So for me to dream big, it came with the fear of failing. Failing was not something I have ever embraced. I used to make excuses as to why I did what I did or find reasons to justify it so that it didn't look like failure. Maybe I was trying to mask the disappointment of others so I didn't feel so bad about myself. Whatever it was, I didn't own it or take responsibility for it until I began to really focus on me. Looking back now, every failure that I did come in contact with developed strength and character. I learned what to do, what not to do, what I like, what I don't like, how to forgive and how my attitude can determine the outcome of any situation - overall the most valuable learning experience ever. And for the record every day is a new learning experience to take in and grow from.

 

Fast forward, now living in 2014 the theme is to NEVER GIVE UP! What a perfect way to piggy-back on 2013. Dream really big and then never give up on that dream. It almost brings me to tears to think how powerful these two years will be in my 33 years of existence. I have set some pretty hefty goals for myself and I know that as long as I believe in me (even when others do not) that I can achieve every.single.goal I set and then some.

 

The video in this blog is the perfect depiction of never giving up as the miracle is just about to happen when you push really hard and then give just a little bit more. True inspiration. Gives me chills. Apply this concept to all areas of life: personal, professional, relationships, etc and you are sure to live an amazingly fulfilled life.

 

Thanks for reading and until next time dream big, set goals, take action and remember your miracle is just around the corner. xo
