Any one can start the race, but not many finish it.
The reason being it is tough to finish the race. Ask any athlete and they will all say that when they are fresh every thing is OK but what happens after 30/ 60/90 minutes?
When the legs are tired, the heart is pumping out of your chest, your feeling physical sick but you cannot stop if you want to win. Those that can rise to the challenge will be the one that succeeds. But the truth is many people quit at those times and the funny thing is they usually where only moments away from their success.
I use the above to motivate me to to keep going. At the moment the dreams I have seem like a million miles way. Especially when things are not going the way you planned, projects not running smoothly, financing tight and you feel your the only one that truly believes in your vision and their is one part of me that thinks just take the easy route Denzil!! For me the easy route means forgetting the vision for Gen Hope, wife not having to work, my dream home and everything else that on my dream board. Instead accept what would be falling in line and being like so many other people I know moaning about life and what it not given them. Complaining that life's boring, same old, same old. Reminiscing on the past when we were 18 and life was easier.
Just writing this I realise more and more I have no choice but to continue towards what I want to achieve, no matter how many mistakes I make (Just learn from them), how many times I fail (Just learn from them) , no matter how long it takes (As long as I get there), no matter how hard it gets (Remember it harder to know you didn't try, than to have tried and failed)
So this post is for every one going after their dreams and not allowing life to get in the way.
Remember "God gift to us is life, what we do with that life is our gift back to God"
