Life happens. Or to be more exact, things that we do not plan en
route to executing our plan happen. It's a fact. Plan for it. Expect
it. Be determined enough not to let it be an excuse and just figure a
way to get it done. We always feel best when we do.
I'm not by any stretch saying to forgo compassion or that We will never
have to recalibrate & reassess or even rewrite our plans but when
we are not the sole deciders of whether we decide to quit* we
relinquish some of our power to create our own lives, our ability to
discover & uncover a part of our purpose. And believe that we have an amazing amount of power to create our own reality. Think about it - whenever You've set Your mind to a thing it comes to pass. Whether good or bad when You focus on something You begin to see it more - whether that car You never noticed on the roads until You bought won or a friend brought the vehicle's merit to Your attention or a job You desired so. You see what happens when we desire something with ferocity we begin to put our energy towards attaining it. And this happens either in service of us or disservice - we choose for we are the authors. Sure life offers many intersections and forks in the road along our journey as we write our lives but we are authors. We must choose our own
path, our own way and our own ending of each chapter. Or 'life' (the general flow of whatever direction the general flow is already going) decides for us. And that rarely gets us to where we truly desire to be. To get where we want, to attain goals we've got to swim upstream. That takes passion, preparation and perseverance. It is very simple but it is rarely easy. Passion fuels us, preparation is our plan and perseverance is the ability we each already have to endure and even enjoy as we work, fight, swim and crawl our way to get "it" done. Whatever "it" is.
I wish You the greatest success in reaching each goal but more in enjoying and transforming as You enjoy the journey.

*quit - We never really decide to "quit". If we choose another path,
from a place outside of fear we don't quit, we simply wrote another
plan. To quit is to give up on that we still truly desire.
