Perseverance

Perseverance

Live your life like the wind.

Speed up when necessary,
And know when to slow down.

Slow down when life pushes so hard and fast,
You cannot consume anymore air.

Slow down when you can't see
Where you're going
Or where you're coming from.

Take time to stop and realize
What you have right in front of you
When you cannot find what you're looking for.

When you cannot find what you want in someone else,
Look inside of yourself.

Don't sweat the small things,
And make the best of the big things.

Cherish the experiences you've had,
And use the lessons you've learned.

Our lives are rubber bands,
Bending and stretching to fit
Even the most awkward situations.

You can adapt to anything,
Regardless of its size or shape.

You just have to realize and use
What you have in your own hands.

After reading my good friend LadyNay’s Blog it got me really thinking. Whenever I get to a roadblock in my life…………..  I knock that mutha down. It amazes me that people don’t realize that people (including me) achieve success regardless of the situation because we choose to. Some do it with help from friends, family etc. Other do it alone. Regardless of how it comes.  Perseverance is the reason.

Perseverance [pur-suh-veer-uhns]

-noun

1. steady persistence in a course of action, a purpose, a state, etc., esp. in spite of difficulties, obstacles, or discouragement.

I was born with the will power of millions! With enough self-esteem for every woman, man and child on this earth. I try not to let my obstacles be a reason for why I do anything in life.  I live to love life.  And I love life to live. I know that I have God in my corner 100%.

Everyone sees perseverance differently. Some see it as a problem, a challenge, roadblock etc. I see it as a way of life. I see perseverance as a way of seeing my goals get achieved day after day, month after month……… year  after year!

"What the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve."

I let noone tell me otherwise. Besides even if they do, I would not  listen anyway! Peace
