Impossible What?

Leave a reply
What does this word even mean?

I’m finally at a place in my life where “impossible” no longer exists. I mentally achieved this by making a committed decision that enough was enough! I became sick of not being able to grab ahold of what I truly wanted in life, and blaming it on this word. Now, the only reason I don’t attain a goal is because I don’t have the passion to continue sacrificing – and that’s o.k.

 If you don’t absolutely love what you’re doing … S-T-O-P! Time is too valuable to spend on mediocrity. 
Conversely, if you have a deep passion for something, eliminate Impossible from your vocabulary. Lose the excuses, whining, and every other reason you haven’t achieved it yet. 
Nothing and especially NO ONE can keep you from your dreams. I’m living proof of that fact … it’s happening right in front of my eyes – things that I once thought impossible, are becoming a reality. I can say, with 100% certainty, they’re manifesting because I lost that nasty word, and committed every ounce of energy into seeing it all through. 
I challenge you, personally … turn impossible into Probable … watch what happens!

Got Passion?

This struck me as so true! I instantly connected with this, emotionally, remembering a time where I had actually ran down the last bus of the night. I was in total desperation mode, knowing that if I missed it, the walk home, not only would be long, but also dangerous. During this chase, I ran faster than normal – I was definitely more intent on catching the last bus, compared to if it was the first. 
THIS is how our run towards our goals should feel! In our minds, there shouldn’t be another “bus” coming to pick us up. Our actions each day should reflect the need to attain the goal – we’d crumble if it wasn’t achieved. Instead, many settle for less, make excuses for why they “couldn’t” sacrifice or work that extra hour, all while watching their dreams remain dreams.
Make them real … now. Imagine yourself living the rest of your life without the goal you created. What does that feel like? If you feel as if the last bus just drove away, you’re on the right track. You can’t fake passion. Keep your heart open. Listen to it. Chase it with every last breathe in your body.

The True Definition Of Commitment

I posted this quote yesterday on my Facebook page, and got a huge response. 
I think it resonated with so many people because, so often, we fall into this trap – being excited and motivated in the moment, but when that “moment” disappears, we lose the commitment. Our goals will only be reached when we understand it’s during our most frustrating times where we make the biggest difference.
Anyone can continue when they’re feeling good, but it’s the 1% Mindset that keeps pursuing during the most struggle, most pain, most doubt.
