Never Surrender/TGIF

Happy Friday Everyone,
Let's get it going. Trying is always the charm of accolades to follow. Peaks, strife , struggle all a part of life. Sitting around waiting for life to happen, you'll quickly come to realize that life will pass you by, and it goes so very quickly.

Some would disagree about keeping up with the Jones, but if you really dissect it, That Jones family probably should be given much more credit, when you think of your own personal accomplishments and goals. If you don't have anything to reach for with true desire and passion, what it is all about? We all search for hidden meanings to the bigger picture. Some do it in front of people, others seek 'it' quietly.

I often speak on personal goals and triumphs. I do it because it's not something that should be overlooked. As long as the discussion continues to be on the table. I feel it will keep the focus where it should be. Execution and concentration should always be at the forefront of your thoughts. It doesn't get easier, it's like a muscle, the more you use it,the tighter and more defined it becomes.

If you find yourself the richer and smarter in your circle of friends, I say get yourself a new group of friends. You can be one or the other, you cannot be both. We all need someone to challenge us, to get into our minds to push us to greater heights. You cannot surrender and just accept what life offers and where it takes you to. Today's bad economy speaks to how hard things can get sometimes. In the lean times, you find a way to rise up. Sometimes you have to be pushed against a wall to truly find out your survival skills. You must believe that we all possess that 'core' determination of strength. If and when you need a shoulder to lean on, don't view it as weakness, take those moments to discover your inner workings.

Looking back in review, some years will be better than others, and believe me it doesn't go in sequence. Keeping focus on direction, new maps, new routes and reconstruction are all a part of the tools that can make our stories phenomenal.

What are you doing with your life?
