THE BALL IS IN YOUR COURT
YOUR MIND IS CREATING THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE.
IT’S MAKING THE BEST EXCUSES FOR YOU NOT TO SHOW UP.
HOWEVER, YOU’VE NOT GROWN UNTIL
YOU KNOW HOW TO COMMUNICATE, BE TRUTHFUL, APOLOGISE AND BE ACCOUNTABLE.
HOW YOU THINK AND HOW YOU FEEL ULTIMATELY AFFECTS HOW YOU ACT.
THE BALL IS IN YOUR COURT.

CHASE AFTER YOUR DREAM OR ACHIEVE IT. WHICH IS BETTER?
YOU’VE ACHIEVED YOUR DREAM!
Yay! Woohoo! Your da man! (or girl / woman). Congratulations are in order. Multitudes of congratulation messages, lunches, dinners, talks on how you did it, pats on your back…..
Warning: Achieving your dream can be scary. It is easier to chase after your dream than to achieve it.
When you had a dream, you went after it. Vision / mission. Goals with little steps… little victories… growing to big goals and victories… Long work days with possible sleepless nights…Plan A…if it does not work by a certain time, Plan B kicks on…and so on. You are constantly on the go.
You go for motivational talks and seminars to pump your adrenaline to “super levels”.
Here, I am a firm believer that motivation is
1% or less from other people (motivational speakers and seminars), things or surroundings; and
99% from within us.
Identify that 99% and work on it.
until you reached destination : DREAM Achievement. You did it!
The scary part for most dream achievers is what happens after that? What’s next?
You’re on top now. Where do you go from here?
