There's only a moment.
A moment where the biggest deacon of your life comes upon you. A moment in the dark.
Run away or run forward.
The challenges that face us are there to determine whether we truly want it bad enough or not. We fight like hell to show our best stuff and time after time we are tried and tried again.
But you do get to decide.
Do you run?
Or do you run into your fear?
This moment had arrived upon my doorstop only a few days ago and I had to make one of the biggest decisions of my life. Initially I thought it would bring about more confusion, but interestingly enough, it brought about a sense of peace and clarify.
But how could that be?
How could more pressure settle everything?
You dig deep down into your soul and understand exactly who and what you stand for. When you know what you are all about, it is far easier to face your fears.
So forge ahead.
Don't quit when it gets hard.
Yes...and there was the Captain again gripping the wheel even tighter ready to continue plowing through trying waters. There was no turning back. There was no going in another direction. There was only what was right in front of him and what he had seen all those months ago.
Many times we will lose our focus and momentum.
We fail to stick according to plan because we are discouraged by a lack of movement forward.
But when we face our deepest fears, our purpose returns back to us.
And with that purpose, the fire inside started to light again. Another day, another effort, and another opportunity to move forward in the direction I wished for.
We strive to be the grandest versions of ourselves daily and most of the time we come up short. But that's the beautiful part of all of this. Because without seeing beyond what we are right now we can never grow. We must see what is inside of us and attempt to bring out those characteristics to the best of our ability.
Yes we will fail.
But there should be pride in the defeat.
Take incredible amounts of pride in your persistence.
Take pride in your grand efforts and grand failings.
The scars you carry and the victories you have had define you as a great soul that has never stood in the stands wondering "what if?"
The ones who are quietly working in the late of night are our heroes.
