If You Want the Prize - You Have to Go After It

Motivational Power Quote

If You Want the Prize - You Have to Go After It

“Without ambition one starts nothing.

Without work one finishes nothing.

The prize will not be sent to you.

You have to win it.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson, poet

As I see it. . . . . . . .

If you want the prize – you have to go after it


The first step in getting the prize is to start and then go after the prize with a purpose.


The prize is there, but it won’t be dropped off to us. If you want the prize you have to go out and get it.

The road to the prize has many twists and turns but the prize is there for us if we remain focused on getting the prize and not side tracked with the obstacles we encounter.

To reach the prize is and you have to commit yourself to pursue the prize with a persistent effort until you achieve the desires outcome.


If you want the prize you have to be willing to stay the course and consistently move in the direction of the prize.
