When Everything is Going Against You

“When you get into a tight place and when everything is going 

against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on 

a minute longer,  for that is just the place and time 

that the tide will turn.”

Harriett Beecher Stowe 1811 – 1896, American Abolitionist,

Author

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

When everything is going against you

You will find yourself . . . . being tested on a regular basis.

Some days it would appear that quitting . . . . would be  the easiest way out.

Success is achieved by the person that sticks it out . . . . who makes the extra effort . . . .  tries a little bit longer . . . . and works a little bit harder.

Successful people see their challenges as an opportunity to achieve successful results. They are focused forward and are solution oriented. 

Successful people don’t quit . . . . they may have to make adjustments to get them to their objectives . . . .but they don’t quit.

Your biggest breakthroughs in life will come in never quit trying . . . . and in keep going.

When everything is going against you . . . . step forward in the direction of your goals . . . . and keep going.

Believe In What You Can Do and Then Do It

Motivational Power Quote


Believe In What You Can Do and Then Do It


“Leadership is getting players
to believe in you.
If you tell a teammate you’re ready to
play as tough as you able to,
you’ll better go out there and do it.
Players will see right through a phony,
and they can tell when you’re
not giving it all you got.”
Larry Bird, NBA Hall of Fame


As I see it. . . . . . . .
Believe in what you can do and then do it

The most important judge of our actions is ourselves. We know when we’re making the best effort possible or when we’re just doing enough to get by.

When we do less then we need to do we cheat ourselves out of success.

Give it your best and don’t quit.

The Difference between Winning and Losing

Motivational Power Quote


The Difference between Winning and Losing


“Winners are losers
who got up and gave it
one more try.”
Dennis De Young, American songwriter, musician


As I see it. . . . . . . .
The difference between winning and losing can be measured in millimeters, not in inches, feet or miles.

Winners win by a thin margin.

Winners continue to try when others quit.

The winner’s secret of success is to fall forward and give it one more try, when others are giving up.

Winners understand that failure is an inside job and they will not participate in failure. They will not accept failure; they make a commitment to themselves to seek success and continue to move in that direction.

When things become challenging you can hear winners saying to themselves, “today I will not quit, I will give it one more try.”

Strength is Developed

Motivational Power Quote


Strength is Developed


“Strength does not come from winning.
Your struggles develop your strengths
when you go through hardships
and decide not to surrender,
that is strength.”
Arnold Schwarzenegger


As I see it. . . . . . . .
Strength is developed

Strength is not developed in what comes easy. Our real strength is developed through our struggles in life and overcoming our obstacles.

Remain firm in your convictions and work through your challenges.

When we decide not to quit we develop our true strength. It comes to the surface in the times of adversity, in staying the course we become the person that we were meant to be.
