Keep Going

Written by guest blogger:

Each year we are faced with new trends and the confused options of following them, or going the opposite way. Should I buy another pair of Jodeci boots?  The answer is… Do what you like, if that’s what you want to do.  This is the same for your dreams. Just because there are other businesses, like the one you have in mind, does not mean you cannot go out there and open yours.

I think one of the problems is so many people are doing things that are for profit and not for passion.
  When we do things, without passion, the fire that got us started quickly fizzles out.  Then we are left with bills and merchandise and feelings of failure.  This is not to discourage those who have a knack for selling water at the beach, but how long will that last before boredom strikes? Passion will keep you going even when others say you can’t.

Goals are dreams awakened.  Creativity does not rest.  It will wake you up in the middle of the night, have you daydreaming in a board meeting and even interrupt a semi-good conversation.  These are all signs that you have a bigger goal in life.  Sometimes this can be overwhelming, but the end results are well worth it.

Everything we desire is attainable through hard work, a great support system and, and the knack to dust yourself off and try again.  They say the sky is the limit. And it is, if that is what you are reaching for.  The universe is made up of galaxies that no man can count, let alone limit.  This also applies to your dreams. Dreams are goals waiting to be met.  Every day those dreams will get louder and louder and you can either make them a reality, or ignore them until they fizzle away.


We grow because of our failures. We learn from our mistakes. We find strength when it’s the only option. I encourage each of you to keep dreaming and to keep moving forward.  Life takes us on amazing journeys that should be faced with enthusiasm, courage and faith. No matter the outcome, you will always come out stronger, and wiser, than you were before.


Peace and blessings!
