Beauty in the Journey

Keep focused on where you want to go in life and who you want to become…but don’t forget where you’ve been and who you once were. The road of life isnt always smooth pavement, it tends to be filled with sharp bends, potholes, unwanted detours & numerous wrong turns. Navigating those areas, the rough parts, learning and growing from each detour and wrong turn, picking yourself up and patching the damage from the potholes…continuing to move forward…that is what your journey is all about. Look back on the rough times, appreciate them for the growth they inspired and the strength and character those times helped mold in you. The beauty in your journey comes when you realize that you can  take a less than favorable situation, turn it around and make something positive out of it. Use it to propel you forward, not hold you back. Your journey isn’t over, there are still lessons to be learned and growing to do but, man..look how far you’ve come!!

Today is your day!

I’ve learned, especially within the past few years, that you can’t be encumbered by the things you can’t change from your past or the fears you have of your future. Live today, fully. Find your purpose and embrace it. Close your eyes and imagine the person you aspire to be…and then…be. Make it happen. True failure only comes when you stop trying. Every single day is a fresh start. If yesterday wasn’t the greatest, shake it off! Today is your day to do something great! Make it count!
