There's only a moment.
A moment where you get to make the most important decision of your life. This moment arrives and can be gone in an instant. And there you are...moment upon you...with the ability to decide...
You either run away or run towards your fear.
The challenges that face us continue on no matter what. They will continue to test you daily if you are designed to rise to the greatest heights.
But you do get to decide.
Do you escape?
Or do you fight?
This moment came to me only a few days ago upon making one of the bigger decisions of my life. A moment that could have added massive amounts of confusion and yet brought about clarity. In a quarter of the year that was very confusing, stressful, and demanding that I step up to the plate and really give it everything I could have...this moment, a test, delivered a huge sigh of relief.
How could it bring about such peace?
How could peace come out of such a test?
Because once you make a decision to face your fears instead of run from them you become something far greater than who you are right now. You don't run scared. You don't surrender. Instead, you face what you were destined to face.
Forge ahead.
Don't quit when it gets hard.
You can just imagine the Captain of your ship gripping onto the helm as tight as possible screaming to his men to continue forward. There are no old ways. There's no turning back. There's only what's right in front of you.
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 when your purpose comes back, there is an endless fire inside raging to keep you moving ahead.
We must continuously strive to be the greatest versions of ourselves despite the fact that we come up short over and over again. We have to see beyond who we are now to keep ourselves growing and developing.
Yes failure is part of growing.
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 and the victories define you and make you into a bold soul that encourages any action that may bring on victory or defeat.
The ones who are quietly working in the late of night are our heroes.
