Don't Quit

Have you ever started a project and months later you look over at the corner of the room or in a closet where it has been pushed aside?

What about a personal relationship or with a business?

Have you ever started working to reach a dream or a true desire to only give up when you became frustrated?

In order to succeed in anything that you want to do in life, you must have a core desire. A core desire is a want and a need to get to a certain place in your life. It will make you laugh and make you cry. Each and every one of us has something we want or need. It may be totally different than the person beside you and that is what makes you unique.

So many times our dreams and goals are beaten down by others before we even start to create a path to achieve it. One thing to always remember is if someone is telling you what you can or cannot do, they are not YOU. Only you can decide what your path is. No one else can. If you let them get in your way..... You are allowing someone else to control you and your life.


One of my coaches gave me a coffee mug at Convention 06 and this is what it reads:

Don't Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will.
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill.
When you’re feeling low and the stress is high
And you want to smile but you have to sigh.
When worries are getting you down a bit..
By all means pray - and don't you quit.
Success is failure turned inside out.
God's hidden gift in the clouds of doubt.
You never can tell how close you are -
it may be near when it seems so far.
So trust in the lord when you're
Hardest hit.
It's when things go wrong
That you must
NOT QUIT!

So anytime I hit a block in the road I look at that mug and realize if I quit, I will never know what really could be around the next corner!
