It's a brief moment.
There's this little moment that comes upon you like a whisper in the dark. It's just there for a second and then it can be gone. But oh how important it is.
Run away or run forward.
The challenges never end. They come upon you without mercy and test your resolve, foundation, and character without rest. The challenges are there to teach you and see what you are made of.
But the big decision to be made is all yours.
Do you run?
Or do you fight?
This moment tested me only a few days ago and was waiting for me to break. But I didn't. Rather, I faced the moment head on and forged ahead into the challenges that were due to come.
But how do you make that decision to forge ahead?
How could more pressure settle everything?
You dig deep down into your soul and understand exactly who and what you stand for. When you know what you are all about, it is far easier to face your fears.
So forge ahead.
Don't quit when it gets hard.
In a sense, you can almost see the Captain of a ship deciding to head straight into the challenging waters and urging his men to keep their faith. Similarly, you have to do this with your fears.
Many times we will lose our focus and momentum.
I was looking constantly to see if the end result was there and it was always "just right around the corner." But I didn't see the whole thing through. I didn't stay according to plan because of discouragement.
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 pride in your persistence.
Take pride in the effort you have given in the past.
The scars you carry and the victories you have had define you as a great soul that has never stood in the stands wondering "what if?"
The ones who work in the dark of night are our heroes. They are the ones who constantly forge ahead no matter how bad things may have been.
