“The brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance, to show us how badly we want something.”
Today’s questions of the day, 1) How much are you willing to sacrifice? 2) What price are you willing to pay for greatness? These questions have impact and the answers lie within you. My inspiration to write about these subjects today is from one of my favorite inspirational motivators, @tombilyeu, you can find his videos on YouTube and Facebook.
When we think of sacrifice and greatness, the driving force to achieve anything in life is a willingness to see how far we want to go and a vision of where we want to be. To become the best you, you will have to fight for it.
Here‘s a fun exercise, think of the person you are today, at this very moment. Which category do you fall in? 1) You’ve achieved everything you’ve hoped to achieve, 2) You’ve achieved certain aspects you’ve hoped to achieve or 3) You are totally stuck or feel you’re going nowhere.
I highly doubt most people fall in the number one category, if so, then kudos to you. For the rest of us who fall in categories 2 and 3, that’s more normal than you think and the great thing is we all can get to #1. So let‘s circle back to the original questions at the start of this blog, key word is sacrifice.
Whichever category your at in your life today, just imagine for a moment how powerful and great you could be with a total transformation. To get there, you will fail, there will be days where your exhausted, where you will feel beaten, or feel like giving up. As long as you have that vision of who you want to become and you are willing to sacrifice to get there and are willing to suffer and endure, you will become capable of the extraordinary. Overcome the unstoppabe!
