Perseverance is doing whatever it takes to achieve your goal. Sometimes it’s hard, and sometimes it’s damn hard, but the key in those times is to not give up.
You have a dream, you have a vision, don’t give up on that. If the way you’re going about it isn’t working, get creative and find another way. Get resourceful, bring someone in who can help you overcome that challenge you face, like a fierce coach.
They won’t let you quit and they’ll remind you every step of the way that your dream, your vision is possible.
So don’t give up on this dream, this vision, it means too much to you. Persevere, do whatever it takes.

Embarking on a new path often feels like jumping off a cliff. You can see this grand vista below where you want to go and what you want to accomplish but it will take letting go of control, falling for a bit and trusting the process that you will land on your feet.
And if you don’t land on your feet, still trust the process that you’ll figure out a way to get back up. Because the real learning and growth isn’t from landing a perfect 10 it’s from figuring out how to get back up after you fall (fail).
So if you’re about to embark on a new path, quit hesitating and letting fear hold you back. Jump with both feet in and just trust the process.

“People do not decide to become extraordinary. They decide to accomplish extraordinary things.”
~ Sir Edmond Hilary ~
Don’t just set your sites on something that makes you comfortable. Set your sights on something that scares you, that brings doubt whether you can accomplish it or not.
Those are the things that will grow you. Those are the things that will be extraordinary.

The world is waiting for your gift, so please stop hiding it and ignoring it based on some fear that was made up long before your gift was.
You have it inside, this thing that is only yours, that you do like no one else. It’s where you make an impact, it’s where you change lives, it’s the thing that someone else is searching for. And you’ll know it’s your gift, because when you do it, it sets your soul on fire.
So go on then, what are you waiting for?
This life will pass you by and don’t make the mistake of leaving with the fire still inside.

Your goals don’t care that it’s raining out…or thundering.
Last Saturday, if you’re local to Vancouver and remember it was dumping rain along with thunder and lightening in the late morning. But the weather didn’t know that I had committed to running 16k that day for my half marathon training for San Diego. And it didn’t care either. And my goal didn’t care about any excuses I would have about getting the task done that I committed to.
So, I geared up, got out there and ran my 16k. And I felt amazing as I listened to my new playlist, A New Happy, and ran amongst the giant firs and cedars and beautiful nature that defines the West Coast.
A few years ago I never thought I could run this far. But through sticking to my goals, rain, snow or shine, I now can do things I never thought I could do. And knowing this, it only gets better from here!
