MOTIVATIONAL MONDAY done early in the morning, so here's my contribution for MM, there's 2 of them to read today-both very good
ONR MORE
Before you quit, give it one more attempt. Before you stop, take one more step. While you have the opportunity, make an extra effort. The day will come when that extra effort can make an enormous positive difference.
You're far more effective when you get a little ahead, than when you have to catch up. Rather than stopping just as soon as you've pulled even, make that one more effort to put yourself ahead.
That way, when your big break comes along, you'll be in a position to make the most of it. That way, if times get tough, you'll be in a position to weather the storm. Do what must be done, and then do a little more. Take one more step, make one more effort every chance you get, and soon you'll be far, far ahead.
One more step isn't really that much. But, oh what a difference it can make.

BLESSINGS IN DISGUISE
If you look at your problems as problems, they will continue to hold you down. See them instead as blessings in disguise, and that is what they will truly become.
If you treat the challenges as excuses for failure, you'll have plenty of excuses but not much else. Approach those challenges instead as pathways to success, and that is precisely what they will be.
There is more than enough richness in life for all those who are willing to recognize it. That richness most often comes wrapped in challenge so as to keep its value intact.
For if the good things in life had no cost at all, they would not be worth very much. It is the effort, the discipline, the commitment to overcome any challenge, that makes a dream worth reaching.
So whatever stands in the way of your dream is really a blessing in disguise. For when you work your way through it, you arrive at the place you most want to be.
