Self Sacrifice and Progress

What's going on blog world? I think this is the first blog I've written in a while that has kind of been influenced by my own current actions. I've been struggling with staying the course and keeping the faith with some of the major actions in my life but from some conversations I've had and my own soul searching, I've realized that I would not have been brought this far by God to simply be left here to fend for myself or even worse, to be stuck in this same predicament. So that's what I want to address real fast in terms of myself and just general terms...

I feel that as people get older and the challenges that they face begin to increase in difficulty, it is obviously more difficult to overcome them. However, I think these challenges are made even more difficult because people don't take the time to realize that they are stronger as well. This strength is not always so noticeable but with a little time and reflection it is evident. Strength is not measured in dollar amounts or social standing but in the inner character that those on the outside don't always see but is there nonetheless. I've struggled with trusting my own abilities at times and even with more pushing myself towards a goal but at the end of the day, your own support and your religion is all you really need to make something out of yourself..

It's very easy to doubt if what we are doing on this Earth is amounting to anything and I feel that looking at the end result can sometimes dismay people from achieving their goals. Now, I'm not saying that you should not hold on to your dream of graduating, starting your own business, going to the NBA, or whatever it may be...but don't worry as much about how long it takes to get to the end result. If you don't stop and take in all that is around you, you'll truly regret it at the end. You never want to forgot what it took to make you what you are. The time forming your character should be of the utmost importance. At the same time, as you are possibly struggling with achieving your goal, just hold on to the faith that this is all apart of the process of you becoming a success...

Belief in yourself is 90% of the battle because if you are not supportive of your own goals...who will be? There is no greater investment than in your own self (only perhaps topped by that of investing in your child) and you should eliminate all restrictions that prevent you from becoming the best, most positive, most succesful and most humble servant of this world that you can become.
