Never underestimate the power of pain. It can make or break, destroy or elevate, breakdown or cause a breakthrough!
I've been knocked down by people, by words, by life but I refused to ever be knocked out. If there is an ounces of blood left, a beat in my heart, soul in my body I promise you I am getting back up, and I'm going to achieve greatness or die trying!
There is a certain strength that struggle, failure, and true pain gives someone. You develop a level or confidence, determination, hunger, and discipline unlike ever before. At the end of pain there is a reward, you find out the real definition of CHARACTER and PERSEVERANCE. And you will never look at life the same as you did before.
Everything changes the way you see life, people, and most of all opportunity when there seems to be none. Your ambition to never feel that pain, your commitment to keep moving forward, you no longer fear failure, and you embrace the struggle.
It feels like you don't drink the same water or breath the same air as other people that take their blessings for granite, blames others for their problems or who are satisfied with being less than, your on another level, and your now cut from a different cloth.
Your focused not on the task at hand anymore no more playing checkers, your 7 steps ahead of your competition making chess moves. Making moves to put you in positions to make better moves before anyone can see it, before anyone understands your reasoning. You see the bigger picture in life; that it's not about eye sight, it's about mind sight.
Then all of a sudden, Life start to slow up and people become predictable because you already seen what there going to do, you dreamed it, envisioned it, memorized it. You're a survivor, You don't play inside the box, under the old rules, you're a leader, trendsetter, path blazer!
You have learned that there is no box, no border, no ceiling only the one you put there, your not going to follow the rules you create them, you set the new standard of excellence, when you reach a certain level of greatness inside yourself!
You have to understand others will follow your light. Many of us are living in the darkness looking for that light to show us a way out.Waiting for you to shine your light, and that light is fueled by your Passion, Hunger, and Drive.
