Saw this today and wanted to share.
Goals are dreams with deadlines. Stop dreaming! I took control of my life and with the help of many wonderful people I was able to lose 135 pounds in 11 months. Set a goal, tell everyone who will listen, and stick to your plan. You can do it!!
I think it spoke volumes to me about your character when you handled your failures as well as you handle your successes. :) That's when I knew you were the real deal and not just a "sunshine soldier!" - happy when things go right, but downcast and discouraged when things go wrong. You stay positive no matter what and that's a great example to the rest of us!!!!
ReplyDeleteI like think there is no such thing as failure, only opportunities to learn how to do it better next time!
ReplyDelete:) I'm learning that!
ReplyDeleteAnd, I should clarify.... I have never, ever considered you a "failure." That was a poor choice of word and I'm sorry. I only meant when you didn't hit a particular goal that you'd set and worked really hard towards. You never give up! You finish with a smile! Always a success in my eyes.
ReplyDeleteNo worries, I know what you meant! ☺
