Dream makers vs. Dreams breakers: Adversity

Let’s go back to what can make or break your dreams. This week I want to talk about your attitude in adversity.

It is really easy to follow your dreams and remain committed to your goals when all is well and going your way. The real test comes in time of adversity… when things are not going so well and you are hurt, very hurt. This is where your mind is testing you to see how bad you want that dream to come true.

When times are hard and you don’t feel like anything matters anymore, it’s when you need to press forward and make it happen. You need to reach a point in your determination that, even when you don’t feel like you want to put the energy, your mind and body feel like it is not a choice; they must get up, keep on going and make it happen.

What happened is, if you do not keep on going, when that moment of adversity end (yes I am implying that it will end) you will find yourself so far behind that discouragement will kick in and rub you of your goal; however if you keep working on your goals despite how you feel, you’ll be glad when its all over.

Winston Churchill said it best “if you're going through hell, keep going.”

Be blessed,
