Get Up, Stand Up...Don't Give Up The Fight

This could be the second line to Bob Marley's iconic song....or it could be a blog post that will change the way you look at things forever. Like I always said, I have been a super-believer, if such a term exists. I believe that everything is possible. Sometimes people label me as crazy because I try to make stuff happen despite everyone else just giving up.
That is me. I have a model in my head, a model that says, "Never give up."

There comes a time in our life when everything seems unfair. A time when our faith, our values, our patience, our compassion, our ability to persist, are all pushed to our limits and beyond - Tony Robbins. It is in these times that some people identify their true self and learn and excel, while it is in these same times that many fail and falter.

It is all a matter of beliefs. People who are unhappy and who live broken lives are often people without the results they have wanted for so long. They often believe that they can no longer produce the same results with their actions - Tony Robbins.

The difference is how you empower your belief system. Why is it that some of us live the exact same lives and yet product enormously different results. Others model excellence, while some model failure.

I want you to model excellence! There is no failure, it's only feedback. There is no end to the ups and downs in life. i have gone through so many downs lately that I can't even begin to count, and yet I manage to smile. The words: depression, frustration, anger do not even come to my mind. Yes I am not perfect. Yes I do get carried away and go through each of the above mentioned negative emotions, but I come back. And I stand up taller and I fight.

That is who I am....I am a fire sign....I am a fighter. I may not be 6 feet tall....I may not be externally strong, but internally, I am the ROCK! I have the power to change lives of people around me.

The above paragraph is my belief system. I recommend you start building your own belief system as well.

Never, Ever, Never, Ever, Never Ever....Give Up.

Life is too short, and too precious. Time wasted is time lost. Time that never comes back. But learn from the experience. Learn to live better than before with each passing day. That is the true essence of life.

Until next time,
