The race is not to the swift nor the battle for the strong...

I ASK YOU A QUESTION

IS THERE ANYTHING THAT CAN MAKE YOU STOP?

Well!, it's a rhetorical question...
Many times, when embarking on a journey or getting involved in something(project, business, career development etc) the initial excitement is always huge but guess what? The initial excitement may not always stay till the end of the project. Can you ever stop when it seems as though there's no better option, no positive response, no encouragement from within and without? When it seems as though no one cares, no enough finances to finish that which you've started? When mocked and pushed away, the expectations are not met and no clearer picture of the accomplishment? When its as though you shouldn't had started, when you're now the gossip of your mates?

WHAT'S THAT ONE THING THAT CAN MAKE YOU STOP?

Starting a race may be easy but to finish strong you must burn your bridges. When it looks as if all the inspiration, motivation and encouragement are gone remember one thing

• Realise the fact that For every race you run, you're the factor
  You're your inspiration, motivation and your encouragement. Anyone can start something or be involved in something but these are the factors that distinguishes that successful person from others
• Passion
  The passion to finish that which you've started is key. Passion is that fuel which you require to keep painting and making clearer the picture of that which you want to accomplish.

PASSION PERSUADES

When you're first convinced from within that the task at hand will be accomplished you'll be driven to act in accordance with the compelling force for the actualization of the set goal..

• Clarity of Purpose
  
  Until your goals are well defined, you may not be inspired enough to get it done. Often times you must have seen businesses that started pretty well fold up, I mean businesses that was once the talk of every citizen.

When purpose is unknown, abuse is inevitable

Why did you Start?

Is it worth it?

What value will it create?

Until you take all these questions into consideration and answer them diligently, you may never have the clarity of why you're doing that which you're involved in.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO START AND NOT FINISH? THE ANSWER IS YES?
If you don't consciously create and live in the appropriate place of your set goals in your mind, you may never have it outwardly. The mind has the ability to bring every thought and imagination from within into being. Your Mind is the most powerful tool which God had blessed you with. Your imaginative ability is your creative ability. Once you can imagine it, live in it, you'll always have it outwardly.
The clarity of your purpose is well defined with and in your mind.
Never give up or give in, you're that "STOPPING FACTOR". Remember, The contrary wind drives our roots deeper. So when you're in that place where you feel like giving up; just remember these things

• WHY YOU STARTED
• YOUR PURPOSE FOR STARTING
• YOU'RE YOUR NUMBER ONE LIMITATION IF ANY
  Stop looking at the contrary wind, stay focus until you win.
