YOU CAN'T QUIT NOW!

Imagine yourself walking down the street. Now imagine after walking for some time, you decided to stop walking. Where would you be at? Right where you stopped right? That’s what it’s like spiritually when you decide to quit. To quit is to make a decision to stay in the same position. To quit is to say “Yes” to where you’re at. The worst place that you want to quit or stop at is where you're facing the most challenges. Why stop in the very place that you don't want to be. You’re going after your dream. You’re fulfilling your God-Given vision. You’re striving to win. Don’t think that the devil is going to let you by easy. Don’t think that he’s going to give you a free pass just because you decided to be somebody. Storms will come. Challenges will come. Troubles will come. Jesus said in the Bible,
“I have told you all this so that you may have peace in Me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”
John 16:33 NLT

Just because trouble comes doesn’t mean that it has to trouble you. Just because the storm comes doesn’t mean that it has to tear up your house (Luke 6:47-49). Use your ‘situation’ to make you ‘stronger’. Turn what’s meant to ‘break you’ into a ‘breakthrough’. But you can’t do this if you give up. You can’t quit now, because wherever you ‘stop’ at is where you ‘stay’ at.
“Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don’t quit.” ~ Conrad Hilton

You must keep moving. You must press forward. You must keep winning…
so keep winning.

I'm Thankful for YOU.

I have to admit. I'm a little overwhelmed right now with gratitude.
Just like you, I've had many highs and lows in life. But also like
you, I have survived. I have even overcome. It is such a wonderful
thing.

And now I get the awesome responsibility of helping multitudes of
people thrive, grow and live large. I'm so humbled by the assignment.
Thank you for being apart of my purpose and letting me do my job.

Take care of yourself today. Protect your dream...share it only with
those who can support you. Defend only peace. Even if you are
planning to spend time with folks who get on your last nerves.
Gird yourself. Don't lose your cool, and for goodness sakes stay focused.
Remember, just beyond the corner of this holiday season, you have
a great year ahead of you, we have work to do, and you don't need
distractions.

For now just be centered and grateful my friend.

Hugs & Happiness,
