Whenever I get discouraged, I remember my mom saying,
"It's darkest before the dawn."
She sent this wisdom to me in a letter during a very tough season of my life.
And I've never forgotten it...
Because she passed away 3 days later.
It's deeply embedded in my heart.
Most people give up just when they're about to have a breakthrough.
They quit on the one-yard line at the last moment.
People who refuse to give up are the ones who realize their dreams.
The longer you persist, it's likely something will happen in your favor.
You learn the truth about yourself and develop character.
History shows many who attained extraordinary achievements had heartbreaking obstacles before they attained success.
"No" is a constant response on your journey to "Yes".
If you stick it out, you'll eventually reach your goal.
Remember...
Every failure will reveal an alternative way if you're looking for it.
Persevere until you discover an approach that works.
Struggles are opportunities for better possibilities...
And they're stepping stones to your accomplishments.
When one door closes, another opportunity to grow opens.
Are you ready to walk boldly through the gateway of a magnificent future?
