Can't Stop



Yesterday, I came across this simple yet powerful quote: “If you can’t stop thinking about it, don’t stop working for it” and it made me really think about it. If you can't stop, then don't stop but do something about it.

There are two key words that strike me immediately when reading this statement and it is thinking and working. What is it that you are constantly thinking about? What are you continuously talking about? What consumes your thoughts? What are the things that are taking space in your mind? These are very important questions to ask yourself because ultimately that will lead to your passion; what really burns inside of you.  Once you’ve figured out that very thing or things that you can’t stop thinking about then the next question is: What are you doing about it? Are you working toward it? Are you working for it? Sometimes we get stuck at this point. We just think about it, we just wish upon it but in order to achieve it, you must reach for it. Action must be taken and action requires mobility and hard work!

I encourage you today that no matter what you have in your heart, and in your mind; work hard and push forward until you see it come into existence. Dreams are sowed in our heads, nurtured in our hearts and reaped through our hard work. You want to see your dreams blossom into a beautiful reality? Work hard! I wish it were easier but there are no shortcuts or easy way out. As I heard once, the way to success is by taking the stairs, not the elevator. "There is no elevator to success, you have to take the stairs". The elevator experience will never give you a true perspective of your journey.  As you’re taking the stairs to your place of destiny, enjoy the ride and the beautiful and not so beautiful scenery, for they are experiences that will mold you and shape you into the person you need to be in order to deliver the task you were called to do.

Remember if you can't stop, don't stop because there is a greater purpose that awaits you!

Be Encouraged, Be Blessed!
