RE: Quote of the Day #48: The Struggle Is Real, But So Is Success!

in #dailyquotes8 years ago (edited)

One of my favourite inspirational people that I follow here. Struggle, but struggle smart, give everything you can to make it happen. I have to object to the main idea spread by most of the people that the journey is the success and not the destination. The journey is the struggle and sweat that brings you to your success, to your destination. Simple put, if you travel to a remote vacation destination, you will not put as success the time spent in the plane for 10 hours, you say I made it when you arrive there and sit on the beach. The struggle brings to your target.

Keep always the target in mind ;)

I love how you said that @alexvan. Let me look at it from a differing perspective.

Let's say you've struggled in your business making sales calls, doing presentations to prospective clients, following up on details of deals when you should be sleeping and you're missing out on time with friends & family, then ONE DAY, you book a trip to an exotic destination, you get set to go, you hit the friendly skies and that 10 hour flight is you reveling in the struggles of what got you to the first class cabin, with lobster and filet for lunch as you look out at the world 30,000 feet below, champagne in hand, and you just know it is full of so much potential and possibility, that when you land at your 'destination', you will likely be filled with the next idea, or the next struggle to put yourself through in order to level up even more.

The tropical locale is essentially not the destination of success but a stopover on the way. The moment we stop attempting to achieve grater things and to bigger 'destinations' and hitting larger TARGETS, we regress and go backwards towards the petty struggles and further away from the destinations that we truly desire and thirst after. Perception is all this is, we are all right in our endeavors and our goals, make the outcomes and the realities of these struggles worth it. Like you said, keep the focus and hit the target!

By the way, I find your tactic interesting how you power up this account ;)

Well said, well said. This is exactly my point. Have a target, focus on the target, hit the target and up to the next one. Rinse and repeat, but the purpose is to hit it, feel the motivation that comes with it and up to greater challenges!

Cheers brother, you got this @alexvan :)
