There
is only one way to accomplish your goals. And that is by diligently pursuing
them, doing so relentlessly with determination and fortitude.
Diligence
is the golden key of all worthy achievements, for it is the power to
consistently and persistently engage our energies and efforts to their attainment.
To be diligent implies giving constant, careful, steady attention to something.
In other words, it means to know what you want, go after what you want and
refuse to stop until you get what you want. This is the attitude that wins in
life.
Everyone
who has done something deserving of attention has employed diligence to make it
happened. No one can be truly successful without this powerful force. Many of
us make new goals every year. We call them New Year’s Resolutions. What is
interesting however is that some of these goals are the same ones we made the
previous year, or even before that. We never attained them. They did not become
reality. Amidst the fact that some goals and dreams take years to fully manifest,
one cannot help to think that the obvious reason most goals are not realized is
because the actions and sustained actions necessary to bring them to fruition
are not implemented effectively and sufficiently.
Indeed
it would be startling to do a survey as to how many of us have failed to
realize our dreams, not because the timing was not right, but because we simply
did not give our all and pursue them. In other words, we were not diligent.
Ask
any successful person and they will tell you they won in life because they
determined to do so.
They will share with you the hurdles they had to
over-come, the giants they had to slay, the challenges they had to face and the
pressures they had to endure. They will convince you of, not just their
victories, but also of their struggles, as they learned to push pass things
which otherwise may have convinced them to stop, and just when things looked
the worst, that extra push, that extra action, that determined drive made the
difference and brought them into their desired place in life. No one wins
without being determined to do so. Diligence is the master key to achievement.
Your
goal is within reach if you are prepared to do what it takes, and do enough of
what it takes to make it a reality. You actually have more for you than against
you. The Great Creator of the universe is for your success. He is willing to
help you and empower you so that you can see your dreams come to pass. But in
the final analysis, whether you succeed or not is up to you. The choices you
make determine your fate.
This
is a point some do not want to accept and would argue with. After all, it is
human nature to blame all seemingly bad happenings on God, regardless of the
part that we had to play in the ordeal. The truth of the matter is that the
Sovereign One so desires for us to win in life, He has provided the ways and
means for us to overcome our negative situations and win in life.
So
you and I have more for us than against us. We can see our dreams become a
reality. We can enjoy life, experiencing the sweet taste of conquest and
victory over and over again. We are able to defeat our giants, literally
bursting through every limitation that presents itself, making a mark in this
world which is never erased or forgotten. The question is not, Can my dreams
come true? The real question is, Am I prepared, with God’s help, to do what it
takes to see them happen?
Successful
people apply diligence to their goals and dreams. That is why they win in life.
