“Being challenged in life is inevitable, being defeated is optional.”
Roger Crawford
They say there are only 2 certainties in life, death and taxes, yet surely they forgot the third, that as long as there’s air in your lungs, you’ll face challenges.
Every single one of us is challenges in some way or another, for some its medical, for others the unexpected loss of a love one, but whatever it may be, we alone have the choice as to whether we will allow it to defeat us, or to inspire and lift us up so we can tackle greater challenges in the future, because no great dream is every achieved without first overcoming the great challenges that come as its price tag.
Next time you face a challenge, you also face a choice, will you let it defeat you, or will you stand up and yell ‘IT’S NOT OVER, UNTIL I WIN’? I hope It’s second option, the world needs more courageous people willing to face their challenges head on knowing that in doing so, they’re growing each step of the way.
Ask yourself today, ‘Faced with the choice next time life sends me a great challenge, will I step up, or will I give up?’
Have an Outstanding Day!
