Ant and the Elephant
January 09, 2007
I get to meet some distant cousins last night at the airport and it seem that everyone had grown up so much that I hardly recognize some of them. Some of these kids were so cute and adorable when they were younger and then they grow up to be a whole different person. Isnt that thought just scary? For you parents out there, who still think that your children are going to be the same when they grow up. Newsflash, they are not. Unless you are talking about Avishek, my mentors son who is the most positive kid I have ever met.
I took this from the book The Ant and The Elephant by Vince Poscente:
We live in a world of instant gratification, but we need to fight that pressure and remember that the worthiest goals take time and energy.
We all grow up wanting rewards as soon as we finish doing something. However most people do not realize that the best and most worthy accomplishments will take time. Therefore I was so relieved that yesterday I ended my drought season. I was about to get use to being sore and being accustomed to challenges. Thank goodness I stop myself.
Success comes after work and there is no such thing as accomplishing success without work. So if you choose to remain being nobody significant, it is no ones fault but your own for not letting yourself take that first step in believing in yourself.
