Keys to Success

     Throughout the journey to the top, there are always failures and disappointments.  There are always bumps in the road and at times, you will find yourself stranded in a lake of motivation-draining muck that seems to have no end.  It can be more than discouraging and if you allow it, the downward spiral of events can lead to turning away from the goals that you were attempting to achieve.  When this moment arrives, there is only one key to success that will be your saving grace.
     When your back is against the wall and you are ready to quit, then it's time to turn to consistency.  You may not make it to the finish line, but you when consistency is put into play, at least you will be choosing to continue the race.  Instead of calling it a day and moving on to something else, stick with routine and push forward with the march.  Don't let the hiccups of life take your dream from you.  Thomas Edison says it best. "Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success."  When you hit the wall and you have no motivation to continue forward, then lean against the wall with consistency.  You won't break the wall down, but you will weaken it with the applications of consistent force.
