FIST OF FAITH
DREAMS
Dreams are Goals with Deadlines. It is important that we develop a plan and that we write it down. This will become a contract with ourselves. The plan needs to have a long range goal (where do we want to be) and a series of short term goals (how are we going to get there?)
SACRIFICE
We must realize that whatever we want comes with a price and we must sacrifice… We have to give up some of our “fun” stuff in order to truly focus in our goals. Give it up for the GAME… Give it up for our GOALS.
DISCIPLINE
Self Discipline not the kind of discipline where we get punished but the kind of discipline that makes us focus on what is truly important and allows us to sacrifice for what is truly important. It is impossible to; Dream, Work hard, Sacrifice, or Persevere without Self Discipline!
HARD WORK
Dreams and goals do not come true without hard work. What ever plan we put into action we must realize that nothing is FREE!!! (WE ARE GUARANTEED AWESOME ABILITY and FREEDOM TO MAKE CHOICES) and we must truly work for all other goals and dreams. There is a difference in working hard and getting better.
PERSAVERANCE
All our days are not going to be perfect and we are possibly going to have more bad days than good. We must learn that it is a constant fight and a constant focus for us to be successful, and WE MUST PERSERVERE in order to be a Champion.
Stop whining… Focus… Determination
