8 Reasons To Never Give Up On Your Dreams

I'm gonna keep it real with you right here.... we ALL go through ups and downs in life. 

It gets frustrating when we think we're on the right track, but realize we're way off, we have relationship issues, we get bad news about someone we love, a deal falls through, the list goes on....

Before you even think about giving up, I wanted to let you know that you're probably closer than you think!

All that matters is what you CHOOSE to focus on, the positive or the negative.

Here's 8 Reasons You Should Never Give Up On Your Dream:

1) When you were a kid you hade HUGE hopes & dreams. Sometimes, when the "real world" hits us, and we start to grow up, we let the ups and downs of life cloud our vision. Then, as adults, we forget how to even dream anymore. Think back to when you were a kid. You felt UNSTOPPABLE!

2) You're alive! That alone is a big blessing. That's reason enough to know that you're still here for a purpose. You might not even know what that purpose is, yet... but just keep working harder on yourself than anyone or anything else, and you'll be successful. Preparation always meets opportunity!

3) Where you're at is not where you're going. I remember back when I first started as a Beachbody coach, I literally thought I was going to become a Millionaire overnight. Success really doesn't work like that, at all. Any successful person you see has put in the sweat and tears it takes to master something. Work hard in whatever your current situation is, with goals to take it to the next level from there. When you're faithful with the little things you'll be trusted with more!

4) Your big break could be right around the corner. If you give up now, you'll never know what could have been, and there's no worse feeling than knowing you're not living up to your full potential.

5) Your dream is bigger than you think. We all have a vision of what success looks like to us, but there's usually a bigger plan for our lives than we currently realize. Bigger than we ever imagined! Just because things don't look the way you thought they would yet, doesn't mean that it's not working. See your goals all the way through.

6) It's all about the Journey! We're in such a rush to get where we're going, that we forget to even enjoy the ride. We tend to want everything like yesterday. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the "wait", because it's the journey that makes it all worth it when you do reach your goals.

7) You have help! I don't know what your faith is or isn't, but I believe there's a higher power than myself. This takes the pressure away of having to worry "how" everything is going to happen. I just work hard, pray, and have faith that God will help me with the rest.

8) There's something inside of you that you just can't stop thinking about. If that wasn't true you probably wouldn't have read this far. You're looking for answers to help you get where you're going faster. Whatever that thing is inside of you that just won't quit... 9 times out of 10 that's your purpose. 

These are all things I've had to remember along my journey, and they help me wake up every day knowing I'm meant for greatness. And so are you!
