AYD - May 27, 2013 - Go On...Pull Your Weight.

"Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race. "
- Calvin Coolidge

I call upon your Persistence today. 

We call this Opportunity Monday, but we also understand that Monday still brings a host of cloudy distractions all listed neatly in our brains, but in no particular order, under the one main Heading off to the left of center on the calendar. 

Rolling from the left to right we often load up our cart so that as we begin to dig in our feet to launch our shoulders forward we may liken our weekly starting line to strapping ourselves to a locomotive engine and giving it the old heave ho.  We create the dramatic visual, we open the valve to release all positive energy at the mere thought of such a task and low and behold we have let the idea of the start...thoroughly exhaust our Positive feed before we have even begun.

Persistence.  Opportunity Monday.  Persistence in our thinking preceeds our persistence in our actions.

As you think, so it shall be.  OPPORTUNITY.  BEGINNING. PERSISTENCE

I know you can.

Good Morning, Great Day.
Greater You, is a better influence on everyone around you.
