“A duel in which you’re 100% sure of victory becomes just another boring exercise. When you give in your 100%, but you aren’t certain of victory, yet aren’t scared of losing, it becomes much more interesting.” ~ Ufuoma Apoki
When do we decide to put in our all? When things get tough? Slow? Tense? Boring? Frustrating? Stagnate? In the game of tug-of-war, there comes a moment in time when we give a little more. We dig our heels in and forget about the pain in our bodies. We release every last explosion of strength we have toward finishing strong.
What makes us feel like we have more inside? What helps us summon the courage, the power, the will to do one last tug? Possibility? Acknowledgment? Ego? Love? What motivates us to be stronger? Let’s start asking these questions about our personal growth, our relationships, and our dreams – not only when our careers require it. Instead of the “doing,” let’s focus on the “being” part of our humanness.
Make it a strong day!
