Prove it

This is a speech i have been reading every morning and night for the last week or so, i thought i should share it.

Life is tough, that's a given.
When you stand up, you're gonna be shoved back down.
When you're down, you're gonna be stepped on.
My advice to you doesn't come with a lot of bells and whistles. It's no secret, you'll fall down, you stumble, you get pushed, you land square on your face. And every time that happens, you get back on your feet. You get up just as fast as you can, no matter how many times you need to do it.
Remember this, success has been and continues to be defined as getting up one more time than you've been knocked down.
If experience has taught me anything, it's that nothing is free and living ain't easy. Life is hard, real hard, incredibly hard. You fail more often than you win, nobody is handing you anything.
It's up to you to puff up your chest, stretch your neck and overcome all that is difficult, the nasty, the mean, the unfair.
You want more than what you've now, PROVE IT!
You want beat the very best out there that is, get out there and earn it!
Once you decide that, you'll know where it is you want to be, then you won't stop pushing forward until you get there! That's how winners are made. At the end of the day, success is what we all want.
We all wanna win, and the race will be won. There is no question about that. So c'mon, get out on top, run faster, dream bigger, live better than you ever have before. This is in you. You can do this. Do it for yourself. Prove it to yourself!

This gives me a lot of motivation to go on, i feel i have been knocked down with a sucker punch to the back of the head with no explanation or knowing were the hit came from. Nothing i can do but go on and get back up swinging, i will get there just watch.

Where did you find that quote? It is so motivating! I may copy it and put it on my bathroom mirror.

Just thought I'd share one of my favorites:

"God, who knows our capacity perfectly, placed us here to succeed. No one was foreordained to fail or be wicked. When we have been weighed and found wanting, let us remember that we were measured before and found equal to our task. Therefore, let us continue, but with a more determined dicipleship". (Neal A. Maxwell)

Tyler your post is great. I like the r-ball picture and your talk about just keep swinging. What works for me is to stay so busy you don't have time to think if you are up or down. You missed one thing and that is to pray because HE is the one that helps pick us up when we fall. God bless you in the days to come.

I really like that quote. It's nice to know that all it takes is one more stand. As long as we are standing at the end of the day we win! I'm copying that quote. It's awesome!
