AWAKEN TO POSSIBILITY!

Events that take place in our lives are seldom predictable, much less controllable. Sometimes we work for weeks or months toward a goal, only to have our efforts thwarted in the home stretch.

When confronted with these situations, we find ourselves wishing for other choices. Wouldn’t it be great if we were not in the predicament we find ourselves? Wouldn’t it be great if such-and-such had not happened? Wouldn’t it be great if we could turn back the clock?
        
                  The fact is: we have none of these options.

Newton’s First Law of Motion states, ‘An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion.’ It’s time to get it in gear. It’s time to make things happen. Granted, it will be challenging to build momentum from a complete standstill. It is easy -almost reassuring in a strange way- to look behind us and justify all the reasons that have us frozen in our tracks.

But where does that get us?! It’s only a little bit tougher, yet far more rewarding, to look to the horizon and take the next step -however small- and keep moving forward!  Every step forward makes the next step easier!

Imagine what it would be like to take that step – and the next, and the next, and the next! -- with a buddy, a champion, a cheerleader – someone who will be on your side and hold you accountable -- an unflaggingly encouraging coach!
