Tuesday's Two Cents: Keep Going

 

Building a business, growing a blog following, raising a farm, earning a degree, writing a book, getting healthy... Any undertaking is exhausting and often discouraging. But great accomplishments never guarantee ease or unending confidence on the journey to success.

It should be noted that one person's great accomplishment is not going to be the same as someone else's. What one person may see as small, another may see as monumental. But whatever your great-accomplishment-to-be is, take a deep breath, and keep going.

Tuesday's Two Cents: Life Is Too Short For Compromise

Only a few quotes I've found over the past few years have really blown me away. This is one of them, and it really leaves little to be said.

But being the writer I am, I can't help but just say this: whatever it is you really want to do, whatever dream it is, however crazy it may seem to most people--throw the "reasonable" you've been beaten over the head with out the window and do it. What dreams are ever reasonable anyway?

Tuesday's Two Cents: Climbing the Mountain

I know it probably seems like I was just here, listing just a few of the many things that are constantly going wrong with me in the health department. Thanks to being rescheduled, I now am finally to go back to the doctor tomorrow to get my stitches out and my biopsy results. And also to discuss yet another new, potentially very concerning problem that I have a feeling I'll have to go to yet another doctor for. It really never ends.

I just really wish the mountain was smooth. Just let me sit at the bottom and breathe and that's it for a while. But then we'd never get anywhere, would we?

I have no idea who originally said this, and Google doesn't either. But they sure nailed it.

Keep climbing.
