JFK once said: “We choose to
go...not because [it is] easy, but because [it is] hard, because that goal will
serve to measure and organize the best of our energies and skills, because that
challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to
postpone, and one which we intend to win.”
If we want to reach our full
potential we must challenge ourselves. These challenges don’t have to be huge
and all inspiring. They can range from as simple as starting a healthier diet
to learning a new sport to asking someone out to inventing something to
starting a business. But we must challenge ourselves daily.
“Consistently challenging yourself
to achieve outside of your current abilities is extremely important if you want
to achieve greatness in your life,” counseled Hooman Hamzehloui.
Wise words came from William
Bennett when he said, “Give yourself an even greater challenge than the one you
are trying to master and you will develop the powers necessary to overcome the
original difficulty.”
The point of a challenge isn’t to
prove to others that you can accomplish great things but to give confidence to
your inner soul. May we all challenge ourselves in one way or another starting
today so that we can become greater individuals!
“You must do the thing you think
you cannot do.” -Eleanor Roosevelt-
....And the journey continues!!!
