Eat that Frog!

Finally, I'm "eating that frog!" He's been in my way for years and years even after I read "Eat that Frog!" by Brian Tracy read the book, listened to the CD and even did a presentation to a group of women I know, I still struggled to finish strong. This past week, my Pastor delivered a message about "Applied Diligence" and I realized that I was starting strong, following through and losing the momentum more than halfway along the way.

When I left that service, I purposed in my heart to apply diligence to every task in my life. There was too much low hanging fruit and starting a blog was one of them. I'm determined to finish stronger than I'm starting. How many of us procrastinate and set out to complete tasks, start tasks and then out of the "lack of time" fail to finish them? Well, in the past, I have been one of those people.

Earlier this week, a close friend and I exchanged our goals and I added "starting a blog" to my goal list. In order to achieve success, we must first define success. My favorite definition of success is by Brian Tracy "The ability to live my life the way I want, doing what I most enjoy, surrounded by people I love, admire and respect." I want to encourage, motivator and inspire others and the only way to do that is in the words of Nike-DO IT!

So, be prepared on this journey as I share my challenges and successes in hopes that you are motivated, encouraged and inspired to overcome all of the challenges in your life! The key? Always do your best and don't lose focus!

How do you define success?
