Are you willing to go beyond familiar territory in order to reach the next level? Positioning yourself for victory requires that you be willing to leap out of your comfort zone into new territory. It also requires that you seek out and surround yourself with next level thinkers. Next level thinkers are not afraid of sacrifice and hard work. They understand that victory requires a carefully executed plan of action. Sometimes when you put yourself out there and decide to pursue something extraordinary, you begin to feel as though you have taken on too much. At this juncture, it might be tempting to give up. It might be tempting to go back to familiar territory. However, you must be confident in your abilities and stay in the game, if you expect to be victorious.
Growth stretches you, so growing is not always easy. In fact, although the end result of growth is rewarding, the process can be uncomfortable. Are you willing to persist through fear, rejection, disappointments and setbacks? As you journey towards growth and success, you are likely to experience one or more of the aforementioned tests. Individuals who position themselves for victory are confident in their abilities and they are determined to win. You cannot be victorious without confidence and determination. When you are pursuing victory, wisdom is a great asset, but it is not a necessity. You can have great wisdom. However, if you do not have determination and a strong work ethic, wisdom is useless. The urge to quit often becomes strong when you are close to reaching your goal. Push beyond what you believe is the most that you have to give. Do not just dream about victory….Make It Happen!
