I attended (via Zoom) an amazing conference this past weekend.
There were a LOT of great speakers, but one of my favorites had these two gems:
“You need to be willing to give up what you want now, for what you truly want forever” and “discipline is the bridge between our goals and achievements.” – Dr Jennifer Knobbe
It was a great reminder and impetus for me to start re-building bridges to where I truly want to go.
It’s easy to get comfortable in the moment. It’s easy to do things that make us a tiny bit happier than putting in a tiny bit more work would.
It is imperative to refresh and to re-energize in order to succeed, but there are times and places for that.
I realized I was taking breaks when I should have been working on my dreams, AND taking breaks when I was supposed to be taking breaks.
Coasting never creates momentum (unless it is downhill).
We don’t need to push ourselves so hard that we give up. But, we all know when we could use a bit more push in order to succeed, and I am truly grateful for those reminders.
Thank you Dr Knobbe (and all the other amazing speakers, many of which I will probably quote in the coming weeks 🙂
Get building those bridges!
Happy Tuesday!
