The destination

When circumstances become more difficult, that’s no reason to water down your goals. Instead, raise your expectations so your objective is bigger than the challenge.

The factors pushing against you are not your biggest concern. What matters most is the importance of what you’re seeking to accomplish.

When your goal is consequential enough, you’ll find a way to make it happen. And you’ll persist in getting there.

Success is determined not by what you must overcome, but by your will to do whatever must be done. That’s what a strong sense of purpose gives you.

Be clear about what all your effort is for, and why it matters. Then you’ll eagerly do what is necessary to make that effort.

Although the road becomes highly demanding at times, you have what it takes to get there. Because you know and care greatly about what’s at the destination.
