Performing the magic

Every step you take on the journey gets you that much closer to your destination. Every purposeful effort you make brings you closer and closer to your goal.

When you are taking intentional, directed action, you are making progress. You are creating the very rewards you seek.

When you become weary, take a moment to remind yourself why you’ve chosen to go where you’ve chosen to go. When you feel a tinge of discouragement, overwhelm it with positive anticipation for the good and valuable place where you’re headed.

Not only can you do it, you are doing it. You are performing the magic of transforming dreams into reality.

What you’re doing is difficult and burdensome in some ways. And yet it is also truly amazing, because you’re creating value that never existed before.

Continue the effort, continue to persist, and continue performing the magic. And delight in the outstanding rewards it brings.

— Ralph Marston
