MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE OF THE DAY

“Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out they’ve got a second.  Give your dreams all you’ve got and you’ll be amazed at the energy that comes out of you.”            -William James 1842-1910, Psychologist, Professor and Author

ULTRA NATE`- GIVE IT ALL YOU GOT FEATURING CHRIS WILLIS  *******No matter what you are trying to accomplish–just having a hit is a feat.  Once the feat you’ve strived so hard to achieve has been accomplished, you may feel as if there’s nothing left to prove to yourself, or anyone else.  Does Tyler Perry or Donald Trump have anything left to prove to you?  I highly doubt they do, yet they’re still giving it all they’ve got well past they’re umpteenth wind.  Why?  Because you don’t just up and quit after succeeding for the first time.  You keep going until the passion is gone.  If it is a true passion, it will never, ever go away.*******
