What If

Imagine there are two people mining for gold at the same time, using the same equipment, and they are in the same location. Both miners were given a plan to follow knowing that gold lies in this mine a certain distance away. They both become weak and exhausted due to the long hours in the mine. One person throws in the towel (quits) because they have been there for several days with no results to show for it.
The other continues to dig in the mine following the plan and knowing that gold is close. A few days pass and finally....gold is found.
While this may be a fictional story, it can be directly compared to real life. Just replace "mining for gold" with anything. Starting a business. Setting a goal. Working towards a promotion. Just to name a few.
What if right now, you have traditionally been the person that has given up. You have lacked the abilility to execute the exact plan to get you where you want to be. How much different would your life look like if you pushed that little more and stuck to the plan? I am willing to bet your life would look drastically different than now.
I think that most of us have had an experience similar to this. We have all been in a spot where we had a plan and did not execute the plan to the fullest potential. My goal is to stop that cycle within you. Purely for you to become the person you have always dreamed of being.
Be the second miner. Never give up because the plan is meant to get you where you want to be. You have been so close.
Now, there is no way to guarantee that following the plan will definitely get you to your goal . What I can guarantee you is, if you give up, you immediately forfeit any chance of reaching your goal.
All you need to know is that the plan is the best chance you have at reaching your goal. Use the steps within the plan to drive you forward when the days get tough. It is inevitable that days will be hard and you will want to quit. This is a fact that you now know some days will be extremely hard and can expect that feeling.
Be the person that no matter what life throws in your face, no matter what battles you face, there is no chance of you giving up on your dreams. Continue to execute your plan and evaluate where you are at. Because What If.
