Personal and shared success is satisfying

The most satisfying outcomes in life are never the easy ones.
They are usually the result of greater effort in the face of increased odds.
The more we achieve the greater our confidence becomes.
Inner strength is a resolve that tells us to “give it our best shot”.
We should not confuse confidence with “cockiness” though.
“Cocky” people shout a lot to distract us from noticing they aren’t doing much personally whereas confident people get their head down until the job is done.
Without perseverance it’s impossible to see a task to its conclusion.
The more times we aim high and achieve the more we believe that the Impossible is not beyond us.
Big challenges may have to be taken in stages but even small steps are moving forward.
Most things can be improved and many obstacles can be resolved.
Being overly self reliant though can trip us up.
Understanding the role of others and taking them along with us gets the job done more quickly and helps others to learn to stretch themselves too.
People who might not cope with a “full load” can often be developed by beginning to succeed with a “half load” and encouragement.
We never stop learning and improving if we engage with the challenges presented to us.
Competing with ourselves and working with others in a supportive way breeds a positive spirit and produces personal and shared success.
It brings huge satisfaction.
Reach forward...but take those behind you forward too.
