Dear John,

Are you being:

Forged in the fire?

Sharpened against the grindstone?

Purified under the pressure?

Do you want Success In Spite Of?

Are you moving forward and growing anyway?

When the tough times come, and they always do, you have a choice.

You can choose to sit down, give up, check out, and spiral to a lower level.

Or

You can choose to step up, persevere, check in, and grow to the next level.

In fact, the furnace, the grinder, and the pressure are exactly all of the things that can shape you into that person of discipline, tenacity, determination, and grit that you were created to become. Much of your growth will depend on how you view your situation. When you have a clearly defined Why and a higher Purpose, the setbacks in your life turn into the setups for an Epic and Legendary life story.

I am so grateful that YOU CHOOSE TO WIN!

Be Epic and Legendary today!

(Legends are not created in warm baths)
