Life can get pretty hairy sometimes. Whether it is due to time constraints, or a lot of work to do, a lot of children, accidents, problems, weather, anything that can cause an issue can turn your life into a bit of hell. Getting out of that hell can take time, and there is no “quick fix”, but what you have to do is keep going. Don’t stop, don’t look back – you’re not going that way. The only time you should look back is to see how far you have come. The oak had to fight its way through the soil, it had to send its roots downwards, fighting against stones, clay, chalk, anything that could impede it. Then the other side, it has to deal with rains, heat, storms, ravages of all kinds of weather, but it still manages to survive. Against all adversity, it grows, and it looks resplendent when it has reached its full potential. As can you. If you feel you are going through hell, keep going (Winston Churchill). You can do it. Have faith in yourself.

Where There Is Love There Is Life
That’s how I feel sometimes: a nut job who just won’t quit! But, I’ve finally come to relish it!
When you feel like quitting, that is the time to look back to see how far you have come and think of all that time you would have wasted. Glad you won’t quit 🙂
I’m still a nut – LOL 😛
Very true 😉
Last full week to go…. and I need those quotes again… thanks Al!
Thanks for the awesome quotes, like I said once, I take more time to read more of YOUR words, than the ones you quote. You always speak from the heart my friend and I so much appreciate you!!
Much love Al. 🙂
Thank you Seyi, I really do appreciate that.

Hey… I was once a nut…
Once?
oh… right
The third one reminds me of “If you’re not pissing somebody off, then you’re not doing your job right!” Bill Camp
Haha I love that one
I also like the quote “Those who say it can’t be done, should stay out of the way of the ones who are doing it!” LOL!
My pet peeve phrase is: We’ve never done it THAT way before! grrrrr….
Exactly! Whether it’s business, politics, religion or overall culture, change is always necessary.
It is, and some people are scared of change so try to stop people who embrace it
That’s one that I have been thinking of using – or that phrase but worded differently.
“You can’t do it”
“Sorry, don’t like t” (take off the t so it says you can do it) Yeah, I know – it’s naff because I just made it up LOL
Thanks as always for making my Monday mornings better. 🙂
Glad to be able to help
Very inspirational, loved it Al
