22 years ago today was the day prior to me graduating from USMC Boot Camp at MCRD Parris Island, S.C.
One of the proudest moments of my life was when my Grandparents were asked to sit next to the base General due to their grandson (me) being Honor Man of his platoon.
My Grandpa was a Pearl Harbor Navy Veteran and when he passed away my Grandma shared that sitting next to the base General watching me graduate as Honor Man was the proudest moment for him as well. May do a podcast about this story…if I can keep from tearing up while speaking about it.
Looking back on your life, what is one of your proudest moments? Think of that for a minute. What did it take for you to prepare for that?
Were you dedicated, committed, passionate, and consistent in your pursuit of attaining that milestone? How did it feel when you accomplished it?
Do you have a definite purpose now that keeps you up late and wakes you up early, due to you having that same level of passion and commitment?
What could you do that could top that achievement of your past this year?
This is my reminder to you that you do have what it takes to get clear on what you want, and to follow through with passion, purpose, commitment, consistency and persistency to get from where you are to where you want to be in your life in any area (health, relationships, or finances). It’s also a reminder to my self, by the way. 🙂
Obstacles, frustrations, difficulties will surely come, but just like you’ve overcome them in the past, you can do so now and in the future.
Where in your life are you settling? Where are you coasting? How can you step up your level of passion and purpose? Which area of your life needs the most attention right now, your health, relationships, or finances?
You’ve got what it takes to take any of those areas from where they are, to where you want them to be. You wouldn’t be here reading this if you didn’t.
You are the Honor Man or Honor Woman of your life. Now is your time to show the world what you’re capable of! Your best is yet to come.
