Motivational Monday


THE ONLY WAY TO COAST IS DOWNHILL.
(Zig Ziglar, 1926 - 2012)

The world lost a great motivator last week when Zig Ziglar passed away. He taught his lessons with humor and faith, optimism and encouragement, and you can bet that he did not "coast." Ever. 

Let's remember that the easy road is not always the best road, that it doesn't always take us to where we need to go. I don't know about you, but I certainly don't want to end up at the bottom of the hill, looking up at all the amazing things I might've accomplished if I had only pushed myself a little harder.

I'm taking a bit of a blogging break. I hope you all have a wonderful week!

  1. When you're coasting, you're actually going backwards and just don't realize it.
    Have a good break!
