If better is possible, good is not enough.
Mark’s Favorite Quote #5
Always have hope
Forever Onward
The steps are steeper
as you get closer to your goal,
so learn to love your expectations
and
pay close attention to yourself
to see how good you can actually be.
My Favorite Quote #4
Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishments.
Always Go Through
As you face obstacles in your life, go through them. Never go around them just because you are afraid. You’re cheating yourself. Going through the obstacles you encounter will help you to garner all the richness that your character has to offer.
Mark’s Musings #33
The difference between a “successful” writer and a “wannabe” writer is the “successful” writer has failed more times than the “wannabe” has ever tried.
Mark’s Favorite Quote #3
If we can do what we do without panicking, we can accomplish great things.
Mark’s Favorite Quote #2
You’ve survived 100% of your worst days.
Pause…Breathe…Reset
Sometime when we are
stressed, depressed, worried or have anxiety,
being alone in our thoughts
can be unhealthy
So take a step back, breath,
clear your mind
and make it a point
to seek out family and friends
Spending time with them
will reset your perspective on life
and will help you gain insight
The wonders of
friendly advice, loving support and good laughs
will do your soul wonders
So relax, for it’s not the end of the world
You will get through it and
come out stronger in the end
with a robust confidence
backed by an eternal well of hope
Happy New Year
As 2020 winds down, my resolution for the new year is to continue to have “HOPE” despite everything that life throws at me. Hope is a powerful motivator, a life-affirming feeling and a force to be reckon with if properly sent out into the world. Darkness cannot exist without light, so keep that spark of hope alive…have faith that everything will turn out all right. Ignite the eternal optimist within you!
Go Straight
When there is darkness
and stagnation
in front of you…
go straight
When life causes
extreme hardships…
go straight
When trouble
overwhelms you…
go straight
When your path
becomes hazy and unclear…
go straight
When obstacles become
too difficult to manage…
go straight
The course you take
must never waver
Always have faith
and never falter
Forge onwards
to greater heights
so that
your dreams and goals
may come to fruition
and then and only then
will everything turn
out better
If you just…
go straight
