Achieve More, Go the Extra Mile
Today's Affirmation: I push myself beyond my limits to accomplish my goals."Nothing worth gaining was ever gained without effort."~Theodore Roosevelt~
When you go the extra mile you are going above and beyond what is expected of you. You are willing to do more and make a greater effort to achieve your goals and dreams. Do not limit yourself because you refuse to change. You must be willing to roll with the punches and make the necessary changes during difficult times.
People who are uninspired and resistant to change slow down the growth of progress. If you resist the inevitable obstacles that will come your way (as you reach as far as possible to make your dream a reality), then you lessen the chances of accomplishing your goal dramatically. You must be willing to adapt to change, overcome feelings of fear and doubt, and be willing to go the extra distance in order to realize your dream. "Work smarter not harder" does not mean do just enough to get by and that hard work doesn’t pay off. You have to be willing to go the extra mile, and work harder than the average person to achieve your goals before you can ever think about working smarter. Once you hit a level of success (and I’m not talking monetary gain… I’m talking the blood, sweat, and tears of hard work to gain knowledge and experience) then you can enjoy the rewards of working smarter – once you have "the know how". I have learned that in order to achieve maximum results and experience quantum leaps toward my success... everything counts!
Gary Ryan Blair, my personal favorite achievement coach, said this... "There will never be a day that will not require dedication, discipline, good judgment, energy, and the feeling that you can improve. Everything you say, think, and do is an advance or retreat in the pursuit of your goals!" If you want to enjoy the awesome rewards of achievement in your life, then I suggest you go the extra mile to reach your goals successfully! Learn as much as you can about how to improve your chances to succeed. Nothing good comes easy!
The phrase "go the extra mile" comes from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. He said, "Whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain." (Matthew 5:41) Meaning, do more than what is expected of you. Achieving your dream exists on pushing yourself beyond your limits and doing more than what you need to do. Most people will never do more than what it takes to achieve a goal successfully. We live in a world where we expect instant gratification for little or no effort, and it has forever changed how we look at attaining success. In a nut shell, you still get out of life what you put into it. If you want to accomplish your goals and attain your dream, you will have to give more of yourself to get more for yourself.
You cannot complain or procrastinate. You must be willing to work harder than the person next to you, and get the job done by over-delivering what you promise. And that means going the extra mile beyond what is required.Always do more than is expected of you. Give more of yourself... Go the Extra Mile! If you would give your best effort every day to make your dream a reality, I mean a real effort, you would increase your chances to successfully attain what you set out to accomplish dramatically.
Because, when you do more than is expected... you get back tenfold what you put into it, guaranteed.
