Life Is Full of Pot-holes

I think life is like a road trip ... it has bumps, cracks, and obstacles and you will never know what lies ahead ... you will never know your destination until you get there.
Nobody said life would be easy ... and the road is littered with rose petals ... much so when you are chasing the elusive success that has been evasive, deceptive, and slippery. You will never know if the journey will be pot-holed if there's heavy traffic, or if there is smooth sailing onwards.

The road to success is paved with failures. That's a hard truth, but one that needs to be faced when considering how you are going to make a go of it in life.

But one thing is sure ... just because the trip is long and tedious, is no reason for you to slow down. There is no reason to get discouraged just because there is much work to be done. It is a reason to get started, grow, find new ways, reach within yourself, and discover strength, commitment, determination, and discipline.

The road to success is through commitment and the strength to drive through that commitment when it gets hard. And it is going to get hard, and you're going to want to quit sometimes, but it'll be colored by who you are and more by who you want to be.
