Life Is A 12 Round Title Fight

Down for the count.. 1,2,3,4,5... (get up!)

No matter how battered and bruised we appear to be or our ego for that matter, we must not go down without a fight. Believe it or not, when we are long gone from this earth, life will still go on, and if we departed without making our imprint, the blame falls squarely on our shoulders.

The first round commences every morning that we wake up. All of the other rounds are intertwined with the various obstacles we are scheduled to encounter in the day, whether it be stuck in traffic, late for an appointment, flight cancellation or long day, news of your home getting foreclosed, getting news that you didn't get the job or not having your phone ring for opportunities (for weeks). How we handle these things determine whether or not we become champions of the day.

I do realize that times have changed and it becomes a little tougher for you to smile or wake up optimistic. I get it, because I go through my own battles each and every day. However, it is that glimmer of hope we all must exercise, using our very own imagination to dream and paint pictures in the sky of where we see ourselves, no matter how extravagant or bold those brush strokes may be.

There is always something to salvage in life and there is ample time to right our wrongs and trump our failures with success ten-fold. The beauty of life is that we can re-write our history at any given time and you know what eases the mind even more? It's the fact that nothing in life is final.. only death is and we all will perish. It's what we do when we are here, our positive approach and outlook on life and the actions we take to make each moment we are here a masterpiece.

Be a champion everyday.


Sincerely,
-SM
