How do you Fair in the 9th Inning, Down by 3 Runs?
There are some people in this world who no matter what the circumstances will be able to pull off a home run hit in the ninth inning when their team is down by 3. Usually the team always depends on them to win the game and with ease they always seem to come through. There are others who under the same pressure would drop the bat before they even stepped foot on the plate. What is it about the first kind of people that make them so adept and frugally winsome at just the right times in life?
The true answer is that those who don't have enough fight left in them to stay in the fight, didn't have a good enough reason to be in the fight in the first place. Did you catch that? In other words, their why wasn't big enough.
Those people who seem to get better when things go wrong, who stand up tall and enter the fight have the stamina and drive to continue forging ahead to meet their goals because their reasons for doing so are more compelling to them. They know how to stick to a commitment and aren't afraid of a bump in the road. They keep their eye on the prize the whole time.
Start to Empower Your Reason
The why's or in other words the reasons you want to achieve things is the biggest and most compelling reason you will have to strive towards your goals. If you are starting a business venture that takes a lot of time and energy then in order to keep at it you have to create reasons that resonate with your deepest desires otherwise your commitment, tenacity and determination will easily stall out mid stream.
Let's say you've become dissatisfied with the way your life is going. You are not happy with the status quo. You've determined that you'd like to have enough money to gain a few more material possessions and to have more leisure time.
While material possessions are of great importance they cant be the only element that fuels your "why." Once you get all the things you want, your purpose will be gone and with it, your drive and determination. Think outside of the box and make reasons that are compelling on your various levels of existence so you will never run out of reasons to keep your nose to the grindstone. Set high goals that are inclusive of not just vacations, but the reasons "why" you want those vacations as well.
There is a phenomenon that exists among people who retire young. Studies indicate that many people who retire at age 55 double their risk of an early death than those who work well into their 60's. The main reason for this is that with the early retirement and no compelling reasons to live they lose their purpose in life.
