Sheer will

Sheer will amazes me. The drive that overtakes us. That little something that will not let anything come in the way of accomplishing a goal. You read and hear about people whose will has helped them to overcome enormous odds. I admire people who can do that.

I’ve led a pretty cushy life, truth be told. But, pursuing this lifetime dream of producing and recording a cd of my original music has truly put my will to the test.

Every once in a while I find myself wavering. Some days the task seems overwhelming. It tempts one to throw in the towel and say; oh that’s good enough. I’ve had many of those moments. Most brought on by the cost of this project . But it’s those times I MUST steel myself to envision the final product and the realization of the dream.

I’m edging ever closer to the goal, and today I’m feeling I can conquer the world. All I need do is remember this reservoir of inner strength for a weaker time.

Here’s to hoping you know your goals and never give in to apathy. I know I won’t!

Go for it! I have faith in you.

And when you're done, you can advise me because that's a goal of mine as well. :-)

Hello Michael...Great wisdom and advice you give above. It's nothing short of a small miracle these days to complete or achieve one's goals, what with all the distractions about us. They paint such a lovely picture, when in all actuallity it sucks the life and vision out of us. If we will simply hold fast to that which is true...and pure as you see yourself doing, great and wonderous things will come of it!
You look and Your name sounds familiar to me. I lived in Pueblo during some of my teen years. I don't know what it is...You just struck a chord with me...perhaps we'll discover what it is.
Looking forward to knowing You...and thank You so much for the sweet compliments!

Blessings,
Tesa
