- Theodore Roosevelt
Give up on doing nothing....yup I can do that. #5 is I must give up to move forward choosing to do nothing. I have always believed that choosing to do nothing is a choice. I chose it for a long time. I sunk deeper and deeper into despair until I finally hit rock bottom...then the only way I had to go was up. I took this step years ago. I did like the donkey being buried in the well, shake it off and step up. http://weareone-ruth.blogspot.com/2011/02/shake-it-off-and-step-up.html The very essence of moving forward is choosing to move. Sometimes I crept forward one baby step at a time or maybe it looked more like a Cha-Cha with one step forward and two back. Sometimes I was like an infant crawling forward, just put your head down and put one hand in front of the other. I allow myself to rest from time to time but never give up. Winston Churchill stated, "Never, never, never give up." Choosing to do nothing is a lazy man's giving up.
Lying in a lump on the floor when I tried to put away the dishes and collapsed...I lay there for a couple of hours. My son found me still on the floor when he came home from school he told me to go back to bed. I crawled back to bed. I felt like a failure...however, the next day, I got up to try again and again and again. KavinCoach expressed his astonishment at my persistence. I know deep within myself the one thing I can do is "Never, never, never give up."
Never, never, never give up.
