The Pathway of Excellence Inspiration is what awakens you….
There has to be some one thought or person or event that pushes you out of your “slumber” and establishes a desire to move beyond the reality you now experience.
Motivation is what moves you….
Plenty of people have the thought and desire to be something more than they are today, but there also has to be some trigger that gets you off of ground zero and gets you “in the game”. Only you can ever identify those “Ignition Points.”
Perspiration is what defines you….
You may dream of a better day and you may even take action to claim that better way, but the degree to which you commit and dedicate yourself to that vision is what makes the difference between succeeding and failing.
Recognition is what rewards you….
We certainly should be intrinsically driven, but acknowledgement from those external outposts are the defining checkpoints that remind us we are the right course.
Humility is what maintains you….
Accomplishment is never a constant once you have found it. It takes a steady psyche to realize that just as hard as it was to achieve, it can just as easily be lost if we do not remember where we have come from and respect those we met along the way.
A "Champion" is how they will remember you....
Not necessarily in trophies and medals, but a champion who took charge of their vision, and overcame a myriad of obstacles to obtain a better way…a better opportunity…a better life.
