Happy Friday everyone!!
In my younger years, I used to let some form of extrinsic force stop my progress toward a personal or professional goal. Almost every time this extrinsic force was out of my control, and rather than finding an alternative, I just stopped. I would then blame the extrinsic force for taking away my path to progress. I was relinquishing my personal control to those outside forces. Please understand that I am not referring to disregarding rules or authority, but I am referring to focusing on the things within my complete control. You become unstoppable when you work on things other people or outside forces can't take away from you. Things like your mindset, character, and personality. The extrinsic forces will always be present and attempt to block your personal progress. But, by focusing on the things within my control, I can find or create a new avenue to continue my progress. By continuously building my growth mindset, I can improve each and every day. By holding myself accountable to having high character, I can continue my progress without laying blame. By ensuring a positive personality, I can handle any adversity as it hits.
Happy Friday!!
