Word of the Day: “A trophy carries dust. Memories last forever.” — Mary Lou Retton
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” — Jeremiah 29:11
It doesn’t matter how many awards or accolades you have accumulated throughout your lifetime. It is the memories you share with your loved ones, friends, colleagues, and fans who supported your journey. The experience of winning titles and basking in the glory is all part of life.
Although some people think that ‘winning solves everything, you still have to put in that effort to become someone of distinction. You have to be that person who is not afraid of the moment and when a title is on the line, you better make sure to take advantage of it.
Why you may ask?
There is always someone ready to steal your moment and use that to make themselves better.
Takeaways
I say to you today, don’t stop now.
If you are aspiring to be a writer, athlete, or whatever occupation you choose, let it be a tool to change lives. Take advantage of your platform and don’t chase for titles or awards. Chase for continued growth and build character. It is the character that defines a person’s life, whether good or bad.
Trophies and awards are sent to those who work hard and continue working on their craft.
Don’t be the chaser.
Be the chaser of you.
