Good morning all! A new day has arrived and it is time to get out of bed and make sure it is a good day, may be a day where you understand why you need to embrace the grind. Yesterday I was asking you to dream big and to embrace the grind at the end of the morning post. When we think of a grind, some images that come to mind are the beans before a morning cup of coffee, a car’s manual transmission in search of the right gear or dance moves. Think further and we have assigned a negative connotation to this idea of “the grind” but it does not need to be that way, and those who steer clear of that mindset will put themselves on a path to success. One of the best attributes of this daily pursuit is that it applies to everyone, the grind does not discriminate. It is a mindset that each individual must acknowledge and appreciate in order to experience its benefits fully. There will be many ups and downs, but in the end, there is one common goal, to find, create and cultivate those things that provide purpose in our lives. That last statement infinitely applies to many different areas of life. Go find the girl or guy of your dreams while armed with a genuine smile and healthy outlook on life, participate in activities that truly engage your mind, socialise with people who will help you grow, make time for yourself when necessary, and go to whatever you call work every day with the goal of getting better. The grind is about completing the small, simple tasks and setting large, long term goals all the same. It is about focus and determination to succeed, becoming the best person you possibly can. There is no time limit and if you so choose, there is no ceiling. The resounding themes that apply to this idea of the grind are ones of positivity and perseverance. In a world of over 7 billion people, pessimism will always run rampant. Groups and individuals from all walks of life will try to get you down to their level of negativity and it is entirely up to you whether or not to join them. There will be voices in your head telling you this or that isn’t possible, you aren’t good enough, or you should just give up, do not listen to them, they are just distractions! Obstacles are inevitable and entirely necessary on the path to success. Embrace the challenges that life throws your way every single day and you will grow stronger while learning lessons that can be used for years to come. No one will tell you that it is easy and there will not be anyone there to hold your hand. The grind is an individual pursuit of greatness. Each is unique and tuned to our interests and abilities. Remember, embrace this mindset and let’s create purpose for ourselves in pursuit of the best life. Let’s go out and make this world a better place one day at a time. youtu.be/N7_lW9yEVwg
