During the course of pursuing your dream, sooner or later, the going will get a little tough. When this occurs, it’s very tempting to think something like, “This is way too difficult; maybe I should just give up.” What most people don’t appreciate is that any dream worth pursuing is going to have some tough stretches along the way. Furthermore, those tough stretches are where the necessary learning takes place that will ultimately enable you to achieve your dream. So, the next time you’re tempted to give up on your dream because the going is getting a little tough, remember that your success is just on the other side of that tough stretch. As famous American inventor Thomas Edison put it, “Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.”
