– Quote by: Rick Warren

There are days I think about how far I still have to go to get to where I want to be… but then there are other days I really look at the bigger picture, and say, “wow, I can’t believe I made it this far.” Honestly though, many people forget to look at that bigger picture. Those days we contemplate giving up and choosing a different path for ourselves, are the days we need to remember where we started. Always remember how excited you were when you first realized what you dream was, and how determined you became when you decided that you wanted to pursue it. Did you ever think you would make as far as you are now? I sure didn’t. I spent years saying I wanted to get signed by a dance agency/become a professional dancer, and a year and a half ago, it happened. That day was a HUGE step for me. Even though it may be a baby step for others, it’s still a step further than where I was. There were times my discouragement level was at an all time high, that I began to think it would never happen. But it did. It eases my mind to reflect back on that, because even though I still have a long way to go, I know I will get there someday, and so will you. Everyday is a step closer to what you are working towards.
