There is always something to be grateful for. This week I am focused on the fact that I am grateful to have found my passion in life. I know I have a lot to learn about writing, and a lot to learn about creating meaningful content, but I am grateful for every day, I get to write, to explore a story or an interesting subject through words.
I am also grateful to have witnessed the power of persistence. I have seen people I know, finish their books, worked through the difficult parts of creating a story and emerged at the other end victoriously. Thanks to them, I am inspired to do the same, and repeating the process, until I reach the desired success.
Passion and persistence are the key ingredients to making it in any field. It is what makes my husband go work with passion on our business, overcoming all of the obstacles that come with being your own boss. It is what carries you through sleepless nights, and long hours – knowing that you are doing what you love. I hope you take the time to explore what your passion is and that you find the strength within yourself to be persistent, to see it through.

Life is nothing without passion. So glad you’ve found yours.
agreed, thank you for stopping by!
I love that quote – and t’s so true. You may call it “persistence,” but for my own journey I’d say it pure mule-headed stubbornness. If I run into barriers in my path, my mind won’t stop thinking about it until I puzzle out a way to get around the barrier. There are lots of failures, but I usually end up figuring it out and “win” in the end! lol Yay for finding your passion and persistence! It’s wonderful you’ll work with your husband too. That’ll make your relationship stronger. Have a great weekend!
In order to succeed a certain amount of bull headed stubborness is necessary, thank you, Lexa – you have a great weekend as well, hon
I wouldn’t write nearly as much if I had no passion. Great post.
What a wonderful quote. That which is hard is most appreciated. Congrats on finding what you are passionate about and the determination to do it! I am still working to not “give up”

Great quote! I have to share that with my daughter – we were just saying that we are full of great ideas, now we just need to stick with one. Stick with it!
