Hi Steem nation!

Sharing my thoughts for the day. I am creating a session that hopefully can be heard by everyone. "Foot Forward" is my signature motivational niche that very often comes within. I think there's a need to share this here. It is significant and real. So, here it is.

STRIVE became my ideal word ever since I got into creating my own family. STRIVE pushes me beyond my comfort zone. STRIVE ignites that burning desire to walk-on. STRIVE became the key of my ever existence. Let me hear out!

S

- Stands for "Start Small." There's no today if nobody started it long time ago. Meaning, the basic reading you earned from the first teacher (our parents) is an act of process or steps that eventually we adopt into. The web, facebook and even this community steemit are the results of a single idea. It started small then it grew big. Sometimes hesitation confronts us first before doing it or acting upon. If you don't step forward for some reason you might not reach your goal or destination.

T

- This stands for "Think Tall." After "start small", we must create it, picture it, in our mind. We need to have a concrete image/s of what we want to do and of what we want to achieve. What you visualize manifest. When we say "I want or I need" it comes from what we think and it creates various results. You become what you think.

R

- Is for "Reach Out." As we wanted to touch the sky, we raise our hands as if we can reach it. Since birth we are inspired to be fearless. We each have goals we wanted to reach on however, there's a lot of set-backs and experienced a lot of disappointments. You are desperate and ready to give up. Then a great discovery happens that molded you to fight back. The bigger your WHY becomes the REASON you move forward. The reason that you are holding on to such goal, because you knew, you can reach it anytime and on any circumstance.

I

- Invest. Invest in yourself. A guru said that if you read 1 book a day, you are prepared for some reason 5 years ahead of anybody. A 99% preparation and a 1% perspiration. Have you invested in yourself, the inner you? Our body needs food to move but our brain needs acquired knowledge to be stable. Train to have a winning mentality, it is an opportunity to maximize our lives. Success people right now has this kind of investment. They keep on learning. They put time everyday, every night, Saturday or Sunday. Once you invested enough you are now become effective to any and become the highest you.

V

- Goes for Visualize. Visualization is the key of determined goal setting. Planning can be done by anyone but it takes a decisive thinking to picture out that plan. If you want to win, you think a winner. If you want to fail think fear. The mind is the most powerful thing in the universe. When you visualize financial abundance, it will show you how to be in abundance.

E

- The last letter completes the rest of the letter to become a word. Without this letter, we cannot apply the other letters into action. Yes, we are driven by emotions. We each have burning desire to hammer and smash obstacles in life to move forward. This letter makes you get out of bed. This letter makes you do what you hated the most to do. The peak of success and greatness is always on top. Your life goals, daily and yearly goals can be achievable because of this letter. Enthusiasm is the main fuel for everything. The consistency of getting each of your goals must have this urge or feeling. It guarantees the overall rewards.

Conclusion: The more you know where the "why" really matters, it will push you more to target a deadline for your dream and for your goal. Dream without a deadline is just a piece of plan you throw when you see it wrong. Interpretation of each "why" can create diversity within you but the point here is, if you don't believe that you can see your goal materializing, you are not blind physically, you are blinded by somebody. Somebody that could steal your dreams and build there's in front of you. Food taste good when you taste it, not by looking at it. That's the same with your goal, family goal or any kind of goal. Taste it first before saying it's not delicious.
