What's Your Purpose?
If your “why” is not strong enough, you will never find a way when you hit obstacles along the way.
With 110 miles of shark infested waters, deadly jellyfish, eddies, whirlpools, and other potentially deadly situations, why would anyone want to swim from Cuba to Florida? Having already come close to dying trying to do it before, what could be the purpose of it all?
Swimming 52 hours 54 mins is a feat by itself for most people on this planet, let alone doing it in those kinds of waters. So what would drive Diana Nyad to do the impossible – to do what no one has achieved before?
Surely, it isn't just for more recognition and success.
Watch the video below to hear Diana's story, but before you do, keep on reading.
Will You Find A Way Despite It All?
The spirit of perseverance and a committed mindset, are without doubt the most important criteria to achieve the big things you want in life.
Your life and mine, will be riddled with challenges, heartache, crisis and pain of every form.
But, if you have a goal or a lifelong dream you really believe in, there's an important question that you need to answer.
The question is, what must you do and what will you do to get what you want? Will you find a way? Will you persevere until you find the keys to success and breakthrough?
Given how far the human race has advanced, it can be said that hardly anything is impossible.
Age and gender are no barriers when it comes to you achieving what you want. I'm sure you already realize that by now. The only question is, what lengths will you go through to achieve what you want? What effort will you put in? How quickly will you give up, or won't you? Will you get out of the race as soon as one things falls out of place or will you stay in it?
To “be” is to do.
