JUST PUT ONE FOOT IN FRONT OF THE OTHER

I remember it like it was yesterday.  The culminating event of Marine Corps Boot Camp Training.

Months of constant training and the last 50 hours running on little to no sleep matched with little no food.

All you had to do was finish this last hump called the Grim Reaper and you would be crowned a United States Marine.



There was just one problem, they don't call this the Grim Reaper because anybody can just skip their way up it.  Nope, if you want it you gotta go take it and the only way to get there is taking one step at a time.

I remember being completely exhausted covered in sweat and just looking down at my feet making sure that my left foot went in front of my right foot and vice versa.

That is the same formula that you have to take to reach your goals.  Quit looking up at that hill, it's freakin intimidating and causes you to lose hope and progress.

What you have to do, is do what I did on that hill on that warm August morning on the Grim Reaper.....

FOCUS ON PUTTING ONE STEP IN FRONT OF THE OTHER

I know you have a goal that you have been focusing on that you haven't obtained the progress that you want.Quit dwelling on the size of the hill and tell me what you are going to do next to get closer to it.

Today is the day to get back into the game and start attacking your own Grim Reaper.

FOCUS ON THE NEXT STEP.   Gotta run.
