Morning Champions,
A wise man once stated that - "someone has gone before us and set a path for us to follow". Thus suggesting that whatever route we decide to pursue, we have a guiding light and road marking already marked out.
I generally find myself studying and attempting to model characters who have achieved and excelled in my field. I follow their actions, character and endeavours. In saying this, Im sure many of us have seen or come across someone who you might look up to or respect from a career, relationship or spritual perspective. However, have you ever wondered why these particular people are our role-models? Why we look up to them? And why we choose to model or mirror our endeavours on their benchmark?
The answer is rather simply!
Many of them embody a spirit or attitude of excellence! Excellence is not a character developed over night, it is a gradually and consistent effort.
Prepare for excellence.
While we work on developing our excellence, pick a suitable role model, someone who has persevered and excelled in your chosen field. Study them, understand them, what their guiding principles are and so on. Brian Tracy mentioned a while back, success is inevitable, as someone has already made the mistakes, therefore why should you?.
"Role models are your beacon of light in a dark and long pursuit for happiness" (TR Bentley-Woode).
Jason Shahan quoted that "having a role model in life is a great thing to have: one who provides us with direction and inspiration......". These role models have mastered their craft, put in the required input (time, efforts, finance, etc) and decidicated 110%.
Look at the people like Usain Bolt, the world sprint champion and three time gold medalist. He trained, studied and mastered his craft and perfected his work. Imagine a boxer getting into the boxing ring without the neccassary practise and preperation. He wouldnt last long, would he?
Lets find our role model and model ourselves around them for guidance and inspiration.
Have a brilliant day!
