RANDY PERDUE


               This is a perfect analogy for success in every
               area  of  our  lives.  It’s  all  about  what  you  do
               when no one is watching. It’s about what you
               do to prepare. Do you walk in excellence? Do
               you operate in integrity? Are all of your choices
               bringing you closer to the fulfillment of your
               dream?

               Okay, now let’s go back to the chapter title, “If
               it’s  worth  having,  it’s  hard  to  get.”    This
               statement is both true and untrue at the same
               time. The bottom line is this; any choice you
               make has ‘hard’ attached to it.

               Choice #1: If you choose to live with intention
               and fulfill your destiny, it will be hard. Things
               will come against you. You’ll often have to go
               against the status quo. You may feel lonely at
               times and without encouragement. You’ll need
               self-discipline, commitment, and to constantly
               remind  yourself  that  you  can  do  this.  You’ll
               have to give yourself pep-talks and learn how to
               quickly realign yourself when you start to drift
               off  course.  Are  all  these  things  hard?
               Absolutely!

               Choice #2: If you choose to slack off, settle for
               less  than  you  are  capable  of  or  become
