Morning Motivator - Making an Extra Effort

"Success is almost totally dependent upon drive and persistence. The extra energy required to make another effort or try another approach is the secret of winning."  
-Denis Waitley

Today's quote comes with GREAT pride and happiness for my loving sister in Chicago, Ashley Barker! CONGRATS on the new job!!

Last night, I received an email from my sister with the following within: "I got a NEW JOB! 10 months and 6 interviews later...I am now an employee of Lifetouch, Inc. I am a firm believer that great things come to those who aren't afraid to go the extra mile. As a recruiter and staffing manager (for two more days) I can say first hand-I work with the candidates who follow up regularly (it is hard to forget when they call you 3 times a week...ha ha) and always find a way to add value!"

WOW... impressive! How many other young PROFESSIONALS have learned that in their mid-20's? How many people in GENERAL recognize that your dedication and commitment to a goal is what ENSURES your success? What are you doing to GUARANTEE that your dreams, goals and desires are ACHIEVED this year??

2 DEGREE SUCCESS STEP:
How many clients do you have that you called on for YEARS? How many people are MARRIED to the person that they chased after for months and months? What "things" do you have that you TREASURE the most? The stuff that you worked your tail off for or the stuff that came EASY?

Realize that your PERSISTENCE and DRIVE are what people RESPECT. No one is IMPRESSED by the kid whose daddy gave him an AWESOME car. No one respects the person that FLAUNTS their success when you know it is their family ties that got them there.

People RESPECT hard work and INGENUITY! People are INSPIRED by others that drive to make themselves MORE. Set your GOALS and make them happen... if you are GENUINE, people WILL help you get you there!

Cheers,
Zach
