Passion to Push
by: Nicole L. Ellis
Have you ever wanted something so bad you could almost taste it?
Although the meal you desired was not present in the natural
Your mind interacted with your senses and you could almost embrace it
The sweet aroma somehow met your nostrils
The delectable dish danced on your taste buds
And you would do almost anything to devour the meal that only met your mind
That drive, that insatiable appetite to possess what only began as a thought is Passion
Do you have passion to push
Push past the excuses and lies
Passion to push past the discouragement and defeat
Are you willing to pay the cost to be the boss
Or forfeit your dream and experience a loss
A loss of hope, happiness and a future
Or are you willing to dig deep and bandage your wounds with a suture
Do you have passion to push
Push past the embarrassment of temporary defeat
Passion to push past the desire to compete
Will you abort the vision and bury it underground
Or will you clip its wings so it can no longer be bound
Everyone dreams, but only a few push from imaginary thought to manifestation
The road to success is a journey and not merely a destination
The possibilities are endless for meaningful success
However, you have to decide that you won’t settle for less
Be willing to see the dream before it becomes reality
Work hard so your goals don’t become a fatality
Embrace the fact that the process never ends
Possess the passion to push and you are destined to win!
“The dream is free, but the journey isn’t.”
~John Maxwell
