PERSISTENCE
magine two people are given a location to pick up a substantial gift for themselves; “go in and get your gift�. One person is applying persistence and the other person applies perseverance. Which one do you think gets the gift first?
They both go to the door and knock. The person who is persistent is going to knock on the door and knock on the door. Same person may leave and come back and knock on the door again. They are persistent! But they continue to do the same thing over and over again persistently knocking on the door seeking to get the gift. No matter how committed they are to their persistence they will not necessarily get the substantial gift. The other person who is applying perseverance will do the same thing, they will knock on the door and wait for a response. However if no answer, this person is going to check the doorknob to see if the door is open, look in the window to see if anyone is inside, go around the back to see if anyone is outside, and then pick the lock and get the substantial gift.

The VIVYD Dream Dream is free, hustle sold separately. Ever had a dream that you thought was so big that it almost seemed impossible to accomplish. It is kind of like when you can see the potential of the end-product, but it is hard to know where to start. When I see VIVYD, this is exactly what I see. I can see all the things that are possible, I just have to figure out how to get there. Sure, starting a magazine is an accomplishment, but becoming more than what is on the surface is truly the greatest task. Many motivational speakers say, “Starting is the first real step to any success. As many people dream but are too afraid that they might fail and never achieve anything.” I would say that I am no exception to that fear. I contemplate daily on the “what if ’s” and ending in complete disaster is always on my mind. But my desire for success seems to always override my fear. So, to all those looking for a sign, or some magic moment to know when is time to chase your possibilities. I say that today is the day! Do not put off any longer the thing that you know WILL bring you the greatest joy. You can never go wrong with betting on YOU!

The Burden of Being Yourself
Witten by Ron Adams
am wondering can you relate? Do you sometimes hate your personality? Now before anyone goes too far, I am not talking about disliking your real self, the person that you really are. The person that only you know and maybe one other person. I am talking about the you, that everyone receives as their perspective of you. Let me break it down.
