It's Time to Run Faster

Yesterday I happened to catch a few minutes of the Ellen show. Her guest was P. Diddy (Sean "Puffy" Combs, Sean John, Puff Daddy or whatever name he goes by today). The conversation centered on Twitter and while P. Diddy attempted to explain to Ellen how Twitter works he mentioned that he often uses the site to motivate others. He said "If you are still chasing your dreams, you better run faster."

That comment struck a chord with me, maybe not necessarily a chord but it did motivate me to continue to chase my dreams and run as fast as I can. It is during times like these that we must RUN faster, work harder and continuously reassess our skills to get us closer to the dreams that we are chasing. One of my favorite authors, Napoleon Hill wrote; don’t wait. The time will never be just right. Mr. Hill also was quoted as saying; a goal is a dream with a deadline.

Don't wait for opportunity to come to you, go after it! Don't say that it is too late to learn something new, it is never too late! Don't say you can't, you can! If you have not written down your goals lately, now is time to start. It is time to start RUNNING FASTER!
