Friday 5!
1. Inspiration
"Persistence is the ability to maintain actions regardless of your feelings. You press on even when you feel like quitting. When you work on any big goal, your motivation will wax and wane like the waves hitting the shore. Sometimes you'll feel motivated, sometimes you won't. But it's not motivation that creates results - it's your actions..." Zig Ziglar
