It’s An Absurd Thought
It’s crazy to tell a baby to stop trying to walk!
You would never tell a baby to stop trying to walk — especially if it was your baby. You would keep encouraging your baby to walk.
If your baby falls, you will naturally — without thinking — encourage the baby to get back up and try again.
This process would happen until the baby successfully walks with ease and has mastered walking.

What About Us?
So why don’t we do the same for ourselves? Why do many of us choose not to keep going until we reach our goals? Why aren’t we as motivated and encouraged about our dreams and goals as if they were our babies trying to walk?
Dreams and goals are like babies. We must feed them, nourish them, support them, love them, encourage them, and be there for them — consistently. You can’t take a break from watching a baby. A baby must be supervised at all times — whether by a human, a baby monitor, or a camera.
We need to vigilantly watch, stay in-tune, and work on our dreams and goals as if they were babies; this is what will ensure absolute success.
