SEVEN YEARS

[Storm.3.1.14]

I bet there are folks here today who are passionately yearning for their first 7 days. Or their first 7 weeks. Or 77 days. And, yes, their own 7 Year Anniversary!

Good! We want you to be passionate about your quit! We want you to be passionate about your milestones! We want you to be as passionate about winning your first month as you are about winning your first year (or 7 years!)

But, have you noticed yet that your passion wants to run faster than your quitmeter? The milestones seem to drag their way to your door, even though your passions are running weeks and miles ahead. So, why does it feel like the early milestones take forevvvvver to arrive?

Easy: Your passion is always waiting for your courage to catch up.

It takes courage -- and astounding doses of patience! -- to live your quit one day at a time. Your passion wants 7 years -- right now! -- but you need to have the courage to get it right -- just for today.

So, how about this compromise: Be passionate about your courage!

Be strong today.

Be stronger tomorrow!

Be passionate about next week.

And about next year!

But...

Cultivate the courage to get there!

One...day...at...a...time!
