One More Time

Cover of "Rocky Balboa" — Cover of Rocky Balboa

There comes a time when you have to stop for a moment and ask yourself if this is the life you want. Doesn’t matter when you do it or how often. For me, it’s been daily as I am not satisfied with where I am. Maybe that feeling will never go away, and you know what , I don’t want it to. It is that feeling that makes me wake to write in the morning, to read a little something, and occasionally exercise. If I don’t make the time to be accountable for my life and where it is going, then I have no one to blame except myself. Do I fail? All the time. But like Rocky Balboa in part 5, I say “one more round” after getting knocked to the ground. I worry about the day I don’t do that. Life will keep punching, and if you don’t respond, you will be lying on the ground in despair. You will be knocked out and living life as if unconscious. So get up! One more round. That’s my motto. There’s no easy way out. There is no shortcut home. Bump up “No Easy Way Out” From Rocky 4 to get yourself pumped, and just keep punching.

Giving up is not an option!
