Finish Strong

It's here!!!! 2013 is coming to an end, it may seem like January 1st is a long ways away, but its creeping up. Why is the new year significant? Because you have to finish what you started in 2013!! Some people like to put things off.. For real though, some people say "I'll finish that up next week," or " I'll write the paper tomorrow." Yet these things NEVER get done. I'm telling you that you need to finish 2013 strong and finish what you've started this year, because like its been said, time waits for no man. 

The problem is that you may not have a deadline, and that's what makes you think you don't have to finish that thing you've wanted to do or that paper. The 4th quarter is what separates us though because these are the moments that define who is really willing to work and put in the effort and who is just too passive. You may be going through a lot, whether you have college applications due in two weeks and you still have to write 4 or 5 essays, or if your boss has an assignment you need to finish, or whatever pain and tribulation you are going through YOU CAN GET THROUGH!!! Eric Thomas said that pain is TEMPORARY!! It may last for an hour or a day, or maybe even a year. But eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If you quit however, it will last forever. 

So you're saying to yourself, "what's going to take its place? Why fight through the pain and tribulation??" I'm telling you that at the end of pain is success!! Whether you're tired, or hurt, or whatever is wrong with you, you can push through that and finish 2913 strong. Your sleep can wait because you are strong enough to stay up until midnight and then get up at 3 or 4 in the morning, your illness can get lost because YOU ARE STRONGER THEN YOU KNOW YOURSELF TO BE! So this week, this month, and the rest of 2013 I am challenging you to FINISH STRONG, and remember, if it were easy anyone would do it.
