What raised you out of your “Rapid Eye Movement” (REM) sleep, on this particular day? You know, our time asleep when we experience our most vidid and emotional dreams.
Was it the anticipation of getting out the door into a place that is not only quiet, it is just a beautiful place to be. It is silent. It just takes your breath away, when you just admire the moment.
As human beings, not only do we need this time in our lives, it also inspires you to think and to imagine. Where will you journey today in your endeavors to achieve your dreams?
Why do you believe that the latest NASA mission to Mars, has named their Rover “Perseverance”?
“The rover’s mobility system is not the only thing getting a test drive during this period of initial checkouts. On Feb. 26 2021 – Perseverance’s eighth Martian day, or sol, since landing – mission controllers completed a software update, replacing the computer program that helped land Perseverance with one they will rely on to investigate the planet.” —NASA.gov/press-release
What will you do today, to achieve something of real value even despite difficulties, failure or opposition? Will you persevere today to follow your plan and continue your journey, towards that out of reach destination ahead of you?
Yet the real question is, are you capable of going beyond your dreams during REM?
Some people will stop because it is too hard. Others will give up because it takes too long. Many will never realize what our human happiness is really all about.
Yes, it is silent out here today and the air is very cold. The sun is bright against an azure sky. The only noise is the sound of the new fallen snow, beneath our skis. It is almost heaven.
When you are ready to discover real “Perseverance” in your life, consider a P3 Strategy:
> People
> Place(s)
> Program
The longest and most perilous journeys will require People you can really trust and someone you admire for their knowledge and skills that you do not possess yourself.
The Place you decide to operate together may be a workspace, a city, or even another foreign environment, so much different from your own.
The Program you have now embarked on is going to encounter setbacks. It is likely to feel so difficult at times. It will require your own “Perseverance”.
When will you know you have achieved your destination? You will feel it and even see it, the next time you fall into a very deep sleep…
Onward!
