NO, DO NOT REST ON YOUR LAURELS!

-
Naturally, humans find it easy to relax after the successful accomplishment of tax. It's just an inner sense of arrival, which can prevent one from making greater marks in life. There's always something you can do to advance your life even after you've made an incredible feat. You are not 'there' until you are 'there'! Even the great strive daily to get better, how much more you? Never rest on your laurels. One Big Win deserves another! After an extraordinary achievement, move on to do more! Resting after making a Big stride is one way to lose touch with progress in life. Contend each day to beat yourself into improvement. Your greatest competition is you. Yes, you! Live today, engaging in activities that will bring forth a better you. Strive to be better than who you were yesterday! Do Not relent! Until you have crossed the finish line, the race continues! © Folake Oladipo Youth Development Expert | Minstrel | Writer | Speaker | Fashionpreneur
