Strength is...
A nod to those who are working towards their dreams
Strength is taking responsibility.
Being accountable.
And having consideration of others.
-
Strength is not being greedy.
Thinking of other people’s needs.
And understanding the bigger picture.
-
Strength is showing up.
Doing the work.
And knowing it takes more than just you.
-
Strength is to keep going.
When your world is falling apart.
And it feels like it’s not possible.
-
Strength is making hard decisions.
In the hope you get it right.
And learning to live with the consequences.
-
Strength is having hope.
Believing is a strategy.
And finding the energy to go forth.
-
Strength is knowing you don’t have the answer.
Yet having the willingness to search.
And digging deep to find one.
-
Strength is playing the long game.
Knowing you have to find the answers.
And that all the hacks are a distraction.
-
Strength is returning after you are knocked down.
Taking the time to sleep on your challenges.
And showing up with renewed energy and ideas.
-
Strength is going against the grain.
When others laugh or don’t understand.
And beating the odds.
-
Strength is finding what works.
When no one else could.
And ignoring the naysayers.
