Going an Extra mile
An old man sat on a park bench with his faithful dog by his side. The dog, who was obviously in pain whined constantly
Finally curiosity got the better of a passer-by. "Why is your dog whining?" he asked the old man. "Because he's sitting on a nail" came the reply. "Then why doesn't he move?" asked the stranger.
The old man looked up in disbelief: "Isn't it obvious?" he asked, "It doesn't hurt him enough to make him move!"
It would be a rather silly little story if it weren't for the fact that most of us live our lives like that dog - Whining constantly about our jobs and our lives, but never taking any action to change our situation - Because it simply doesn't hurt enough!
You can't just sit there and wait for people to give you that golden dream; you've got to get out there and make it happen for yourself.Get excited and enthusiastic about you own dream. This excitement is like a forest fire - you can smell it, taste it, and see it from a mile away.
So if you have a dream..go an extra mile for it..go and grab it..just do it
