You gotta be willing to take the hits!

Alright alright viewers its another edition of TGIM and I am ecstatic because I'm bringing you a message from everyone's favorite, the Italian Stallion Rocky Balboa! This following clip comes from the last Rocky and it truly sends a moving message. Take a lot and please make the words pertain to you! Watch it a few times and let those chills kickstart your thinking of how you are going to make this the week!

I hope, regardless if you are a Rocky fan or not, that you let this message consume your mind and cause you to truly second guess yourself. Listen to it again and think about the people or reasons you blame for not moving forward everyday (actually re-listen please)! Everyone, including myself, is guilty of pointing fingers everyday and taking the easy way out and blaming everyone or everything rather than themselves. Is it your job? Is it your friends? Is it money? I don't care what you blame it on, there is no excuse because if moving forward is important to you, you will make it a priority everyday! Like Rocky says, the world is mean and nasty and does not care what your excuse is. 

I truly hope this motivates you into taking action in the right direction. Let's make today the day we've always said we would- not next Monday, not tomorrow, but today! Let's go people- nothing can hold you down if you set your mind to it! 

TGIM!!!!!!!! EMBRACE THE DAY AND USE THE CHALLENGES TO BECOME A BETTER PERSON!
