This man has a quote I can really get behind.
<br><h5><center>_"Run when you can,
walk if you have to,
crawl if you must;
just never give up."_</center></h5><br>

Other people have been quoted saying nearly the same thing and this quote may find itself repeated in this series a time or two.

I will keep this brief as this statement sort of explains itself.

One of the most important things you can possible do for your goals is keep moving.

Take action even if it is small each day.

There are some days when you will feel relentlessly inspired. 

There are others when you will barely feel like getting out of bed. 

No matter how you feel, you can't give up.

You have to keep moving forward no matter what.

That determination to keep moving even when the odds are against you is one of the key factors to consistently winning in life.

That will to take a step each day regardless of circumstance will put you leaps and bounds ahead of those around you.

When you have the energy to run, run.

Get as far ahead that day as you can.

Keep that momentum for as long as you can. 

This way on days you have to crawl, you can still be out front leading the pack.

This can also make it so that your normal pace will begin to be much faster.

This kind of "do or die" attitude will really make all  the difference.

I can tell you, that there are definitely days that I am only crawling.

I am sure to get the main things I've promised myself I must do daily done.

Then barely do anything with the rest of my day.

There are other days when I jump out of bed inspired and running.

Soon I plan to be in good enough shape that I am running far more than walking, and crawling basically never.

So if you have a goal, take that step no matter how small each day and continue your forward momentum.

Remember,
<br><h5><center>_"Run when you can,
walk if you have to,
crawl if you must;
just never give up."_</center></h5><br>
