To finish first, you must first finish!

The journey towards any goal, mission or destination is fraught with challenges.

?

Nothing worthwhile comes easy.?

?

Therefore most achievers go about their task with zeal, vigour, and spirit.

?

But gravity must have its due,

?

What goes up, stays there only with consistent effort. Slacken your resolve and it starts to dip, and dive down.

?

Sometimes we slack after doing the hard yards.

?

Sometimes we take it easy when the goal seems within reach.

?

And sometimes when the task looks beyond reach, we give up prematurely.

?

?

But, remember, its not over till it is over.

?

Remember, not to loosen the grip, or the hare may lose to the tortoise.

?

Remember, not to give up as sacks of cotton look heavier from a distance, but easy for those who actually handle them.

?

?

To finish first, you must first finish.
