The Brink of Breakthrough: Celebrating the Sweet Victory of Perseverance

Michael

Have you ever stood on the precipice of surrender, a hard-won victory within your reach yet seeming miles away? It's me, Mike from Dayton, here to share a soul-stirring saga of how embracing the grind can lead to that ultimate sigh of 'ah' – the sound of relief when a bear of a burden blossoms into a boon. Today's episode waxes poetic about the sweet moment where persistence pays off and the exertion exhausts you into ecstasy. I recount my brush with bailing on what could have been a breakthrough and how that close call became a cornerstone of conviction.

Strap in for an odyssey where I peel back the layers of life's trials, revealing them as stepping stones to our true desires, not just stumbling blocks. Let this be your clarion call for anyone teetering on the edge, wondering if the juice is worth the squeeze. No guests are joining us today – just raw, honest talk about the power of not giving up on the cusp of triumph. So, take a load off, lend me your ears, and let's journey through tales of toil turned to triumph, where the hard-won nap is the reward, and Mike Believe is the land where we lay our weary heads in victory.

Speaker 1:

Hello, it's me, the M, the I, the K to the E, hailing from the D, the Y to the T that's the abbreviation for the city called Dayton and I'm sending you good sensations and vibrations. And remember, I'm just saying I want to talk to you today from the subject of ah. Again, that's ah. I didn't say ah, I said ah. The reason I'm coming to you from that subject is that's a sigh of relief. I don't know who I'm talking to, but you have been through something strenuous.

Speaker 1:

There has been a blessing that someone has given you, or a blessing that required you to stretch a little bit further, lift a little bit harder and to break your routine routine. And it got to the point where the potential blessing got to be grievous. And the thing about some blessings is people will turn around and they will make that blessing happen for you. Um, I had received a blessing and I had been doing things, uh, and I was you know what. It is not worth it. I'm just going to say forget it. Or, you know, I may have very well just said let me just space it out. But I decided to attack at that moment and take that blessing. After it was done, said and done and over. I said, ah, what if I wouldn't have taken that blessing? However, I said, ah, what if I wouldn't have taken that blessing? What if I would have just said forget it, because it seemed like it strained me a little bit to get that blessing. It was a blessing, it was an object that needed to be moved into my place, and sometimes you're just like I just don't even feel, like I forget it. But then once you get the blessing, the blessing turns out to be a blessing for you and you're like, wow, I'm glad I did, I'm glad I didn't give up. So I don't know who I'm talking to.

Speaker 1:

But right now you're saying, ah, there was something you were going to give up on. And you said, ah, and there is something that you're in the process of working for, working towards, and it's seeming like it's a problem. But I just want to let you know that that thing that's worth it is going to cause you to look back on the process of receiving it and you're going to say, ah, because opposition and life is going to try to knock you around, bump you around and see how much you want it, try to create this false illusion in your mind that maybe, perhaps it's not for you and you're going to say you know what it's not for me and you're going to stop. But then, if you don't get back at it, you're going to look back and say if I had just continued it would have been good. But when you do decide to pick it back up and go all the way through once again, you're going to say, ah, how could I have not have done that thing?

Speaker 1:

I'm tired, but this is a worthy tired, a worthy nap. You've once again come into the land of Mike believe, a place that makes emerald city look like a pile of green rocks. Never, never land wish. It never was created and wonderland weather was created in the first place. No-transcript.
