WHAT ROADBLOCKS ARE STOPPING YOU NOW?

WHAT ROADBLOCKS ARE STOPPING YOU NOW?

Imagine the dream you want to achieve has never been done before in the history of mankind, and on top of that, what you want to create is decreed by law to be illegal.

In today’s world, very few of us have dreams and goals that would even come close to fitting into never being done before, or illegal to do. That was not the case for Karl Benz, founder of Mercedes Benz. It was against the law to drive a car in Germany. No one knew how to drive a car, and there were no roads and no fuel stations. He had to get a letter from the King, giving him permission to use his new device. With all of these roadblocks, Karl had a valid reason to give up on the goal or wait for the right time or for the law to be changed.

I don’t know your exact circumstances so a blanket statement would not be appropriate, however, from my experience the roadblock stopping you from achieving your goal is normally YOU. It is your belief and your confidence that stops you. It is having enough courage to try, knowing you could fail—but also knowing if you succeed the rewards are greater.

What is stopping you achieving your most desired goal and in the process becoming the best version of YOU?

THE BEST OR NOTHING—IN THE PAST, PRESENT OR FUTURE.

Karl Benz, 1844 – 1929
