Don't Lose the War of the Day

You may lose the battle of the morning, but don’t lose the war of the day.
This is one of my favorite quotes from ultra-athlete, speaker, and author David Goggins. It reminds me that life is full of all sorts of different challenges. We’re going to face unexpected setbacks from time to time, and we’ll occasionally take some losses along the way. But that’s okay, because that’s just how life goes – we’ll win some and we’ll lose some.
The important thing to remember is that you are in full control over how you respond to these setbacks that life throws at us. One setback doesn’t mean your whole day is a loss!
Take a moment to think about how you want to handle yourself the next time your morning doesn’t get off to as great a start as you had hoped for. Are you going to accept defeat and let the rest of the day go to waste? Or are you going to pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and then attack the rest of the day?
One part of your day might not go according to plan, but guess what? You have the rest of the day to make up for that setback!
Until next time…we are Advoco, make every minute count.
