“Desire is the key to motivation, but it’s the determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal – a commitment to excellence – that will enable you to attain the success you seek.”
~Mario Andretti
Success begins with the desire to achieve a worthy goal or outcome, and I don’t know of a worthy goal that lacks significant obstacles requiring determination and persistence to overcome them. So if you find yourself languishing in mediocrity, check first if you have the desire to achieve something great in the work or the environment you are in. Without that desire, you’ll lack the motivation necessary to push through the inevitable challenges and achieve your worthy goal.
