14. People who Cheat to Win, Have Lost

14.  People who cheat to win, have lost, so just keep it moving

It’s sad that so many people feel the need to cheat in order to “win”.  This is so not necessary!  When they do this they cheat themselves out of so much.  They cheat themselves out of the satisfaction of winning honestly and knowing what that actually feels like.  Even losing courageously is more satisfying than winning by cheating.  The beauty in losing courageously is that we can learn from our mistakes, while the cowardly cheater won’t see the need to get better. 

There are some who steal from others, and think they’ve won.  When they steal from anyone, they’re basically stealing from themselves, because they stole trust and their own self-respect.  The person(s) they stole from will never recommend them for anything, because they’re now in the untrustworthy category, so right there they’ve lost.

This is why we cannot worry about cheating people; we just have to keep it moving.   

13. It's Scary As Heck to Jump

13.   It’s scary as heck to jump, but we can’t play it safe and expect the change we want.  We just have to jump and keep it moving.

Even Neo fell the first time.  However, once he began to believe in himself, he didn’t have to think about jumping. He just leapt from one building to another.  Ha, he even learnt to fly (wink, wink).  It is so with us.  We have to believe in ourselves in order to complete the jump.  No one can jump for us.  We have to do it for ourselves.  

Just like the scene in the movie where Trinity leapt from building to building while being chased by agents, those who were witnessing it, said, “Impossible!”  The ones watching you are also thinking or saying, “Impossible!”  However, it’s only impossible to them because they’re afraid to take that leap.

Let your dreams chase you into your destiny.  Jump and keep it moving!

12. Take that Leap of Faith

This is probably one of the most difficult things to do.  It requires "belief" in self and in our dream(s).  It requires strength to stay the course, and not abandon ship during the not so pleasant seasons.

12.   Sometimes, you have to take that leap of faith, without a parachute and just keep it moving.

Now this is some crazy faith. Matrix fans, do you remember Neo’s first jump scene? It’s so very symbolic of our leap of faith.  The journey of Neo in the movie is one of faith.  There was something that he knew he needed, but he needed to be around his "tribe" and be pushed into his destiny by circumstances.  It was fight or die.  It wasn't until he began to believe in himself that he was able to make the jump without even thinking.  It's the same for us.

Take that leap of faith, believe and keep it moving.

11. Learn to Encourage Yourself

Our generation was taught to not pat ourselves on the back, and to not brag, so this is a little hard for us.  

11.  Learn to encourage yourself and keep it moving.  This is important, especially if you’re an entrepreneur.

When no one’s around, we have to encourage ourselves.  We have to be our own cheerleader.  We have to clap for ourselves, and pat ourselves on the back at times. Everyone has their life to live and is busy doing the best they can, so they’re not always going to be there.  Also, not everyone understands the dream, and are able to capture the vision in order to help us.  It’s ok!  

Be your own encourager, and keep it moving.

10. Not Everyone is Going to Like You

10.  Not everyone is going to like you, it’s ok, just keep it moving.

This is fact. No explanation necessary!  

Remember to like, love and have fun with you, and keep it moving...

9. We All Have Chief Encouragers

9.  The friends who encourage you to start your business or write your book, aren’t necessarily going to spend with you, don’t take it personally.  Their assignment may simply be “encourager” in chief in that season, so keep it moving.

Ok, yeah, this! We all have chief encouragers in our life; that is their assignment.  They are to help jumpstart us into that next level of life, so don’t be mad because they didn’t make any purchases, or show any more support to your business or your new adventure.  Their assignment is complete in that season.  

Thank them for their encouragement and keep it moving.

8. Cry If You Have To

Life can be challenging and hurtful with many twists and turns, highs and lows.  It's Ok!!!  Stay the course.  

8.  Hey, cry if you have to, it’s cleansing for the soul, just remember to keep it moving.  

Crying is good for the soul.  Cry and get the sadness or depressed feelings out of your system.  Sometimes, all we need is a good cry, and then the sadness evaporates. Have you ever experienced that?  You cried, and cried and then when you were done, and you’ve gotten it out of your system, you feel so much better, that you wondered why you were sad in the first place?  All of it is ok.  It’s not a weakness.  It’s cleansing that works wonders.

Have a good cry and keep it moving.
