Quote on Overcoming Excuses by Roosevelt HBR Patel
Designed by HBR Graphic

There will be many moments in our life when we won’t be able to find a way forward. The reason will be simple when observed from other’s points of view but more complex from our viewpoint.

There exist multiple ways around and above the hurdle that you are currently facing. There is more than one way that can put you in proximity to your goal. The space where you can jump and land on the other side of the hurdle.

But, what happens is that when we fail in our quest for excellence in our life, we think the journey has ended.

Look Around, Look Above, and most importantly Look Within, there exists another way to achieve that excellence that you are after.

In daily life, there will be multiple instances when we face such a scenario where one thing goes wrong and we get stuck over there due to lame excuses.

We know that exercise helps us to reduce the extra weight that we carry around. We decide to reduce that weight by exercising. A few days in and we lose the zeal to wake up early and hit that gym.
