Too much hype, too much excitement and too many pats on the back for \n‘Start Ups’. Not enough kudos, support and love for those people who \nhave been out there in the ‘Keep Goings’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is really easy to be excited at the beginning, to announce big \nplans, to talk about what you are about to do and get everyone amped \nabout your idea. Unfortunately, as a result people who are committed to \ntheir visions and slowly, steadily and constantly improving and driving \ntowards their goals often get left behind. Doing<\/em> the work often\n leaves less time for the hype-building, hype that brings you the big \npats on the back you can wrangle for a big ‘idea’ that you are about to \n‘start up’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m all for encouraging people at the beginning of their journeys, \nnone of us can kick off without some love and support, but we cannot \ntake those people who have been at their mission for years for granted. \nFor me, those people who have been working away, getting it done, \nslowly, carefully and with attention to excellence, improvement and \nintegrity deserve the biggest pats on the back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those who know how hard it is, know. Those who don’t, let me tell \nyou, it is a dark, lonely, stressful, tough road to go down at times, \nthere is no-one who has gone out on a mission and stuck at it for years \nthat has not been into the darkness that is on the road to your dreams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So big shout-out to the Keep Goings, good on you for not chasing the \neasy thing, the new sexy shiny thing, the latest fad, the compromise, \nthe easy road or the shortcuts. Good on your for sticking it out through\n the tough times, the bad people, the bad weather, the bad moods, the \nstress, the coffees, the late nights, the competition, the uncertainty \nand most importantly the mountains of hard, tough work that goes into \njust keeping things going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep it up. I see you and you inspire me and those who know every day. Stay in the game, it matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Give someone you know who is in the middle of a ‘Keep Going’ a shout-out here and lets get behind them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
