The minute I saw the video clip below I knew I just had to share it with my readers! What a passion-driven message!

How many times have we faced difficult situations in our lives? This young child provides us with a message of hope and the power of being persistent and full of determination! He conquered a dream of learning to ride a bike and he feels happy “of himself!”

I know I will carry this young boy’s message with me the next time I face a hurdle on the path of my dreams!

Recently, so many in our Tri-State Community (Iowa, Nebraska, and South Dakota) have been experiencing situations that have tested their patience and their strength. The rising Missouri River has created trying situations. Yet, the outreached hands of so many supporter has created opportunities to believe not only in themselves, but in mankind! Under extreme pressure, we find a way to reach within ourselves.

Whether we are working to reach personal goals, professional goals or goals that will affect a community at large – the message of believing in ourselves is the first and most important step of the process!

THUMBS UP to all who have helped in the Siouxland Flooding situation. The countless hours of packing the contents of homes, sandbagging, and keeping our community safe has not gone unnoticed! We are stronger than ever before because we BELIEVE in OURSELVES!

Keep your dreams alive. Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication. Remember all things are possible for those who believe.”
