Stay the Course

When you get in a tough situation and everything goes against you, never give up, that’s is just time that the tide will turn in your favor.

“Those who stay will be champions,” was a saying on the wall in my classroom at Open Door when I taught there.  By not giving up and finishing the race we will be a champion.  When we refuse to throw in the towel, there will come a time when the tide will turn in our favor.  Sadly, many people give up just before the situation breaks and the tide does indeed turn.  No matter what it looks like today in your life, don’t give up.  Stay with it, don’t get that divorce, don’t drop out of school, don’t turn on that friend, or any other situation.  Choose today to not give up, finish the course.  You will be the winner if you stay and finish.
