Never Never Never Give Up

I read a short story while browsing through the internet today and i was able to immediately relate that to my current situation. I thought of sharing the same with you before i tell you how this related to my current situation.

"One day a young lady was driving along with her father. They came upon a storm, and the young lady asked her father, What should I do?"
He said "keep driving". Cars began to pull over to the side, the storm was getting worse. "What should I do?" The young lady asked "Keep driving," her father replied.

On up a few feet, she noticed that eighteen wheelers were also pulling over. She told her dad, "I must pull over, I can barely see ahead. It is terrible, and everyone is pulling over!" . Her father told her, "Don't give up, just keep driving!" Now the storm was terrible, but she never stopped driving, and soon she could see a little more clearly.

After a couple of miles she was again on a dry land, and the sun came out. Her father said, "Now you can pull over and get out." She said "But why now?"
He said "When you get out, look back at all the people that gave up and are still in the storm, because you never gave up your storm is now over. "

Just because everyone else, even the strongest, gives up, you don't have to...If you keep going, soon your storm will be over and the sun will shine upon your face again.

Never ever give up.

"Impossible is nothing" said Muhammad Ali.

"Easier said than done" - some of you may remark. Yes it is not easy, but who wants to do easy things. Easy things do not lead you to achieve extraordinary results in life.

When i started my blog, within 2-3 weeks, i started touching almost 300 hits per day. I was excited and overjoyed and of course, highly motivated. Then started the time when God wanted to test me and my dreams...how powerful they are...and how strong they are. Suddenly the hit count started declining and went down to 50 users per day (less than 20% within 1 week). I don't know why. But i had to continue to write at least one post a day. Because if i stop writing that one post every day, that would mean i have given up. I knew that i have the knowledge, i knew the way to financial freedom and i knew that people will come and follow me. 

Since last 2 weeks, i am continuing to write one post a day though my page hit count touched its nadir at less than 40 hits a day. Today morning, i was informed by one of the major sites from where i was getting the max hit count (more than 50% of my hits were from that one site) that they have blacklisted my blog. When i inquired as to why, they mentioned that i am posting too frequently and only sharing my blog link, which is not as per the T&C of their policy. 

So, here i am  at 5AM in the morning, writing my post for the day after being down to 20 hits a day and blacklisted by one of the biggest hit providing sites. Do you think it is easy to continue to have the will and passion to write these post in spite of what has been happening over the last 2 weeks..absolutely not. 

But i know today that one day, this will be a big hit..one of the biggest hits because i know the way to financial freedom, i know everyone wants to achieve this and i know that i can guide people to cross this journey.

Muhammad Ali said once : I am the greatest, I said that even before I knew I was.

This blog and this book (From Rat Race to Financial Freedom) will be a big hit and i am saying that much before it has actually happened. I am saying that when this blog is at its nadir.. but there is only way forward now..to rise  !!

I will never give up !!So, should none of you. If you have dreams in life and a passion to achieve extraordinary things, God will test you...but Never never never give up..the success is just round the corner.

Cheers !!
