Trust The Process!

I think that we in some strange way are conditioned to believe that success comes overnight that success is microwavable that success can go into an air fryer and it can come right out in some strange way we are convinced that if in fact the journey is too hard or that the journey takes too long or that the hurdles are too frequent or that the mountain is Too Tall that maybe this means that this is not for us maybe this means means that this isn't supposed to happen for me maybe this means that I'm in the

wrong space when in fact is quite the opposite I think you're actually right on the road you're supposed to be when it's hard when something's easy it sounds like it's not supposed to be yours often times we want the Finish Line without running the race you have something that you're going for and just because it's hard doesn't mean that it's not meant for you it doesn't mean that this isn't supposed to happen it just means that you are in the middle of a process and you have to stay on that process people ask me all

the time Des sh why' you keep going why' you keep going why' you keep going it's because I understood that this is a process and that if it was easy everybody would achieve it the reason why it's easier for me to be able to stay on the road to success whether it is through missusa whether it is through 11 years in the military whether it is through a master's degree whether it is through the seven years it took for me to become a notable speaker whether it is to be an author or a nonprofit CEO

I understand the process and I understand the road and I understand that this isn't meant to be easy therefore it is so much easier for me to climb this mountain because I understand the terrain that I'm about to experience each and every one of you need to understand the road that you're on and the terrain you're going to experience it makes it easier for you to be able to handle it if you walk into something thinking that it's supposed to be easy then you're wondering why it's hard and then that's why you're ready to give

up I have two challenges in this part of perseverance one I challenge you to accept this road for what it truly is and get rid of the fairy tales get rid of whatever is telling you is supposed to be easy and then I challenge you to never let a failure go to waste what do I mean by that every single time I went back to theate competition I learned more and more about myself that by the end of that seven-year period I became a more elevated version of the shaa by the time I got to

the missusa stage I had learned everything that I needed to learn to be able to handle a national title every single year Des got better after about 3 years I realized Des this wig isn't going to work it's not going to work de you got to let it go y'all saw the wig we don't have to spend too much time on it but there was a wig and I kept wearing it but after three years I got it okay the girls know I got I got the the bundles in after a while we got it

together right what I'm saying is that every single time you run into a hurdle every single time you run into a loss every single time you run into a fail I want you to take that lesson home with you and then the next day I want you to show up better
