Wise Word Wednesday: Cavett Robert

"Character is the ability to carry out a good resolution long after the excitement of the moment has passed." -- Cavett Robert

     I recently read this quote by Mr Robert (the man who founded the National Speaker's Association) on Success Magazine's facebook page.  I think the main reason this spoke to me was because we're now mid-way through January.  New Year's resolutions aren't at the forefront of our mind any longer, but they are still kind of fresh.  The joy that comes with anticipating a fresh start, or making a positive change, is one that may have diminished, but it doesn't have to fizzle out.  So while this last week may have been a bust, it doesn't mean you've blown it.  It just means you have a new opportunity to get up and start again.  Have character.  Keep going.  

     I've got some specific things in mind as I write this.  Some more significant than others, but all that have meaning for me in some way, big or small.  What about you?
