"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge." - Dr. Martin Luther King
It has been a very challenging summer for me to say the least. The road to recovery after my heart attack hasn't been as easy as I would have liked it to be. In my mind, it isn't fast enough. It is taking too long. And that is what I believe I am having to work through. Patience. I'm a go go go type of guy. I mean my last name is Goings for goodness sakes. Between running my businesses, working on getting better, and the man my family needs me to be, it has been very challenging and at times overwhelming. At times I have wanted to just give up. However I know that is not going to help anything and only make things worsy. So as I challenge myself on this road of recovery, I am having many talks with myself. I am having to remind myself that I just survived a pretty bad heart attack. I have to remind myself that it will take time to get back to where I was, and that I can't get back within days, not even months. It is also equally important to me that I don't give up on myself and that I take this time to grow mentally and spiritually as well as push myself physically. I'm starting a new journey that I am excited to see where it leads me to. One step at a time. One day at a yime. One week at a time. One month at a time. One year at a time. How ever long it takes, I am up for the challenge. Pay attention, I can't wait to show you all what I am truly capable of.
