Category: the year in haiku

Rise to the challenge,
An obstacle at every turn
Is a lesson learnt

Start with this question
When uncertainty ensnares:
“What is my purpose?”

Stop second guessing
Watch as the future unfolds
All will become clear

When energy flags 
Don’t let motivation wane;
Push for the finish

Learn from your mistakes,
Don’t make the same error twice.
Your time is precious

Don’t be disheartened
By unplanned difficulties;
Practice persistence

Act in the moment;
Don’t let a good idea pass
In case you forget

Savour the moment;
An unexpected pleasure 
Tastes all the sweeter.

Seek progress elsewhere
When interruptions arise;
Don’t waste a moment.

A new beginning;
Bring from the old what serves you
And outgrow the rest

Do not be put off
By the size of the challenge.
Expand your limits.

Good can be better,
Standing still gets you nowhere;
Practice makes perfect.

When life furnishes 
An unexpected ally;
See it as a gift.

Each new skill acquired
Will help you meet a challenge
Further down the road

How far can you go?
If you never take a chance
You’ll never find out
