"Excuses, are nothing more, than a reason to fail. An excuse is worse and more terrible than a lie; for an excuse is a lie guarded. A life that is defended by Excuses has become comfortable in defeat, it has settled for mediocrity and is destined for failure. Don't look for excuses to lose."

I must say that I have never looked at excuses in this matter before today. How crazy is that, that an excuse is a lie guarded.

Many people continue to make excuses for this and for that. What I have learned is simply that you can have results or excuses but not both.

In life, there's only one of two options, results or excuses.

Are you going to be the type of person that continues to make results happen for your life or are you going to be the type of person to continues to make excuses happen for your life?

Let me explain the excuses happening for your life...where you sit around complaining about what should have could have would have happened in your life saying that you could have did this and you could have did that but you didn't do this because... that's making excuses for your life. Are you going to be the person that knows that your life happened because you went out there to get results? The type of person where you were about getting results you was about being that type of individual that was headstrong had the willpower that was Ultimate on high to get results? so yeah, you can either have results or you can have excuses you gonna just get up and do it or are you going to make an excuse for why you didn't or why you could have done it? I'd rather be doing it I'd rather be about my results I rather be in control of my life and control of my destiny I rather not excuse it for what I have and by saying that this happened because now I rather know that I did this and this was about cause and effect results or excuses pick one I choose results
