DON'T DROP THE BALL

This title is figurative and it connotes different meanings to different people and situations, but ultimately, it advises one to endeavour to live up to a preconceived standard.

There are a couple of instances that this statement is being used.
1. When in a team and everyone is working hard to meet team's goal, making researches, going the extra mile, but it is you that will not turn in a report at the right time, it is you that will be late to...

...team's meeting, it is you that will wander during team's strategy sessions, what you are doing is dampening the morale of the team. You have dropped the ball.

2. When there is a high hope, everyone is in a high spirit ,optimistic and enthusiastic then you walked in and your first statement is so filled with negativity and you just destroy all the excitement and optimism. You have dropped the ball.

You said you are being a realist, who sent you??? Keep your realism to yourself and allow those that are dreaming their own possibility go on.
Pessimism is not a virtue, being a realist is not a virtue either, go-getters are always full of joy and possesses positive mentality.

Coming from another angle on this. The fire many entered 2021 with is already going out and we are only just in the the fifth month of the year.
How come you are already letting go? How come you have started to default on the things you set out to do?

I thought you wanted to be better, I thought you wanted to have a better 2021 which made you take some decisions early on in the year, WHY THEN ARE YOU DROPPING THE BALL?

How dare you stop doing what you started doing for a positive change at the start of the year?
How dare you start to do what you stopped doing at the turn of the year?
We have only just started on the fifth step and you are already backing away?
#Audacious

And you said you want to win. Winning involves you to keep doing that thing till you actually break even.
Some started with a plan to read at least one book in a month but have stopped doing that in just four months... No now, no be so!
#Audacious

Some started applying for scholarships abroad and have burn out already when the testimony have not shown. Some started sending out proposals but have stopped because no leads have been generated yet. Some have sent out bids and contracts but stopped following up #Audacious

Some decided to pray more this year, study more, learn new skills, volunteer, start a business, write a book, write a script, sing a song, start a program, go back to school etc but only in four months, it seems they have thrown away all of that fire they entered the year with.

...They have dropped the ball.
Dropping the ball should not be you, dust up yourself and get back in the line again, you will do it all because you can actually do it.
#Audacious

I encourage you friends, do not go back to the old ways, focus and make the change. Do not lose steam now, the journey to your desired destination is still long, buckle up and #DontDropTheBall
