So your competitor is kicking up his heels in triumph because of his huge sales. Your neighbor is preening over a new car. Your sister is showing off her new boyfriend. It seems like all around you, people are making a splash, and you’re feeling left out.
Guess what? You don’t need to worry about their successes. Other people’s achievements can’t detract from your own.
Joyful Springers make their own splash. They don’t care if others are doing bigger and better things because they know that their own thing is good enough if they just stick with it.
When you look at others’ accomplishments and envy or resent them, you take energy away from your own endeavors. Your dream is just as important and just as viable as those of the people you see around you. Claim your own spot in the ocean of abundance.
… another wise tidbit from a joyful English Springer Spaniel.

Thomas Edison said, “The three great essentials to achieve anything worthwhile are, first, hard work; second, stick-to-itiveness; third, common sense.”
Joyful Springers develop stick-to-itiveness at an early age. They hang onto their dreams and goals.
If there’s something you want, clamp onto it and don’t let go. If you remain true to your vision, you will achieve success.

Margaret Thatcher said, “People think that at the top there isn’t much room. They tend to think of it as an Everest. My message is that there is tons of room at the top.”
Joyful Springers get on top. They find creative ways to capture the high perch of success.
It’s wide open at the top. You just have to find your open space and claim it.

Motivational author and speaker Jim Rohn said, “Success is steady progress toward one’s personal goals.” Notice he didn’t say success was reaching the goals. Success is just forward movement toward your goals.
Joyful Springers stay steady on toward their goals. They know that as long as they’re still moving toward their desires, they’re deserving of the treats due to the successful.
You may not yet have stacked your achievements as high as you’d like, but as long as you’re still reaching for those heights, call yourself a success.

Sometimes it can seem like getting from where we are to where we want to be is like swimming across an endless sea. We know what we want, but in all the work and effort, we start losing sight of our destination. We can’t see the shore anymore.
It’s so tempting to stop paddling and give up. But triumph waits for us if we can keep going.
Joyful Springers stick to it. They know that enjoying the process will eventually lead them to the shore of success.

We live in an uphill society. We’re all climbing toward our goals, reaching for our dreams.
We’re told we should be upwardly mobile. We climb ladders to success.
But sometimes we need to go downhill. Sometimes, life takes us to a lower rung.
Joyful Springers keep their eager attitude alive even when the journey heads downward. They are alert to new opportunities … they keep their nose to the down.
