The Two D Combination



The Two D Combination

Everyone has dreams. If you talk to a small child he or she will tell you in no uncertain terms about how they plan to be a fireman, or an astronaut – or, dare I say – a ballet dancer. They have big dreams. Dreams are motivational.

But to make these dreams a reality takes more than dreaming, as we all know. It takes another “D”: dedication. Combine the two Ds and you have a powerful mix.

The definition of the word dedication is: “the quality of being committed to a task or purpose”. Commitment means doing things when you’d rather do something else, or when you’re tired, or when you’re bored, and so on and so on. Commitment then, is the glue that holds the two Ds together.

On those days when you feel less than motivated, remember the two Ds.

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Motivational Secret #131:
“Combine the two Ds.”
