No easy back down
Let me start by considering the strength of a wold when hunting. Of course we ALL know their very first strength, they hunt in packs. I could remember an animated movie I once watched which illustrated this pack strength. Ok, today I will be citing a very different character that also keeps wolves unique in the world of hunting. A cheetah chases down its prey in a matter of seconds, thanks to its speed. A lion stalks and formulate in matter of minutes to hours before finally giving out the killer chase. All good hunting strategy I must say.
So what's unique about the wolf? I call it 'the know back down strategy'. Do you know how long (in terms of times and miles) wolves chase down their prey. With my little research, this team is known to chase down prey ranging from 5 to 12 miles. They don't need to stalk you, they are not after that few seconds killer chase. Once they make up their mind that you are the Next meal, trouble has banged at your door. The key here is endurance so the prey gets weary and finally gives in. Not a good one actually if you are the prey, hahahaha.
Coming out of that brief explanation, let's get back to us and life. How long can you face a challenge? What's your elastic limit? There are so many things one can unlock in life only if he can apply the best strategy. Let me put in my experience yesterday in the office. I had a workload and its financial target. To be very precise, I wasn't in for credit service yesterday, there was a massive bill to clear off. off

I made my clear work analysis for yesterday and today so I could at least phase off expenses and see what is left for the week. The stress was going to be high anyway. Nevertheless, my eyes were all fixed at the price.
I divided the workload between yesterday and today. Did we work? We got the first phase of the service out and we delivered that yesterday. But there was a comma, our customer decided to put the payment on a waiting list. Disappointing it was for me and my adrenaline to push further dropped. I also knew I will be some bucks down, can the remaining delivery serve the same? I felt like giving up the chase and waiting for a weekend summary. Oh no!! Motivation just pop up in me, Dani! Learn to not give up too easily. This doesn't matter whether I in the end succeed or not, it's a matter of making it a habit.
Have you heard of that old saying, 'shoot for the moon and your worst position will probably be within the stars'. There is no doubt about this, this is something I have to train myself over and over again. If you did go through yesterday's post; 'you can't dodge' you will find some relation to this. Anyone who wishes to go far must be well known to never give up or at least not that easy. You must let nature, spirits and men know that about you.
Learn to atimes to chase like the wolves, weary all manner of frustration. The workload that yesterday was already tiring but I knew at this point my inner encouragement had to prevail. Hands on the deck we went throughout that evening period so that we could meet the next day's target. Currently, I am not too bothered whether I get the payment NOW or within the week, I have learnt another dimension of progress which I am very eager to make it a habit. I know where I can reach with this added feature. Already I have some extra hours today in the process.
It also helps in cutting down business expenses. Unforeseen circumstances can frustrate production. I could remember some time ago when I pushed myself like this just to get an emergent service out. There was still enough time frame to deliver since we are working with machines. So the customer's panic did not panic me.
Nevertheless, one thing to understand is that machines require electricity ( more energy) to function. It is much better to use national electricity currently to do business rather than burning your generator. Fortunately, I decided to phase off that urgent service that same day. The next day would have been a disappointment as we had a general light outage.
To conclude, let me add, aside from the world of business, there is a need to show resistance in all that concerns us. Stay positive and be sure to always be out there to succeed and nothing else. When this becomes your habit, things will begin to give way, already they know your record.
