At the end of your life, what you will most regret will be the deeds left undone and the words left unspoken." - Robin Sharma
From a Robin Sharma email:

"Been thinking about great projects. Finishing a degree, closing a sale, running a major event, signing an important deal. In every case the project is hardest just before the end. You're tired and unenthused or a last minute obstacle has emerged or the client has changed their mind. It's tough at the end. Yes, it's important to take the first step, however, anyone can take the first step. It's the individual who takes the thousandth step that is truly remarkable. Enduring greatness comes to those who stay with a project till it's done. And done masterfully.

The Final Push is that last burst of effort that gets you across the finish line. Where you reach deep into yourself and find the resources necessary to get the job done. And here is the big idea: your biggest challenges will draw out your greatest gifts.

Think about the projects in your life. What needs a Final Push? What do you need to finish beautifully in order to fulfil your commitments, deliver outrageous value or leave a legacy? I challenge you to start that Final Push and get to your greatest life.

Here are some tips for finding extra energy at the project's end:
1. Remember why you are doing the project.
2. Visualize a positive future--receiving your degree, satisfying a customer, closing the deal.
3. Take care of yourself. Eat well, drink water and breathe deeply.
4. Take mini-breaks. Go for a walk, listen to your iPod or call a supportive friend.
5. Set and achieve short term goals. Focus on the work you need to now and you will worry less about everything else."
