One of the dangers of experiencing success in life is the subsequent threat of becoming so fixed on our past victories, that we fail to realize we have much more things to accomplish or achieve. There is an inclination for us to become comfortable with our past results; And, this type of behavior should not be tolerated of ourselves, nor of those around us! We must challenge ourselves and others to continually grow and progress as long as we live. Just think of an Olympic hurdler: How foolish it would be for the hurdler to "look back & admire" how they gracefully surmounted the last hurdle? The problem is this: THAT'S NOT THE LAST HURDLE! The hurdler has to remain focused and ready to leap the next obstacle on the course successfully, and we must do likewise. Remember: Don't let your past success.....be your last success. "CROWN LIFE!"
