There are many compelling and valid reasons why people keep moving forward even though live keeps throwing curve balls and problems their way that have stopped lesser men dead on their tracks before because they lacked the physical strength, mental fortitude, emotional stability and firm resolve to fight through the difficulties that they face. There are those who go over and beyond the call of duty in the workplace so that they can earn the respect of their colleagues, impress the top brass and prove themselves worthy of another promotion complete with better benefits, cash incentives, monetary commissions and significant salary raise. There are also those who find satisfaction and sheer delight when they go on shopping sprees during flash sales every payday because all the dazzling jewellery, expensive designer clothes and fancy gadgets or thingamajigs that they buy serve as proof that they have finally conquered their proverbial mountains as the undisputed kings of the hill.
