CHAPTER 15
COMPLETION

It was character that got us out of bed, commitment that moved us into action, and discipline that enabled us to follow through.

Zig Ziglar

Beginning well is a momentary thing; finishing well is a lifelong thing.

Ravi Zacharias

Nothing shapes your life more than the commitments you choose to make.

Rick Warren

The first time I saw you was like a dream come true. No I didn’t give you the gift of life. Life gave me the gift of you.
