Character

Today’s Lyrical focus

• Nothing’s going to get in my way… Everyday
• I know no fear still standing tall
• You better stand tall when their calling you out

 Dwight Eisenhower describes Jon’s character with this quote, “The qualities of a great man are "vision, integrity, courage, understanding, the power of articulation, and profundity of character." In other words Jon has character.

Jon works really hard at not allowing adversity to compromise his character. In fact adversity made him fight even harder. Jon is pretty much known as the comeback kid in rock music (Laura Jackson). Jon had many obstacles that he had to overcome in order to be successful. If it wasn’t for his ambitious and drive I don’t think Bon Jovi would have made it after “Runaway.” 

I really believe in this saying, “When the going gets tough the tough get going.” We can’t quit every time something doesn’t go are way. When the world says, "Give up,” Hope whispers, "Try it one more time."(Author Unknown)

Jon is ambitious and envisions himself succeeding at whatever he sets his mind and heart to. He works hard and wants to keep moving up. Like he sings in “Everyday”… I’m going to touch the sky and teach the wind to fly (Have a nice day).

We to need to keep looking for ways to improve our life’s so we can benefit somebody else. Let’s make our presents known today. Let people hear your voice when you shout it out loud. How would you describe your character? How would the people who know you best describe you? Ask them.
