It sucks, right?!…
… That feeling of getting stuck on the path to greatness.
You just want to keep moving on forward but you feel you’ve lost too much steam to continue your journey to your own promise land.
Well, I’ve got good news for you…
You’re not the only person trying to turn a dream into reality.
And yes, the emotions you’re currently feeling have been felt by other people who went on the same journey like yours in the past.
What you can do now
When those feelings of hopelessness come to you, don’t fight them. Just let them flow through your mind. And as the negative voices start to speak in your head, position yourself into a calm state, shut your mouth tight and talk to them with your inner voice.
Talk to those self-limiting inner voices
Tell them that you’re in charge of your thoughts – not them.
Tell them that it’s okay to fail. Tell them that it’s okay to learn from your past mistakes.
Tell them that each challenge you face on your path is determined to make you a better person.
Keep in mind…
Know that all your experiences in life are designed to make you grow in character, discipline, skill and wisdom.
I encourage you today…
Do NOT be afraid of failure.
Don’t think of failure before you hit the action button.
Learn to use fear to your advantage – coz all successful people do so.
All successful people once failed in one or all of their ventures. I too had my own failures. But the sweetest part of a life journey is in counting the blessings that happen in each victory.
Recognize and Celebrate Your Past, Present and Future Victory Points
Each story behind your victory is important.
It is the story that reminds you that even though you failed, you still returned to win – and you did win.
- You disappointed the critics, the nay-sayers and the cowards.
- You were courageous.
- You put out fires.
- You destroyed myths.
- You controlled your ego and came back victorious.
Remind yourself that every victory that you’ll experience will be among your testimonies for life.
You can do it…
I say you can make it. If I say you can, what are you saying to yourself?
Feel the pain. It’s what makes you human.
Rise again. It’s what makes you a courageous super human.
