You make an effort and you think that this way you will achieve your vision. What if you fail? What if you don’t get what you want right away? The experience becomes difficult, because humans are creatures who need success.
You should not lower your ideals because of your own weaknesses or imperfections.
Trust me; the greatest achievements are not the result of a single effort. They are the result of several attempts, of perseverance and faith in the end result. Success is not always climbing at the top of the stairs. Success is every step which leads to the top. It is great to feel that every time you go up one step. Every time you dare to see success in front of you. It is not negative if you reach the middle or if you simply stop. It is not negative if you change your course and redefine your aims. Every difficulty is offset by new opportunities.
Success is the continuous effort until you achieve your aim. You define your course, and you are the one who experiences it. You reward yourself every day for the things you achieve. The little voice in you is your strength. It is good that there are other doors in our life. This is self awareness.
Mahatma Ghandi said: “I appreciate even failures and disappointments, as steps to success.”
Since every day you are in conversation with yourself, make this conversation nice and pleasurable to you. Tell yourself simple things but full of meaning. You are great, creative, amazing in wanting to choose progress and development. Choose nice, strong, positive words to show yourself that you are on your side. It may take time, but it is worth the effort and sacrifices. Besides, hard and easy are both parts of life. As traditional Chinese medicine claims, yin and yang are everywhere. What is easy can be dealt with, but what is hard will help you move up a step. You should regard difficulties as opportunities which come to reveal something to you. That something is what will help you progress and develop yourself further. There are times when obstacles will feel insurmountable, when you will have doubts, when you will get depressed. This is natural and expected. Concentrate on your objectives, which may come to fruition a bit later on.
It all really depends on having a positive attitude and intention.
Everything pins around the way you see your whole life.
Imagination and dreams are a decisive part of your life. You get born; you imagine a world made the way you want to see it; you get on your path; you depart from this life satisfied. How awesome would that be?
Think beautiful thoughts, thoughts springing from your inner self. Talk nicely, find new words and add them to your daily life. Give hope and pleasure to yourself first, then everyone will get some too. Change your daily routine to something beautiful, humorous, smart.
Dot your life with as many pauses as you can. Naturally, you are able to do many things quickly, perhaps even at the same time. Yet multitasking brings about fatigue. Fatigue leads to mistakes which block your path. Use words and sentences like “It would be best to look at it another time, because right now I’m pressed for time” or “let me think about it for a while” or “I really need to relax a bit, we may continue this some other time.”
These small but essential breaks may become the salt of life. There is no single solution for everything, but you have the power to give love to yourself, to believe in you. This is the intelligence of the heart.
The emotional alphabet will help you climb on every step of the stairway with certainty and go all the way up to your goals.
