Life has a way of springing up surprises when
you least expect it. So, don’t be totally “surprised” when unplanned
circumstances happen. Sometimes, the lessons from those experiences makes us
stronger, better exposed and able to handle bigger challenges.
If you are determined to hush your detractors,
discomforts and unfavorable situations to still handle your responsibilities well
and meet your goals, you will wake up one day and be glad you did. You may in retrospect
understand that some important aspect of your life was built in the course of dealing
with those challenges. Therefore, have a positive outlook always, look out of
for the good in the no-so-good situation. You should encourage yourself by imagining
what your success story will sound like if you manage to pull through your
struggles or challenges. You may also search the internet for other people’s success stories,
this will keep your mind engaged and hopeful. It also draws your attention away
from the challenge you are facing to the success you may attain if you manage
to cross that hurdle before you.
There are actually no guarantees in life, the
fact that you imagined yourself succeeding at a particular endeavor does not
guarantee it will happen. Despite this, always dare to dream. The dream may not
eventually happen as you planned, but who knows what other positive outcome may
come from that dream. Like the saying goes ‘‘aim for the stars and maybe you
will touch the sky’’, who knows an equally good result may come even if it is
not exactly what you planned.
In summary, learn to be positive at all times. It doesn’t matter how dire a situation may look, if you can look beyond that situation,
maybe your subconscious mind will be able to think ‘‘solution’’. Applying this
solution may eventually get you the required result!
Have a wonderful week!
