Never stop fighting. Push on and persevere

Being in the touch football team and mountaineering team during my teenage years, I had lots of trainings. I would go for my mountaineering training and thereafter rush to my touch football training. At times I would just want to give up during my trainings due to the physical pain. Moreover, the mind was being an ass, having negative thoughts implying to me to give up. I persevered and I pushed on all the way. Some times, I would end up being the slowest in the team but that was fine as the aim was to complete the training without giving up. Once that was established I would push myself to run faster and not be the last one. It was all about perseverance, not giving in to the pain and the thoughts in my head.

I once climbed a mountain and that journey was tough. It was within the first hour that I felt like giving up. I had all kind of thoughts in my mind to give up. I wanted to complain, cry, shout but I did not do it out aloud. It all happened in my mind. Nevertheless, I was adamant to conquer myself and the mountain. I had an aim and a purpose and no matter what, I wanted to reach the top and I did. We conquered ourselves and the mountain within 1.5/2 days. This was just one incident in my life. There are many incidents in life where we want to give up. Give up on ourselves, on our dreams and goals, on the life we want, on our relationship with others etc. Of course, we should let go of certain things that is harming us/others but do not let go because you doubt you can achieve it and due to the negativity of people/environment and your mind.

You may want that dream house, that life, that income, that pet, a specific kind of husband or wife, an island, be famous, be heavenly rich, whatever is it that you want, don’t give up. You have worked so damn hard for it. Yes, along the way things becomes difficult. At times it gets unbearable but push on. The difficult times are there to teach you something that may help you gain a step or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 towards your dream and purpose in life. It is there to help you, don’t see it as a hindrance. Everything in life happens to us for a reason, which brings us a step forward to our purpose in life.

Persevere on. Do not let trivial things stop you from making use of your full potential. Or even humans. You may come across people who are there to pull you down deeper into the hole. Don’t let them do such, don’t lose out on your perfect life and wants due to these people and problems. Look back at where you started and where you are now. You have came so far, why give up now. If you feel you have not progress enough then my friend, you are wrong. Even if it is 1 step it is progression. No matter how slow that progression is, it is still progression. If you feel that you are stuck at the same place then I would still say there is progression because something is telling you that you need to change something for it to work.

So, if you are thinking of giving up due to whatever reasons then my friend, let all the damn frustration out, blow off the steam and continue on with the hard work and effort! Tired? Rest, don’t give up. Continue pushing on! You are progressing and you believe that you will reach your goal.
