ARE YOU AT THE VERGE OF GIVING UP? A MESSAGE FOR YOU
At some point in our lives, we feel like we have nothing left to give, no no matter how much we push harder, we often come across landmines and roadblocks that seem to hold us back.
Life is in stages and the process you undergo from the scratch to being an achiever is extremely challenging, stressful, painful and discouraging but the final product is success
There are so many countless number of potentials inside of you that you probably don't even realize. When you lose motivation and enthusiasm, a quick reminder of your potentials will put you on track.
It's always good to keep in mind that life isn't an easy journey, and to achieve a feat in life, you are definitely going to come across landmines that could derail one on the path to success. If you decide to give up at defeats, you will fail, but if you keep pushing forward, success awaits you.
If you have tried your efforts yet nothing seems to be working for you, I have a message for you that will keep you motivated and put you on track
1. When you quit people laugh at you
When you quit, you send the message that you are weak, and people will give you thousand of reasons to live life in negativity and to give up on your dreams. When you quit, you give those who always look down on you the chance to mock and laugh at you.
When someone says you can never do it, show that person you can. Don't let "impossibility" dominate your mind and rob you of your dreams. Try to read more, strive more, know more and work harder than the person next to you.
2. When there is life, there is hope
As long as you are alive, you can always overcome your challenges. Have it at the back of your mind that you will see the end of your challenges. Put your mind in everything you do and stop telling people what you are passing through so that they will have pity or sympathy on you.
Our dreams and visions always seem impossible at first but later, they seem improbable, and then, when we push forward, they manifest. The only thing that puts an end to all your problems and challenges is death, so you can still get out of that ugly situation in as much as you are still alive
3. Don't sell yourself out
Don’t sell yourself cheaply and don’t let anybody bring you down. That you are going through tough times does not mean you should not save yourself some self-worth and dignity. Always keep your self esteem and integrity intact, and have the mindset that "if I can dream it, I can actually do it.
4. Quitters never will and winners never quit
There have been millions of dreamers before you and if they had given up the world, the wouldn't be a better place to live in. Let me take you back to the story of two brothers, Wilbur and Orville Wright who faced sever mockery when they tried to make an airplane levitate
They became subject of mockery to people and they were told it was impossible. Their commitment and strife proved their doubters wrong, and today, air travel is the fastest and safest means of transportation.
4. No matter your situation, you are still better than others
Even if you think you’ve done all you can, you’re wrong. If you think no one is going through the same situation as you, you are also wrong. Everyone in life has his or her own problem and yours isn't different. Even the rich men you see driving luxurious cars and living in mansions have their own challenges too. No matter how terrible you think your situation is, you are still better than someone.
5. Never settle for less
Success comes from being unique and standing out among the crowd. If you settle for less, that’s all you will be and someone will surpass you. Always try to aim high in life and stop being a mediocre.
6. Nobody’s perfect
We are all human and we are bound to make mistakes. Realizing that it's perfectly normal to make a mistake is only part of the battle to that ultimate goal. Doing exploits and moving forward come from doing something the wrong way and being told how to do it right.
For example, riding a bike without training wheels isn’t an easy feat, but the moment we have mastered the rhythm and how to be in control, you keep your balance on it. To become an achiever, you need to do things the wrong way and people are definitely going to laugh you.
7. Success isn't rewarding if it comes cheaply
People do not really appreciate anything they achieve with the little or no effort. Reaching that ultimate goal is not always easy, so if it doesn't cost you your sweat, then you probably didn’t achieve it. Knowing that we went through hustle and struggle to earn that goal is more rewarding than the actual honour itself.
Remember that, behind every successful person, there is a story and a long-fought journey for him or her to get to where he or she is today.>quote
5. Rome was not built in a day
Have you ever seen some people on steemit with a very high reputation earning more than $200 on a post? How did you feel? Of course you felt and wish you were the one. Have you ever thought of the stress they went through before getting to that stage? Have you thought of those times they posted and they earned less a dollar?. My dear, life is a gradual process and no one climbs a ladder from them top.
Always know that nobody can create an empire in a day, and no business can become a multi-billion-dollar overnight. Bill Gates started as a nobody but with "one step at a time", he's ranked the richest man in the world. That is exactly how life is
Conclusion
There is a lot to say about rewriting drafts in our lives, and sometimes they need to be revised and edited multiple times before the finished copy can be published and celebrated.
No idea is worth throwing in the garbage if all the stops haven’t been pulled out yet. Never give up on your situation and strive to be an over comer
