At what point do you begin living your life? When you’ve had enough of people telling you what to do? Or when you look back and see that you’ve done nothing but existing? Each of us has a passion that burns in our hearts and those who are ready to take charge of it will make sure it becomes a reality in their daily living. But how long before it actually happens? Does it need to be pointed out by strangers? Does it need to be reminded daily? Does it need to hurt before it can happen?
When you take a moment in your life to pause and think about what has occurred, do you see positive changes happening all around you? Or do you recognize that you’ve not done enough to make certain those good growth is around you? Sometimes we feel too comfortable and so asking our hearts to change means we have to get up and do. And doing is what is such a hard task to do because it’s forcing us to change to be better. You can read all the self-help books you want but if you don’t apply those changes, in the end, all you’ve done is read a lot of books.
When you wake up and look at what is in front of you, ask yourself the purpose you’ve sought out thus far. What is it that keeps you going and what keeps you motivated every single day. How can you prevent yourself from slipping into an abyss that makes you lose your will to thrive? And how are you handling negative feedbacks from people? All these and more matter in how you look at yourself, how you maintain a positive outlook, and how you keep yourself going when it comes to a snail like speed in life.
Sometimes what you need is to recharge…to ask yourself again where your heart was when it wanted change…when you needed to make things better…what did you see? How did you feel? Start at the beginning again and put together a new plan to get to the goals that you know is possible but your own heart is not willing to do because it requires you to change.
