Are you willing to take the hits and keep on moving forward?
Will you play the blame game and keep on pointing fingers at society, social media, friends, family, your job or are you going to start taking responsibilities and accountability?
How much do you think you are worth?
How are you going to show the world that you are going to make a difference by putting some passion and effort into everything that you do?
Will be back posting this Wednesday
Have a great start of the week everyone!
When the going gets tough...
We start :
-complaining
-procrastinating
-blaming
-running
-avoiding
This all takes too much negative energy, instead of facing your problems and fears with stoic determination to resolve it.
When the going gets tough ....we get going *no really...we try to avoid pain asap* and we will constantly ask ourselves "what if?"
What do you think? How did you feel when you overcame such great obstacles?
What does giving up mean to you?
This is a great little (:-P) video.
Puts a smile on your face.
Were there times in your life when you wanted to quit but kept on going?
What kept you going?
Why didn't you stop?
Kiwi had a dream to fly and worked hard to achieve it.
This is a new day and a new week for all of us.
What are you willing to work hard for?
What new goals will you accomplish and what new dreams will you imagine?
Rock Bottom: Really? Is it really rock bottom that you've hit?
All of us have gone through tough tough times.
However we are all still here living, loving, enjoying life in our own moments.
What obstacles in life did you overcome?
Think about them and smile to recognize that you have become stronger and stronger each time you battle through difficult times and situations in life.
Are you afraid of what the world will think of your dreams and ideas?
"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
--- Frank Herbert, Dune - Bene Gesserit Litany Against Fear---
"Power is of two kinds. One is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love. Power based on love is a thousand times more effective and permanent then the one derived from fear of punishment. "
---Mohandas Gandhi---
External influences do play a role in shaping how we make choices in life. The external factors are everywhere: Billboards, music, art, fashion, movies, business etc.
They can sometimes be so crippling that we are unable to make the choices that we know are right for us.
Some of us say we do not have choices. We all have choices. We chose to work at a 9-5 job because we believe that its secure and steady. We chose to work at a particular company. We chose to live a certain lifestyle.
We all make choices everyday. Consciously and subconsciously.
We do not want to be embarrassed or rejected, so lets not follow this particular dream. The truth of the matter is that following our dreams, aspirations and goals take work….LOTS of work. So we tend to choose the easier path and spend our time complaining or wondering about what if scenarios instead of taking action towards our goals and dreams.
What is it that you have been wanting to pursue but was always a bit nervous to start?
