Success could be your next life experience if you never give up. But, it’s not always easy.
In fact, if you’re like most people, your energy is high – your hope and motivations high – when you begin a new project. It doesn’t matter whether you’re starting a new company, beginning to write a new book or entering the early stages of a new relationship. At the start of a project, before you’ve experienced setbacks or challenges, you’re certain that you can win, that you’ll excel above your previous achievements.
Stay encouraged and never give up
Then you find out that not every element in the world is in alignment with your goals, your deepest dreams. Setbacks show up (i.e. time management issues, financial setbacks, family concerns) and your sense of hope, motivation and inspiration start to dwindle. You might even be tempted to throw in the towel and give up.
If this is where you currently are in your life, please let me encourage you. There are so many reasons why you should never give up, among them being:
- Your dreams can still come true. Setbacks don’t have to stop you permanently. Be flexible. Approach the achievement of a goal from a different angle. Listen to uplifting music. Get creative to allow both sides of your brain to assist you, but don’t give up on what you truly want.
- Lessons are buried in our setbacks. I know it’s doesn’t feel that way now, but if you keep your eyes and your ears (and of course, your mind) open, you could one or more valuable lessons as you continue to move through these experiences. Never give up; don’t rob yourself of the chance to gain insightful experiences as you pursue your dreams!
- Tools you gain from your current experiences might be used to teach others later.
- You have a right to keep believing in yourself.
- Joy is your birthright. If you give up on your dreams (I’m talking your deepest dreams), you may never experience the joy you could have had you kept trying, changed your approach to achieving your dreams, stayed open and listened to (and followed) the direction you receive from your Higher Self.
- The greatest source in the universe is pulling for you. Your Higher Self is pulling for you.
- Achieving your dreams will motivate, inspire and encourage others.
- Fulfilling your dreams could connect you will a universal mosaic that strengthens more people than you’ll ever know.
- If others have faced great setbacks and challenges (i.e. Nelson Mandela, Harriett Tubman, Joan of Arc, Thomas Edison) and they achieved their dreams, so can you.
Most of all, deep down within, you know you should never give up. You wouldn’t be reading this article if you didn’t know that deep down within.
