Courage and Persistence

More_Persistence_Increase_Persistent_02-300x180

We need courage to see a lot of things through. If we have a vision for self-fulfillment, it needs a lot of courage and persistent. If we have a goal to attain, we need to have courage and persistence. We may feel that lots of things are slowing us down and that could be finances, time, ability etc. However, somehow we have this urge to continue going as if the Universe or just plain Life is giving you signs to advance forward.

I don’t mean to sound all new-agey when I say that the Universe gives you sign but even if we took coincidences as signs, we have to agree that life is pulling us in a certain direction. That is why I feel it is the right thing to be absolutely sure that what you want to go for is worth the investment. You may have to prove things to yourself first and trust me, it is our own laziness that we have to overcome first.

Despite that being said, only you can judge yourself and only you truly make the decision. Don’t expect others to support you in your quest, no matter how well intentioned people may be, it is nothing compared to the support you get from your own self.

Whatever you get from this little message today, just keep going forward with awareness. Make your case if your decision affects others. Then go and strive. Work smart for it. Be persistence and thrive courageously.

Decisions

decisionsThere are times that I look back and I wonder:

What more could I have done?
What else was possible?
Did I do my best?
Did I try hard enough?

You are number one!
When it comes to making decisions, the number one person has to be you. Yes, the effect of whatever you decide will have an impact on others and certain situations but your happiness has to be in your hands. No one else can determine your happiness. If you feel happy, go for it. If you feel sad, then do what makes you happy.

Be real!
Just be real about things. Yes, you may doubt whether what you are doing is right or wrong but be real about how you feel. Don’t mask anything to please others. However, listen, observe and carry on doing what feels right in your being. This is the way to move forward. If something is not right then drop it and go to plan B.

Always have a plan B…
Without a plan B, it is just shoddy planning. Never lose focus but never depend on all of the eggs in your basket. Not every one will hatch and chirp away. So be ready for hiccups, be prepared for challenges and delays but stay committed.

Plan C, D or E…
Whatever the plan is that you must fall back on, every plan should lead to the same destination. All they are are simply different routes. This is the attention that is required when making a decision and sticking with it.

Different wavelengths
Not everyone is on your wavelength. The wise, meaning those ahead of you will encourage you to follow your being and what you want. They will be positive and give you that inspiration that is required. Then there are some, who are behind and they may emotionally manipulate you, try to scrap your plans but you need to stay focussed. It is important to listen to them, take what they say and check within yourself if it is worth considering. If you feel nauseas about it then stop thinking about it and move forward with your decision. 

Go for it
Whatever you decide, just go for it and don’t look back. You may regret things later, you may celebrate this decision later but the regret of not going ahead with your decision will be a bigger regret than staying with the status quo and avoiding the challenge. Just go for it and forget the rest. Stay focussed on the target, be the target and your decision is your mastermind.
