Most people don’t experience the life of their dreams simply because they quit way too easily.
Not giving up on your dreams also means to be smart however. You can try all you want but if you’re taking the wrong set of actions, you’re not going to get very far.
Setting a goal is like dreaming that easily. You see in your vision the path that is polish and paved smoothly but in reality that road to your goal of success isn't that easy. At times there are loads of bumps of ups and downs other times there's this hole with water on it, Sometimes that road is muddy and sticky preventing you to move out and stuck you unto it for a period of time but there are also times that it isn't muddy, but rather surprisingly, though full of mud but this time it is mud but sandy allowing you to just pass through to it. That means you have overcome the most difficult road of life and now you are just shaking the next step of the muddy road of your way to that success of your sited goal.
Some writer says and I quoted to list and include here is this;
“Nothing could be worse than the fear that one had given up too soon, and left one unexpended effort that might have saved the world.” (Jane Addams).
In the Bible, Judas is one example of this. Because of the spark of that gold, He'd gone given up his faith, and have sold his master, because of gold(money). But it was so, because that is how the word is written. Peter is another one who had promise to not bow to his master no matter what happen, but in the end because of fear, 'the fear of the unknown', He disown his master.
We easily given up because of fear, of not making it to the end. We always have this "what if " attitude that is slowly sawing and grinding our hope to that beaming peace of success. But sometimes it is allowed in some circumstances because like a ball when it hit hard on the ground it will bounce back and reaching higher level of easy road.
I once had a journey trip with a group of seven in a van plus the driver. As we are traveling on that 8 hours drive to the mountain tops we enjoy the scenery view and the wind breeze; some maybe think they are on their crib asleep while they are enjoying the rocking and lullaby of the car engine. But despite our pleasure as a passenger one person is in vain, fighting for the safety of the car and its passenger. He tries to be sure his goal is to make it to that end of that destiny safe and sound, that is his goal.
But along the way something had happened the car needs water because it was heated up and the window was covered with dust and the car tires need checking and tightening. He stop the car on the spot where he sees there was water and it was accessible to collect and make it to the car. He makes sure there is safety also for he knows his passenger might enjoy a short break and try to explore the strange and country place. So before he let us out he makes us sure we understood the instructions he had delivered. Then we all went gee lay and happy and enjoy they creek water. We had to go down to the river banks from the road stop. The driver was left behind doesn't know which way to do first.
Life is going to find way to test you. At times, you may feel that life is unfair. The urge to quit during these times are the highest but don’t give in. Whatever your dream is, if it’s important to you, then fight for it. Just remember that there is more than one way to achieve your dreams. If one way doesn’t work, just change your strategy. Never giving up doesn’t mean you keep doing the wrong things over and over, it means to be smart and figure out the correct actions to take and then taking them even with burdens until you achieve your dreams and goal.
Ralph Waldo Emerson once quoted;
“Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising which tempt you to believe that your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end, requires courage.”
So the van driver had figured out what to do first secure the car engine, check the tires, fill the water tank, while watching everyone, it is still his responsibility to see to it that the chickens (his passengers) will not go astray (*.*). And stretching his body and relax for a while there another 3 hours bumpy road to travel he thought. So after few more minutes gathered everyone and check them if they have perfect attendance before he start the engine and move on. He was delighted that everyone was refresh and relax and the car is conditioned. So the journey went on with prayers of safe journey as we go to our destiny.
Lastly, Don't give up on your life journey, figure out how to overcome obstacles and get rid of hindrances even if that means the world to you. You can't go on with loads of burdens. You will not going to make it to your goal.
Have a great day everyone!
