5 Reasons Not To Give Up On Your Dreams
We all have a strongly desired dream or goal, but how often do we make them come true? When I was just a boy, early in my teens, I had great dreams with the feeling of ecstasy without any limitations.
However, when I grow a little older, and after hitting obstacles and failures, I stop believing in my dreams and the flavor to achieve them. I have survived rejection and discouragement from friends.
What are your ideal goals, plans, and visions? You may have decided to achieve something and start working on it with full focus and dedication. You are making progress at it but, you didn’t get the outcome as expected. I know what it feels like when your planned ideas hit the fence of failure. A negative thought will arise to devour your dreams. “I’m putting a lot of money and time into it but, I’m still not getting results. Let me quit and try something else.”
Now! when you are planning to quit, read this:5 reasons why not to give up on your dreams.
Take Failures As An Opportunity
Successful people fail far more often than unsuccessful people. They try more things, fall, pick themselves up, and try again- over and over again before they finally win.
Unsuccessful people try a few things, face an obstacle, and very soon quit and go back to what they were doing before.
Most people don’t pursue their dreams for fear of failure. Little do they know, this is one of the biggest ways we learn and grow!
You should look upon failure and temporary defeat as a part of the price that you pay on the road to the success that you desired.
Besides, nobody goes into business to fail. However, to truly find deep, long-lasting success, you must learn to both anticipate failure and own it when it happens. Every failure includes nuggets of success if you look for them. How you tackle failures or mistakes determines whether or not to give up on your dreams.
Successful people think about solutions most of the time.
Learn from the eagle when it faces a storm. Fearlessly, the eagle would fly into the fierce winds, using the storm current to rise higher quickly. The pressure of the storm is used to help them drift without their energy.
LESSON: No plan is perfect the first time it is created. Expect difficulties as a part of the process to succeed and resolve to respond to them effectively.
How Much Have You Already Invested?
How much have you invested in your dreams? How much money and time have you devoted to it? Measure the sacrifices you’ve made so far; with all the late-night sleep, are you willing to walk away from this hustling because you’re not feeling confident in your abilities?
Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul; the blueprints of your ultimate achievements. -Napolean Hill
How eager are you in achieving your goals? Think of how you started and where you intended to go from there. The starting point of all goals is desire.
Giving Up Is Not An Option-Never!
There are many reasons why people want to give up on their dreams. It is, first of all, the fear of failure, poverty, loss, or rejection that holds most people from trying to achieve anything new in life.
The primary obstacles between you and your goals are usually mental. Ask yourself, what is it in me that is holding me back? Look deep within yourself and identify the key factors in your personality, skills, habits, education, or experience that might be frightening you to give up.
When we give up on ourselves, we are not only giving up on what it is that we’re working towards but we’re also giving up on everything that we stand for.
