It is easy to sit back and let life pass you by. Everyone fears failure, but the one sure way to fail at something is to never give it a go. So today, I encourage you to be brave, step out and try, because trying is the first step to succeeding.
Achievement doesn’t happen immediately. Most of the time it’s a slow uphill walk. But gradually, over time, the landscape changes, you near the top, and suddenly you’re there.
When you feel you can’t move another step, when you feel crippled with fear, watch something that will make you laugh. Dance when life rains down on you. You will be amazed at what a difference this will make.
Next time something embarrassing happens to you, don’t think of how embarrassing it is, don’t beat yourself up about something you can’t change, instead re-frame the story in your mind. Think about how you will tell the story to your friends to make it a funny and entertaining. Let the story you tell make you smile and laugh out loud.
Right now, it may seem like you are stuck in a dark tunnel; like the pain, fear and desperation you feel is just how your life will be. But that is not true. You won’t always feel this way; people, situations, locations and feelings all change. Think of other times in your life where you felt like nothing would change. Now remember that they did.
