For a moment, just
pull yourself out of the situation and think about it. Try to steer your
thoughts in a positive direction. It isn’t easy to stop doubting yourself for
any reason, but it is so worth it when you do.
It’s a hard habit to break. But
once you start thinking positively more positive things will happen in your
life. It isn’t an immediate response though. You just have to believe that the
more positive you think, the more positive the outcomes of your endeavours will
be. It’s not going to be an overnight phenomenon. Sadly it takes time. But be
confident that thinking positively will bring more positive situations to light.
Even when you feel your caught in a chasm, as we often do, just look at with a
positive mind and great things will come.
You might not get to where you want
to be immediately, it does take time to get there and hearsay. Be open to help
from all over the place your friends, family or even strangers.
Our fears are exaggerated. They usually are anyway. How many
times have you done something you dreaded yet come away thinking it wasn’t that
bad? How do we overcome this? By facing our fears! It’s not as scary as it
sounds. I know it doesn’t feel like it but everyone is in the same boat.
Just
for a second, I’d like you to imagine yourself without fears. It wouldn’t make
you, you. And if we didn’t have fears, life wouldn’t be challenging. Challenges
make life interesting, versatile and are the reasons your journey is so
different or similar to mine. But nobody’s backstory is the same. That’s what
makes life fascinating and perhaps, if you’re a writer like me, note-worthy. No
one can tell the same story.
It’s like when you read a book, you might not pick
out the section that I find interesting. We all have different tastes and
there’s nothing wrong with that. There will always be someone who doesn’t like
what you like, but when you come across this person or people you just need to
have the confidence to say: ‘This won’t shake me. I’m built of stronger matter
than that.’
