You want something really bad.
You give your best, your 200 percent, to have it.
You manifest, show gratitude, and listen to affirmations.
You start believing and imagining that you’ve already achieved it,
only to realize one day that you’ve terribly failed.
How do you feel at that very moment? The beautiful picture that you had created comes crashing down, and you feel hopeless and helpless. Isn’t it?
Well, how do you deal with this kind of situation in your life? Do you curse the Universe or the Almighty, or simply say, “Maybe I’m not worthy of it”?
It’s difficult to face such life events where you know you’ve gone through a lot but still end up unsuccessful. But that’s life; it seldom goes the way we want it to, isn’t it?
And soon comes a time when you have to address the elephant in the room. You somehow have to decide your next course of action despite feeling hopeless and sad at the moment.
Is it easy to even think about trying again?
NO. AN ABSOLUTE NO.
But do you have any other option left?
Again, no, right?
While you come to terms with reality, you wonder, “If only things were in my hands,” don’t you? Unfortunately, results are never in your hands. Trying harder the next time is all that you can do. And ultimately, you ought to do what’s needed to succeed, no matter how little the success rate is.
I understand that the mere thought of going through the same process all over again is nerve-wracking but remember — sometimes things aren’t in our hands. What’s in our hands is trying.
Are you ready to keep trying until success comes your way? Because you know that little proverb which you once wrote as the thought for the day on your school’s blackboard — “Try, try till you succeed.”
Isn’t it making so much sense now? But who knew the intensity of it back then!
Well, that’s what we call adulting. It’s never easy-peasy.
Let’s cry about the failure first. Cry until your eyes dry up completely and make you stronger. Take a break (a much-needed one), and then start afresh — with a positive mindset. Also, don’t forget to look around you and be grateful for things who have and others don’t. That’ll make your misery a little less painful. And then say –
“This time I’ll be a winner!”
I don’t know who needed to read this, but here you are — some words of wisdom for you, my dear reader. I hope they help you in some way or another in your life right now.
I’ll see you soon in the next blog!
Till then, take care! Bye.
