You Will Never Be The Same Person If You Give Up On Your Dream

If you want to be happy, follow your dream. Do not give up on your dream. Earl Nightingale once said, “Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway.” If you want to grow, do not worry about the time it will take you to get there. Instead, worry about not pursuing your dream.

“The act of taking the first step is what separates the winners from the losers.”- Brian Tracy

Because if you give up on your dream, you will never get to where you are going. Don’t do it. No one knows your dream better than you. You know why you are chasing your dream. You know why you are doing what you are doing. And you know where your dream is taking you. You know it better than anyone. Do not give it up. If you do, you will never find happiness. If you give up on your dream, you will never be happy with what you have. To avoid that, no matter what, you must work really hard to make your dream happen. You must do whatever it takes to make your dream happen, to live your dream, to enjoy the process. Process matters.

“First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.”- Epitectus

To make your dream come true, do not just talk about it, you must take action. In the words of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, “Action springs not from thought, but from a readiness for responsibility.” Take responsibility for your life, for your future, for your actions. Do not wait for anyone to do it for you. Because you know your dream better than anyone. Do not give up on your dream. If you can see it, if you can think it, if you can plan it, you can take action. And if you can take action, you can make it happen. Do it for YOU.

Stop Saying You Are Not Good Enough Yourself

Anthony Trollope said, “Never think that you’re not good enough yourself. A man should never say that: people will take you very much at your reckoning.” Don’t say anything stupid about yourself. Use the power of your words to change your life. Stop calling yourself names. Don’t judge yourself. No one is a perfect human being. Instead of calling yourself names, why not commit yourself to your life?

You are not defined by what you do; you are defined by love. Commit yourself to your own life. Make your life better. Because without commitment to your life, you can’t really do anything with your time. Don’t let your past define you. Don’t let what you went through in your life define you. Don’t let what other people have done to you define your future.

You are who are. No one is like you. God created you for a purpose. You are here to create, not to consume. And to fully create your own life, to fully live your life, to fully follow your path, you must take charge of your life. You must stop saying you are not good enough. It is not true. You are good enough. You are good enough for yourself. Whether people like how you live your life or not, you are good enough for yourself.

Never disrespect yourself. And do not let anyone disrespect you. Because you will get what you accept into your life. Stop blaming yourself. The past is gone. You can’t get it back. So why worry about it?

If you want to enjoy your life, you must stop telling yourself negative things. You must stop feeding your mind with bad things about yourself. You must stop living an average life. You must stop doing average things. You must do things that cause you to love yourself even more. No matter what you have done to yourself, forgive yourself and move on. To do that, you must renew your mind. Because you can’t change your life with old thoughts. You can do it. Let us start now.
