Never Give Up: Your Dreams Are Possible

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Personal Development, Personal Growth

Even if things are not going well in your life, do not get discouraged. Don’t get frustrated. Do not beat yourself up. Do not tell yourself what you do not want to hear from other people.

Don’t focus on what you are going through. See what is happening in your life as a blessing. See what you are experiencing right now as a step forward. See what you are going through as a gift.

When you focus on positive things in your life, you will start to attract positive things into your life.

If you are not where you are supposed to be, that is okay. You are not done. God is not done with you. Where you are right now in your life is a temporary place.

You are on a journey. God has a lot more in store for you. If you do not give up, you will get there.

Dr. Wayne W. Dyer said, ‘Each place along the way is somewhere you had to be in order to be here.’ Beautiful!

That is why you shouldn’t give up on your dreams. And that is why you should never give up on yourself.

If you want your dreams to come true, you must focus on where you are going, not where you are coming from.

How To Get Other People To Trust You

Trust is everything. You can’t force other people to trust you. You can’t force your friends to trust you. You can’t force your spouse to trust you. You can’t force your coworkers to trust you. You can’t force your boss, your manager, to trust you.

You don’t demand trust from other people. You work for your trust. You earn it. Trust is what you get when you are true to yourself.

If you want people to trust you, don’t fight for your trust. Do not convince them to trust you. Be yourself.

Be yourself. Live your life. Do not lie to anyone. Do not even lie to yourself, even when no one is watching you.

Trust will come. People will trust you when you are a good person, you live with dignity, when you are true to yourself, when you love what you are doing, when you surround yourself with other trustworthy people.

And the best way to get people to trust you is to first trust yourself. If you do not trust yourself, no one is going to trust you.

You trust yourself when you do what you say you are going to do. People like that.

You trust yourself when you are not scared to tell people what they need to hear from you.

You trust yourself when your words and your actions are the same. They are not different.

You trust yourself when you do not take on things that you cannot do. You trust yourself when you know what you can do.

You trust yourself when you surround yourself with other trustworthy people. And you trust yourself when you live your life with integrity in every area of your life.

That is how you earn trust. Again, do not force people to trust you. Because trust is about your behavior.

It is about how you live your life. So if you want people to trust you, you must be true to yourself.

The question is, ‘Are you true to yourself?’
