Keep Going!

Chapter 1: Strive

Being told to be strong makes us feel the weakest! Why?

Why do people tell us to be something that is hard to be sometimes and is not necessary. We should start to understand when we need to be strong or when we need to know that its okay to be weaker. Not everyone has to be strong and brave a hundred percent of the time.

Letting all these words and commands from people around us who chose to try and control us making us be something we are not, making us believe being ourselves is a mistake. That that's not the right way to behave or believe.

Part of us is flaking away because we become to blind to who we truly are, but just one second, just one little break to relax to understand ourselves and focus on who we are what we want to be can change a life. Many people who struggle in the past because they believed that everyone ruled the world that they believed they were not important enough to be around. I know those people, i am one!

Take that moment in time to see who you truly want to be, make others know that you can chose what you do and how to live life. life can only teach you somethings in life but life itself cannot tell you who you are and which way to take you. If you want to go to a place you admire, do it! If you want to explore or extend your knowledge and experiences let the strength of inspiration and interest drive you to achieve that.

You can be a doctor, a actress or even make your own business but if you don't take that wheel and put you foot on the pedal to start getting yourself closer to your goal and your future then nothing will change. If you let others tell you what you should do, then nothing will become of it. Your dreams and goals in life can just seem like a fantasy like its a dream to keep you going in life to escape what is in front of you.

What if I told you you can do it, you are good enough to do what you want to do. You wouldn't believe me right? well that can change that attitude towards the goal is normal for many when people are scared of moving ahead believing that social media shows you that unless you do what they do or be as successful as them then you can't do it. I have been there! Put those phones, tablets and laptops down work towards what you need to achieve because without the hard work, you will never let yourself reach your goal in life.

The princess and the frog inspired me and taught me if I want to achieve something in life then I need to make it happen not to wish on a star or fantasy about what could of been. Because if you don't try then how will you know if you can achieve what you want to do. if you don't put in those hours you will never see yourself as a success and keep yourself in that routine. Why? Why do you think your not good enough?

Your past is not important stop looking back and look in the present, see what you can do today to make your future what you love, let the past be the past, only see it as a learning opportunity, take that minor mistake and build upon it. You will have hundreds of people walking in and out of your life, they will say things you don't like or make you feel your not good enough, that your goal isn't worth trying. Stop those words filling you head. My future step-mother in law taught me just smile and wave let their comments their insecurities go in one ear and out the other. Its okay to feel pain but brush of the effect it might bring. let that strengthen your motivation your passion for you goal. Make the hate become a positive by showing them that nothing is going to stop you and that you can do anything no matter what they throw at you!

If you want to do something do it! Don't let any tom dick or harry tell you what you are capable of. If they can't support you in life they are not worth keeping in your life, if they put you down telling you that this is just a phase or your too away with the fairies in a fantasy land. Prove them wrong! Climb your way to your goal, climb those tall fences, climb those big mountains, drive yourself to reach what you want to do. Keep true to yourself and remind yourself this is who you are this is who you wan t to be if they say your the black sheep of the folk then so be it. Be that black sheep own your difference with a smile and be proud of who you became and what you have done for yourself. Because no one can be successful if they don't try and don't believe they can!
