Please Don't Give Up

I’ve been talking a lot about finding your purpose lately and as usual, I probably have over simplified it; I tend to do that with stuff. But I know this; those who succeed in achieving their purposes and dreams always have one common characteristic. They never give up. 

 There have been many times I have felt like giving up.

 If you are struggling, perhaps this might be of some encouragement.  Here are a few thoughts.

There is No Perfect Time

If you are waiting on fulfilling your purpose until the conditions in your life are just right, chances are you’ll be waiting a long time. There is no perfect time to do something. It’s one of the secrets of success to know this. Looking for the perfect time is just an excuse to procrastinate.

Instead of giving up, continue from where you are with what you’ve got. In six months, you can either have gotten closer to your dreams or be exactly in the same place that you are today.

Never give up just because you think the time isn’t right.

Trust that You Will Find a Way

Sure, everyone wants to see the entire route and pitfalls before they begin their journey. Trouble is that the ideal route to your goal doesn’t exist. This is because no one has ever traveled the unique path that you require. No one on earth has had the same experiences as you. Therefore, your path to your purpose will be the one that you create.

Instead of giving up, trust that you will find the way as you go along. Never give up on your goals until you are certain that you’ve reached your desired destination.

Find  Answers and Motivation Within

God has put your best answers within you! This might sound funny, but only you and him have been present throughout your entire life. Therefore, no one on earth is better qualified to provide solutions regarding your life than you.

There’s nothing wrong with getting advice and ideas from other people. But ultimately, only you know the best solution for yourself. This idea parallels with the principle of accepting 100% responsibility for your life. Full acceptance of this responsibility will ensure that you never give up.

Thoughts Lead to Fulfillment

There’s a proverb that says, as he thinks in his heart, so he is. The Law of Attraction states that what you think about you bring about. So it’s very important that you choose your thoughts carefully. The L of A has worked so many times in my life in both bad and good ways depending on the focus of my thoughts that it’s impossible to ignore and exciting to embrace. If you stay clearly focused on what you want, you’ll never give up.

Nothing Worthwhile is Easy

I wish that was not true but can you think of a single impressive accomplishment by you or someone else that was easily attained? It’s the difficulty of the climb that makes the view at the summit so magnificent!

Look at what happens to lottery winners and people who inherit large sums of money. Many of them get into serious trouble or go broke. Ask almost any retired person who was successful what they enjoyed most in their life. They would probably tell you that they enjoyed the challenges and the struggles and the rewards for prevailing over them.

Giving up is easy. To never give up is worthwhile. Please don’t give up on fulfilling your purpose!
