Doubts

One of the things that prevent us from doing is doubting. There is always that voice inside our head lurking making us second-guess ourselves. No matter how strong we can be, it's something we have to be aware of. 

We doubt because:

  • We don't want to get hurt if something doesn't go the way we want (protection)
  • We don't want to feel ashame or unworthy (worthiness)
  • We do not know how the future's going to unfold (unknown/ future)
  • We fear of not being enough- comparison trap (whole person)
  • We associate the present with prior experiences (past)
When you feel doubt, accept it as a normal emotion. Do not view doubt as a negative feeling you have to get rid of. Do not resist. Accept that you are having doubts, and there are valid reasons why you are feeling like that. Elaborate more on those reasons and balance everything out. It might not be as bad as you think. After you take in time to reflect, let everything out. Slowly begin to doubt your doubts and let them go.

Of course, most of the time, it's easy to doubt rather than having faith in our potential. We have to keep believing in ourselves. Have faith and trust in yourself and the universe.

Tiny steps

I admit, I lost track again. It's alright. We all do. Things happen. Stumbles are part of the journey. To get back to life, take tiny steps. 1 single action. The key is it doesn't have to be huge, only enough to get you started again.

Consistency

You've got to be consistent in whatever you do. To improve, learn, and be successful, you've got to be committed and consistently do what you must, in order to move in the direction of your dreams. Consistency will determine the value of your determination and how far you will get. Of course, it's not an easy task- to stay focus and not lose faith. Hang in there, 0.1% improvement is always better than zero. Over time it compounds and leads to unexpected results. Be driven by the system, by the action, by what it takes. Persevere and be consistent.

Gratitude

As this year comes to a close, I believe the most rewarding action to take is to list down all the things you are grateful for. It will be a gateway to reflect on all that happened during the year. It'll be an opportunity to unwind and see all the blessings you received. Sometimes what appears to be challenging and undesirable turned out to be a learning curve.  This is the time to be reminded of all the lessons learnt. Life has so much to teach us, but all lessons are learnt within and kept inside. Be aware that we have all that we need at any given time. I'm grateful for 2017 and all that it came with. Count your blessings.
