The Courage To Begin
In order to give up on something you first have to begin your journey. That’s a funny way of putting it, but I want you to realize that to begin something big oftentimes takes a lot of courage and now that you’re on your way to something, there’s really no reason to give up and start something different all over again.
Greatness is achieved through a series of small steps. Find inspiration in my journey in this short post.
Layout all the steps you’ll need to achieve your goal to make it easier. Make the first steps super small and easily achievable.
Self-Discipline Is A Key Ingredient
In order not to give up, you will need hell-of-a self-discipline. Yes, you’ll have to discipline yourself – not your parents, not your teacher and not your partner. Whenever you practice self-discipline, your self-esteem goes up and you’ll need both to succeed. Your mind is a powerful thing, you just have to train it and keep it inline.
“Never give in; never, never give in”
― Winston Churchill
You’ll Face Adversity – Most Definitely
On your way to achieving your goals, you will face many, many obstacles and naysayers. It is important to know this fact and to accept it. You will want to give up on many occasions but you have to decide early that you will not.
You don’t have to go on your journey alone. In fact, it would be very beneficial for you if you could find a mentor or someone who did it already and who you could shadow. I list 15 reasons why you should get a mentor ASAP.
Identify the biggest challenge you think you’ll be facing. Now imagine that it’s been sent to you to test your determination, passion, and ambition. Will you give up or will you tackle it?
In many instances, it’s easier to continue with something than to give up and start all over again in the future. Trust me, I know 😉
