A message from the future.
A while back in my journey through life I found myself at a fork in the road: I had a passion for helping people achieve their goals yet, entering into the new-age self-help industry is very difficult and intimidating at any age…let alone when you are a young pup. I knew that I had experienced some low lows and great triumphs. I knew that I had the knowledge and experience to help others achieve their goals. I just didn’t know how to turn this innate passion into a career. I was so scared to take the risk of doing what makes me happy due to great short-term sacrifice, potential failure and monetary loss. I kept up with my studies in motivational and inspirational literature, philosophy along with engaging in goal-oriented conversations. I was continuously enthralled with mulling over potential outcomes of starting my own coaching business, writing lists of the steps necessary to set up a fully-functional firm and even asking for other’s advice and approval about my decision. I was constantly making excesses to myself as to why I could not start the project. I was a victim of fear—fear of the unknown.
One day I experienced this epiphany—The first step is the hardest. I have told this philosophy of thought to many individuals—yet, was having this great difficulty actually implementing the advice in my own life. Once you start a project…the momentum builds and you realize its hard work…but you can do it! I learned that nothing worth having is going to come easy, but the fruits of your own blood, sweat and tears are sweet. All you can do is set goals and accomplish them with confidence. Hard work always pays off, even if there is a little bit of a delay. When you are discouraged, keep your head up and keep going. When you think that you cannot go any further…take another step. It is usually that last ditch effort that will be your key to success. As illustrated by you reading this story, things do work out if you are persistent in your efforts and never lose sight of what your goals and dreams are.
