I stand strong, stand still and believe every day I know I can!

As I was lying down under the sky lit up with bright stars, I felt I could almost touch them. They were staring at me, and I stared back.

As I looked harder, they looked brighter. The boat had stopped for the night and the beautiful mountains around me reminded me of my obstacles in life and how I couldn’t look past them.

I was making a list of the challenges I was facing, and the list was getting longer. However, as I was making the list, I was writing down a couple of solutions on how to solve them.

The key to succeeding to anything you want in your life or career is first identifying the obstacles around you. Sometimes the obstacles are us. We refuse to move from the current state of life or career we are in.

We are afraid to trust ourselves.

To take that leap of faith.

I would like you to say this along with me.

• I manage my time.
• I earn money?effortlessly by providing great value through my services
• I have an abundant intentionality mindset
• I help people live an abundant life?
• I bring a smile on people's faces?
• I light up the world around me
• I am kind and generous?
• I love myself?
• I understand how great I am?
• I define success as the different learning experiences that lead me to my Dream Career
• I live life to the fullest?

So, you see my obstacle list had everything I was doing and everything I had trouble and faced challenges with.

Now as I was writing my obstacles down, I was giving instructions to myself on how I want to do anything and everything in life.

It starts with Me. It starts with you.

The mountains are not the problem. The obstacles are not the problem. How you and I define them is!

I redefined my difficulties to cultivators. I need to cultivate them to give me the results I want.

I look at the solutions rather than the problems. I look at my abilities than my inability to face them.?

I fell asleep with the stary night above me. Something happened in the morning when we woke up.?

The birds and the sounds of the gentle waves woke me up.

I started thinking of some great solutions for some of my obstacles that I could not come up with at night.

The beautiful sunrise reminded me even though we set we rise again.

We must remember that the light we shine must be good. Filled with love and the valuables services we provide must bring light in the lives of the people we meet.

Here something we can all do one day at a time

• Lead by example
• Redefine happiness and success
• Share our experiences as a testimony on how the choices we make, the thoughts we have, have a ripple effect on our own lives and the people around us.
• Create awareness on how our interactions, our actions can either nourish or affect the people we meet everyday
• Finally remind ourselves the biggest asset we have is being alive, having the ability to learn and change our current situation by learning, rewiring our brains to understand that we are more than enough to achieve remarkable things in life. We all have come so far, haven't we?
• Be thankful for everything you have in life and start making insignificant changes to improve the way you live.
• Live purposefully and go after the career or life you love. You can do it. I know it's scary, I'm scared too but I'd rather say I tried!

What about you?

I wrote a poem for you and me let's read it together

I make an impact on the people I meet everyday

I let go of all doubts and I believe in myself

I understand what makes me stronger is HOW MUCH I believe in myself

I stand strong against the winds that try to knock me down by dusting of the weight that slows me down. Obstacles gives me opportunities, make me explore new ways of solving my challenges.

I am the fuel that drives me to go on. I am the driver of my life, and I will not let others take control of the steering wheel or make decisions or influence my decisions

I stand strong, stand still, and believe every day because I know I can!
