Challenges Strengthen Us or Run Us Over

“The challenges in our lives are there to strengthen our convictions. They are not there to run us over” by Nick Vujicic. 

If you want to grow your muscles, you need to work out. Pressure helps you to build your muscles. The same can be said about challenges. They build your spiritual muscles. They are not meant to destroy you or dishearten you, or make you powerless. No, on the contrary, they can make you into a spiritual giant if you accept them and use to your advantage to make you stronger. If they have worked for the author of the quote (he is without limbs), they can work for our benefit too.

Do not Let Others Shape Your Destiny

“Don’t let someone else’s opinion of you become your reality” by Les Brown. 

People impact our lives for better or for worse. It is good if they impact it for better. However, even if that’s the case you need to determine who you are, what you want and develop a strategy to achieve it on your own. Others should not think instead of you. They cannot know you as much as you know yourself. You do know what is inside of you and only your opinion about yourself should impact your future self. Let others take care after their destiny, not yours.

How Bad Do You Want to Succeed

“When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you will be successful” by Eric Thomas. 

Wishing for victory is not the same as being desperate about it. We need to reach that state when we would not tolerate any thought about unfavorable outcome. What you concentrate on, it will manifest most often in your life. Achievement has very little to do with luck. You don’t need to be born lucky to become great at something or to gain what you badly want. Intensity of your desire will bring about change that you dream about. So, intensify your thirst for the result you are after.

What You Become Achieving Your Goals

„What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals“ by Zig Ziglar. 

People often concentrate on visible physical outcome, blessings, material prosperity when they think about success and achievements. However, this is not the main aspect of being successful. On the road to success you change in many ways. You become a different you. Why? Because you are moving, leaving things behind, discovering new things, rejecting old ways of thinking and adopting new ones. You would also hardly ever achieve things you want to achieve if you don’t change and refuse to become a completely different you.

Discipline is Your Road to Success

“Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment” by Jim Rohn..

If you don’t have goals you will not even start going anywhere and be stuck where you are till you understand what you really want in life. If you do know what you want, but don’t do anything about it on a regular basis you are just stamping around. You need a road to walk on and that road is your daily discipline. Nobody becomes a good writer, sportsman, investor or an artist without doing anything or over a night. Become are hardly ever born great, they become great and discipline is the key to achieving that.

Your Decisions Determine Your Future

„It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped“ by Tony Robbins. 

What you do today will surely affect how you live tomorrow. It is the law of sowing and reaping in practice. You cannot just think evil thoughts, speak evil words, do evil things and expect good results. No, it is the other way around. Your decisions will catch you later in life. You are building your personality. Your future is determined today by you and choices you make. Who and what do you want to become? Decide today and start going in that direction from this moment. If you go with the flow you will have results that most of the crowd has. Dare to be different and pursue what you believe to be valuable. God bless you!
