A FEW THOUGHTS

Those words can either be interpreted as really demotivating or as a motivating call for action. Think about it; Who can actually make you happy or bring you down? Who can make sure you fulfill your dreams ? Who can make sure you meet the expectations set by yourself or others?

It can be exercise where you train for a certain goal or just to get in better shape. It might be your spirit is a bit low a certain day, or you are in a bad mood a whole week. It can be meeting the expectations set by yourself for self-development, or evolving professionally according to a plan set by your employer. Finally getting started on those travel plans, making arrangements for a great personal event or making an old dream come true in any way.  

Goals can be set by others. Other people may put obstacles in your way, or try to bring your spirit down. People may have a bad day and try to inflict that on you. We also know that envy many times can cause other anger and despair.  All of these challenges can be beat with the right “jedi-mind” and “good old perseverance”.

Remember The Matrix ?

You have to let it all go. Fear, doubt, and disbelief. Free Your Mind.

On the positive side; you have friends around you that want to help you on your way. You have co-workers and bosses that want to see you meet your challenges and goals. All of these will try to help you if you let them. But no matter how much help you get from others, it will still be all up to you to make it come true.

I am not going to try to convince you that you can fly or jump 100 feet between roofs!
But I would like to convince you that when it all comes down to it, you are the one in control of your own mind. You can decide whether you want to be in a good mood or a bad mood the rest of the day. It might take some practice but you can turn your day around. You need to make the difference yourself when it comes to making plans and making your dreams come true. Nobody will exercise for you. Others might try to live your dreams but for you to make them happen for yourself you need to do the work. 

In a way those words can be de-motivating. Or they can be up-lifting and liberating.
Let’s try to stay positive..
