REPOST:
Life is a journey of ups and downs, like a cycle which takes a turn to give you both ends. There will be happiness or sadness, success or failures, love or heartaches, good or bad.
Oftentimes, you’ll be encountering situations where things are going smoothly your way then suddenly, in a blink of an eye, things crashed down to your face then turn your world up-side-down. In that moment you will feel distraught that you may find life so hard to live on.
But after the pain and darkness, there comes the joy and light. Now, you’ll start to ask yourself, “how to start all over again?”
Starting over isn’t hard, if you know these four (4) key principles:
1) Acceptance
Accept that life isn’t perfect, and it will never be perfect, so expect it to be hard. The best way to achieve happiness and success in life is through acceptance.
Instead of mourning and complaining on how difficult life is, shift your focus to how and why you have to act and make it different.
Remember that it’s not what happens to you, but how you handle what happens to you, that’s going to make the difference.
2) Learning
The good thing about setbacks or failure, are the lessons we learn if we did not experience them otherwise.
Once you’ve accepted the imperfection of your life and the situation that happened, take time to recognize the lessons you’ve learned from such experience. For this will be valuable wisdom you’ll be carrying over as you go along in your life.
3) Planning
Dream again. After failing, most people lose their appetite to still dream for fear of failing to achieve them.
The best story we can remember whenever we feel like giving up and walk away from our dreams is about the company named “7 UP”.
7-Up Success Story showed how a company have failed six (6) times and achieved success on the seventh (7) time. To learn more about 7-Up Success Story CLICK HERE or copy-paste this url: http://lifetofullest.com/7-up-success-story/
4) Moving on
Always keep a positive and grateful attitude.
Do you know the cartoon movie, “Meet the Robinsons”? It has a famous line that can extremely influence our attitude and it says “Keep moving forward”.
When you respond to life, that’s positive; when you react to life, that’s negative. The former clearly defines the meaning of “Keep moving forward”.
Whenever situations come to our lives, especially hard times, you always have two choices, a positive or negative. That’s to respond or react.
Reacting leads you nowhere but feeling restless and frustrated while responding gives you a perspective to stand up and keep on moving to life.
Most of life is learning and growing, falling and getting back up, accepting and going on. If you want to go far, you have to start the engine and drive
When you’re trying to improve or change anything in life it’s important to remember it’s a journey. It’s a process. Something with no true or real end, despite your massive desire of the opposite.
