This isn’t about faith or spirituality. It’s about your human spirit buried deep inside, just waiting to be recognized.
In life there are many reasons to keep going, to make a difference, to be successful, to hope and care, but they all pale besides the most obvious reason of all …
… you must believe in “Self” first. Really believe that you have a personal worth, a value in and of itself.
The starting point from which you grow.
Without recognizing your own singular value as a human being, it is guaranteed that the roads
you travel will be less smooth, the terrain much rockier, the slopes much steeper.
But, when you believe in you, you become a guide for yourself
- you can plan for a better day, a better outcome.
- you gain strength, acquiring fortitude to help face life’s hard challenges. It doesn’t give you more capability, but will endow you with added courage when needed.
- you hold the fundamental key, the most important belief you can have as an essential, living and functioning human being – that of your own unique value and worth.
It’s not easy. It does seem that too often, we make mistakes, fail, hesitate, choose poorly and so forth. These are life experiences – better known as life’s learning lessons because we do learn through our errors. The thing to remember is to have the courage to get up and keep going.
And …
trust me on this one …
it’s a lot easier to get back up when you believe you can do it!
Take it from one who knows,
