Things may happen around us, but the most important things are those that happen within us personally. What lies ahead and what lies behind have little impact on what lies within us.
In my coaching experiences, I have found that people do not fail because they aim too high, but because they have done what I have done: they set their goals too low and hit them. Many of us know: when we have goals, things happen. When you have goals and expectations, be aware that you may encounter resistance. Then it is even more important that you hold on to your dreams and goals. Life holds many surprises for us, it will catch you at your weak point. Do not walk around and lament your suffering. 80% of society doesn't care, and 20% are glad it happened to you. This is normal and part of life. In such situations, you must not hang your head. Things happen in life, but without a test, there is no testimony. When you look at your life, it is not always easy. It is hard not to lose courage. It is hard to lose someone. It is not easy to start over again. People who are hungry are willing to make the necessary effort, to pay the necessary price. They are willing to DO something. Others are not willing to do that. If you are serious about your goal and hungry enough, you are ready to achieve it. Just as you are willing to DO more than others, you must stand out from the crowd. What I have learned in life: successful people have three things: they have clear goals, they are willing to pay the necessary price, and they let go of unnecessary things. They have the ability to invest more time than other people, and they can even imagine doing so.
Each of us is ready to achieve much more than we can imagine. Each of us can achieve much more than we can imagine, in areas we have never explored. All you have to do is hold on to your dreams and goals, be disciplined, and work on the vision. Belief without action is dead. Take paths where there have been none before and make your own tracks. When we look at our actions, let us remember that we must be hungry. Focus on what you want, not on what you don't want. Focus on few goals and set interim goals. You have the necessary greatness within you. Do not focus on people who want to hold you back. When the hunger is great enough, chances no longer matter. Most people never reach their goals because they focus too much on negative situations and have too many energy-draining people around them. When you look at your life, look at your goals and future, and consider your environment, question them. Difficult decisions are not difficult because we don't know the answer. Difficult decisions are difficult because we know the answer and do not have the courage to act accordingly. You see, it's easy to blame politicians. It's easy to blame the economy. It's easy to blame the environment and point the finger at circumstances. So, you must act and keep the hunger.
