Every Failure is a Step to Success!

“34.2 million Americans experience some phobia of failure. The most common is personal failure.” This illustrates that their are 34.2 million people not living their best lives because of themselves and YOU might be one of them!

There is a constant internal struggle betweens stepping outside of your comfort zone and achieving the life you dream of and the fear that lives on the other side of that door. There is a factor of things that prohibit us from pursuing our goals. Judgement, unemployment, isolation are just a few haunting thoughts that are behind the pretty dream. Many people don’t even attempt any of their goals unless its guaranteed success because there phobia is so strong. This phobia keeps them in a constant cycle of dissatisfaction and low-self esteem but at least their comfortable right?!

Failure is all about perspective. In reality outside of your anxiety, every failure is a stepping stone to your ideal goals. Even when you discover something you dislike you’re one step closer to finding something that you do like but when we don’t attempt to discover our own personal interest we are stuck unsatisfied with our own choices. You’re always in control of the direction that you want your life to reflect. Everything you desire , the universe wants to deliver to you but you can’t be in your own way.

We have to fail to become better at our craft or our interest. Failure is not personal it is apart of success. We must learn to embrace it as that instead of allowing it to discourage us . Once we embrace a fearless attitude towards failure, will we be able to reach our fullest potential . We must allow ourselves to be students always even when we’ve become masters to fully evolve to the highest form in our crafts.

The Art of Patience

“Rome wasn’t built in a day, but they worked on it everyday .” – Unknown

Everyday we live in constant desire to want more and more and more. Living in the age of social media we are constantly comparing what we have to others. Wondering when will we get that life? When will we be that successful and happy? These lingering questions leave us disrupted in our progress. It’s becomes harder to see the big picture when it’s not in front of us. It’s a cycle of burnout , self-sabotage, & incompletion. The mentality of gratitude and patiences is a cycle of rejuvenation that promotes progression in our lives.

We all go through similar feelings. Mainly, the overwhelming illusion as if you’re running out of time or the pressure to do more than your doing because it’s not reaping the benefits quick enough. Ask yourself ,”maybe what I’m asking for isn’t meant to be fast”. Society has this myth that success happens overnight and you have to be perfect or lucky to reach it. In reality, all of your idols took time and detail to build the foundation that they have . Everything you’re doing is exactly where you’re supposed to be. Success can not come into alignment before you’re ready.

Patience is a skill not an inherent trait. It’s the base of every good habit. It brings in relaxation instead of self-sabotage. The present moment can embrace you through patience even when you run into disappointments and worry. To slow down your mind and focus on the progress you’ve made instead of what you haven’t allows you to sit back and congratulate yourself. Be proud of what you’ve done, so you can encourage yourself to go further.

Some ways to practice patience and bring peace into your life is by :

  1. Stop! Drop! and Think!
  2. Remind yourself of your accomplishments
  3. Discover where this impatient energy is coming from inside
