Against The Wall

 


Against The Wall

    It's amazing what you can accomplish when your back is against the wall and you have no choice but to accomplish the goals and tasks set in front of you. When the money is low ad the bills are stacking up or a deadline that was set for you is fastly approaching. You'll find ways and possibilities you would never under normal circumstances to accomplish a goal or too just plain survive another day. These times allow our minds to become very creative and fear goes out the window, in all because there is no other option but to make it and survive. When you're out of your comfort zone and money and time are at odds against you. The human mind does what it does best, finds a way to survive and keep going. There is another half to this battle though and that is knowing what your goals are, setting them, and following through with them. Setting the fear and doubt aside and going after it with daily persistence and never giving up. There are days where it seems the whole world is against you and thinking no one wants to see you succeed. In reality, it is a battle against your own mind and the solution is just getting out of your own way. Your mind is designed to protect you from anything that is uncomfortable and or appears to be dangerous. So essentially, self-doubt is your mind trying to keep you safe and in your comfort zone. It's a hard fight, but one that is worth the struggle to overcome and make something of yourself, bettering yourself. Go after everything knowing that success and failure play hand in hand and both will have their lessons to offer. It will all help you grow and learn, gain wisdom and knowledge. The trick is not to forget the lessons these trials have taught you, if you do your bound to make the same mistakes again. On your death bed, regret will be the worst pain.
