How many times have you felt discouraged? Ever heard the phrase, 'so close and yet so far?' People will tell you their view of how long they believe it will take to get to where you want to go, but how do they really know? Nobody knows you better than you do. Sometimes, you may forget that. You may not realize how close you are to success.
You may have been hiking somewhere and read a sign that predicted it would take you two hours to complete a particular trail. If you have never hiked it before, you may require a different amount of time. Part of you may say to give up before you start. Who is to say you may not finish quicker than other people? The key is you take the time you need. Learning to overcome mental obstacles is harder than any steep trail before you.
Whenever you sense the going gets tough, then this is when you are invited to tap into your inner strength and determination. It is when part of you desires to give up that you are almost there. This is when patience and belief in yourself will get you that extra distance. Never underestimate the invisible power of faith. It may only be a few more minutes, hours, days, weeks, months or years, but you are much closer than you think.
Think back to a time where you were not well. Healing is a process that unfolds in ways you are unaware. People around you will assume they know how long it will take you to recouperate. In fact, they may even share a discouraging prognosis.
Nonethless, you can find many inspiring stories about people who believe in their own healing power. This stimulates or manifests miracles. Regardless of your health situation, you can choose to view it as a temporary setback. You always have a choice about how to react to your circumstances. You are closer than you think to your unspoken goal.
