If there is one thing in life for certain, it is that if we want to achieve our dreams or goals, we must go out and find them and never give up.
If we do not go out looking for opportunities, they will pass, sometimes even before our eyes, sometimes miles away, certainly they are not there waiting for us..
Often, we complain that we don't have the life we ​​thought we did, we don't do the job we wanted, or didn't the opportunity we hoped for, but did we really work together to make what we wanted to happen?
It is not a question of dedicating an evening or a day to dreams, but of investing time, strength, desire, perseverance and commitment in it..
Quick fixes for such issues usually don't work, you need to mix some ingredients, such as attitudes and attitudes, with the right condiments, such as perseverance and passion for what we do, along with some secret and improvised ingredients, such as search for alternatives and tolerance to frustration.
An opportunity, most of the time, is created and built. Or rather, we create and build it. We just need to be clear about what we want from life and go in that direction.
Set a goal, concrete and simple. If it's a generic goal, identify the specific goals that will get you there, always in a positive way. You have to be aware that it is a process.
As in all processes, you will have to take risks. For sure you can think of some past experience to find support, even if it was a very small goal, or think of someone who is an example for you..
Keep in mind that every risk involves the responsibility of taking responsibility for your own decisions and, above all, for the feelings you feel along the way. Stop blaming others or circumstances and have the courage to take the reins of your life.
You will encounter obstacles and fears, unexpected events and disappointments, moments in which you prefer to throw in the towel, but it is all part of the process, it is a succession of moments or phases in which your mood is determined..
There is a phrase uttered by the protagonist of Into the Wild - Into the Wilds that emphasizes that in life it is not so important to be strong, but to feel strong.
If you want something in life, reach out and take it!
Even if you sometimes think that you have used all the resources or skills you have available or even that you have chosen the correct alternative, it is possible to get confused.. You will happen to feel confused along the way ...
Every crisis, every moment of confusion or every fall is an opportunity to get up, to rise again.
Do not be afraid, you will have the opportunity to remedy and learn from your mistakes, this is what will give you the experience to get to have what you want and to be the person you want..
Because, when we go in the direction of a dream or towards a goal, the path is external, but also internal. It gives us the opportunity to know ourselves and to go deeper into our essence. It's wonderful.
Consequently, when you want something, look for it, open all possibilities and build all the doors you need to keep moving forward..
You choose the materials, shape, color and size of the lock and then find the key that will allow you to access what you want through your door. Ultimately, you choose the attitude towards the construction of the door and how to go through it. Be steadfast, persistent and strive.
As Machado used to say, “Wayfarer, there is no path, the way is made by going“.
