Your 20s not going as planned? Perfect. You’re in great company. “Failing” in your twenties is a historical rite of a passage. Like crashing into a table or being sent out into the wilderness to kill a lion — naked, blindfolded, and wielding a dull stick.
This post is for any person who is believing or hoping for something. You attract what you believe. And this post is to remind you to not lose your belief or faith, but to keep holding onto the notion that anything is possible.
Forget everything that you’ve heard about reaching your goal. Forget everything you’ve heard about success. Why? Because maybe we’ve been focusing on the wrong thing. I’ve learned, it’s not always about the destination.
The ideas that we have around failure are pretty false. As a society, we usually believe people fail whenever they don’t achieve a dream or whenever their dream doesn’t come into fruition when they say it will. But that’s not true.
Why work against those who have the same passions as we do when we can work together? In a world as crazy as the one we live in, we should feel relieved when we meet someone who shares our interests, not threatened.
The thing is, we all want to be successful. But many of us don’t want to go through the process of getting to it. Shortcuts are a waste of time. Like the old saying goes, there are no shortcuts to any place worth going.
The reality is, when we get out of our lame thinking, we can become awakened in knowing that all of us are capable of doing everything we dream. All of us have the ability to achieve more than we have ever thought possible.
