Several years ago, I was really temperamental and did not
have much patience for people who in my opinion, lacked common sense and I had
a strong dislike for lazy people. I was
that person in the office that picked up everyone’s slack and resented them for
it. I have evolved and matured since then and now I have more patience. I’ve
stepped into my role as a mentor and teacher in the work place, because it is
who I am naturally on a soul level, I just had to stop fighting it. Instead of picking up slack now, I try to
guide my team to do the work instead of doing it for them. This did not come
easily overnight. It took me a long time
to mature as a person and along this journey I want to share with you some of the key things I learned along the way.
You are born with a special talent and skill. It does not come naturally, you must learn to
nurture and allow it the room to grow and mature. You have to train your mind,
body and spirit for it. The challenges you experience will do just that. It
will help you evolve as a person and leading you to become the best version of yourself.
The trick is not quitting when it gets
rough.
My 5 tips for Persistence and Success
1.
Reality Check:
Sometimes we get so caught up in the drama and struggles that we forget
to sit down and just breath. It is so easy to get drained and forget that our
happiness is number one. We let others steal our power with out even realizing
it. You have the power to control your own emotions and control how you choose
to respond.
2.
Isolate and Target: What are your triggers? This
10 of swords is a card that shows real struggles. There are real challenges
that are to be overcome. How can you
address a problem if you have no idea what it is? Is it a specific person, a task,
or a lack of? Find out what is draining
your cup right now and make sure it does not take up all your time. The goal is
reduce your stress so you can use your energy towards more meaningful things. I’m
not saying avoid the issue- I’m saying give it less attention.
3.
Support team: You have to have support! Yes you can
do it alone, but its going to be so much harder on you then it needs to be. WHY
DO THAT TO YOURSELF. Create a network of people who make you feel good. Be
around friends who motivate you. Watch things that make you happy. Listen to
music that is uplifting and most importantly, have support so when you feel
like your crashing, they will help you rest.
4.
Prayer. You don’t have to be religious to do
pray. Pray, Pray, Pray and when you feel like you have nothing left, Pray some
more. Pray is a wonderful way for you to set aside your ego and allow your
spirit, to communicate with the universal spirit to help you through this time.
I grew up in a strict Catholic home and I
didn’t have the best experience so I use to be anti-prayer. But… One day, I
gave it a second try but this time, I did it how my spiritual team taught me to
do it and I have never been against it
since then. Prayer works my friends. But you must believe in its power.
5.
Don’t give up. EVER. If your truly on the
correct path and doing what you are suppose to, you will always feel this
gentle nudge to keep going. During times where you are being tested to the max,
you fill this gentle nudge to keep going. When you are off course you will
know. Doors will close, things will not unfold as they should and you’ll just
feel like something isn’t right. Trust your gut.
