Everyone of us has a story tell whether its about happiness,sadness, weaknesses, strengths or life struggles. Each day we wake up and think of the possibilities that we can get and learn through it.Open doors of opportunities are endless but the question remained “how willing are you to take risk and embrace change?” This is one thing that always struck me the most. Just like anybody else, I get excited every time i have a chance to work on things for my life and yet, a few hours, days or months passed, I begin to default either into laziness or complacency. In between those experiences i struggled a lot and I wonder to myself one particular question.. “why is it so hard to achieve something that you desired to happen?”, “why can’t I have a kind of life that most rich people would have instantly?”... I was reminded and like what I have mentioned, we all have our own story to tell. If this one certain person struggles in the beginning and gets the same reaction as I did in the middle of a life race, then finds himself successful because he has never given up. If he can “do it!”.. then no one can stop me from getting what I want to happen in my life. 

Frustration is one factor that makes you give up. Trust me, I have been through a lot of frustrations and it does fail you. All the time. It only leads to self destruction. It pulls you down to the very point that you will find it hard to get up again. Trust me, it ain’t easy. Nothing is easy. But, as what most people would say, “You Are On The Verge of A Breakthrough, Don’t Give Up” .. I did stand up and started to walk again. I was too limped, it was painful but I have to do it. It’s not like I don’t have any choice but because “I HAVE TO DO IT!” The key is, I DO NOT HAVE ANYONE ELSE BUT MYSELF. There is nothing in life that I find it easy. I always take the difficult path because I have learned that going to a narrow road would result to something for the Greater Good! Those are the kind of choices that i make. 

As i begin to walk, i took the steps on my own. One step a time and along the road, you will meet people to give inspiration and even motivate you. But, they don’t last long. All you will need to do is to keep on moving. I kept my pace and often, I have moments in my life where I begin to wear off again. This time, I am a different person. I make my weaknesses as my source of  strength. I must go on thriving and I will keep thriving even if life is too difficult. I cried so many times on my knees and screamed at the top of my lungs..WHY IS IT SO HARD? I remind myself to keep punching, its not yet time to look back otherwise you will fall again. Pick up.. pick up..pick up!

One time, I had a deep conversation with a friend and told me that she is in desperation and she’s tired with life. She had a stable job but wasn’t sure about it. But, I remembered her telling me that she’s passionate in baking and cooking. Its what she wanted yet she finds it unsatisfying. She wants to give up... I looked through myself to what she uttered and I said silently “you have a goal and you can’t give up..there’s no time to give up” She was determined to stop what she’s passionate and eventually gave up. The clock is ticking limitless. Living your day like there’s no tomorrow is never easy. Who says its easy? Even the rich people are struggling. No ONE is exempted. 

Indeed, at the end of the day, you have yourself to evaluate. What are the things that you have been compromising for the benefit to succeed? How willing are you to accept change? Are you focused enough to keep an eye at the price? To round things up, I will leave you with six words to ponder. SACRIFICE, DISCIPLINE, WILLINGNESS, DESIRE, DETERMINATION AND DEDICATION.
