You keep getting up each day, putting your best foot forward even on days that are not your best, thinking of the next right move to take, doing all you can and all you know how to do, sometimes you might even get up on some days and end up not doing anything really tangible probably because you are carried away with your thoughts on how you can change your life overnight.
Most times we really wish we can do nothing and just have all we want.
To be honest I also desire an easy, smooth and sweet life. Not having to think too much, just eating and watching my favorite kdramas.
This might be your feelings but please can you pay attention to this also. Pay attention to yourself because I keep seeing a lot happening and I feel this strong urge to share this.
I know you are just trying to look for a way out of this whole mess. A way out of being able to just put food on the table. A way out to just helping out the family. A way out to be seen as somebody and probably to be like every other person that seems to be doing so well out there (people who seem like role models and mentors to you especially if they are now your mate or someone younger than you).
I tell it's possible to have all of these emotions inside of you, you are not weird for having them especially when reality seems to be hitting so hard that you just got to have sense and do something.
Emphasis on Do Something.
Some people say they are not the business type or they are the shy type that's why they don't involve themselves in anything that has to do with advertising their business or trying to engage in anything and sometimes you might even feel tempted by this but there again the reality of life, circumstances make you just want to do anything. You might have even whispered or said out loud to those sets of people that it's because life hasn't hit them.
Why am I taking my time to spell out these feelings because I know they are real and valid. Truly, when faced with circumstances, especially harddddd times you can be tempted to just do anything. Exactly why I have to share this.
If at all you fall into any of these categories in one way or another, you should pay attention now to what I'm about to write;
• Stop jumping at everything that comes at your face, let me explain better: At this moment of vulnerability, you can be tempted to just sign up for courses because they seem to relate to you or offer the solution you think you need. You know because I've been seeing a lot of programs/classes/training and the likes, like so many of them which I don't have any dispute against but you would keep attending all of it without any change to your life if you keep jumping at them because you are like " what I just need is money, after attending this training I would just start making money with It ehnnnn, omo e make sense" you then apply for it and another comes up and you do the same because it seems like the way out. I'm sorry if my words don't sit right with you. Scrap that! I'm glad they don't sit well with you because it's got to shake something up in you.
I used to be like this as well, attending training and programs but not channeling them down to anything. After I got enlightened, I would rather miss out on the so-called juicy offer than turn my life into a dumpsite, where everything goes which shouldn't be.
The real way out of anything you feel the need to get out of lies with You!
Learn to sit down with yourself, I mean sit down and have honest conversations.
At least this year, 2022, take this decision of having a clear moment with yourself and not to keep jumping at offers without really making good use of any of them.
Ask yourself,
Do I really really need this?
For what?
Why do I need this?
Which of my goals is it bringing me closer to?
Even if I do want to switch goals, is it more promising than the other?
Emphasis on More promising than another.
Many of you already have something you started but because you've gotten so carried away with someone's life and result, you forget to pay attention to what you have and think of how you can make it better or make better use of it.
Let me give an example,
I write thank you notes and sell. Like for real now, this is what I do.
Yes, this is what I do but because it doesn't seem like something that's really talked about all over social media and I see someone seeming to have this flamboyant life that seems well put together with just influencing as work and I assume it just like that "ewwwwee, me too I fine na, e mi beautiful girl, spec lomo, me too I would start uploading my pictures and I would have fans/followers and I would start earning through influencing, simple". Not too long after that, such influencer now releases a course on influencing then I do my best to apply for the course but after trying my best to follow the instructions from the course I still don't seem to be earning enough or even nothing sef.
Just because they wrap a course for you doesn't mean that's not all there is to the work or business.
Oh! They didn't tell you about their years of not earning anything or the days they kept pushing themselves even though they could have given up. There is no easy business anywhere. When they say life is not bread and butter, you think it's because people don't like bread and butter maybe me sha. After all, I don't like it, that's by the way.
Just imagine, what do you expect when your goal isn't really influencing but to make money. When I should have invested that money in my thank you note writing business, promoting my business the best way possible, getting courses in line with my business, and keep being patient for a better outcome each time.
The only reason I can suggest you quit a business can be because you found a better option probably because of your present resources, that's fine! But you didn't put any effort at all and you are now jumping from one place to another. I'm sorry you would keep going in circles with nothing much to show for it.
Sit down with yourself and get things straight. What do you need to focus on to improve your state of living?
Am I saying training is bad, NO!
Am I saying those who promote juicy offers are wasting your time? NO!
They are smart people investing in what they have.
What I'm saying is, enough of you seeing everything as something you should jump at. Scrutinize things well and check if it's in line with your goals. I'm not even just talking about paid training, some of you just join free training with no aim at all! For what? To stress the host/convener or to give them false thoughts? Please stop this nonsense and give yourself the real sense you need to get out of this situation.
One good thing I've learned for myself, nobody can help you get off your situation. They can only assist even if they did help you get out, it might not last because you are yet to deal with yourself.
I sincerely hope this meets you, well.
I pray that this doesn't become the regular post that you read, give the deep sighs i.e hmmmmmmm, and do nothing / take no action. I pray even this aids in the deliverance you are praying for, Amen.
Yours truly,
Faith.
