A Way Out; Do Not Lose Hope

It does not matter how bad or rough the situation may look or how difficult things may be, the truth is that there will definitely have a way out of it, so all hope should not be lost. In the journey to your dreamland, you will inevitably meet challenges and oppositions, but these should not make you to lose sight of where you are going to nor to lose hope of getting there, they should propel you towards putting in your best, knowing that your are making advancements. It is true that you may feel like to turn back from where you are going to and quit, but the thought of arriving at your destination should supercede the thoughts of quitting.

One thing you have to understand about life is that you are the one to determine when there is hope or not. If you conclude your situation as hopeful, even in the midst of overwhelming difficulty, you will still see a way out. But if you see it as a hopeless situation, it may become so for you. What you conclude in the face of challenges will definitely determine what will become of you. Some of the challenges that people face are only pathways to their breakthrough. Of course, there is no way you can earn a quality university degree without facing series of exams. If at any point and you get uninterested in sitting for the exams again, then you may never get the prize.

What I normally tell people when they complain about how tough and difficult their life's journey has become is to "keep moving." This might just be the necessary price that you will need to pay in order to pave the way for the desired prize to be earned. The time you come to terms with the fact that you will have oppositions and challenges when you are approaching your desired goal, the better it will be for you, and the easier it will be to make up your mind not to crack under pressure. In fact, for each problem that comes to you, there must definitely be a way out, but that is if you will not quit at the sight of the problem.

No matter what you are going through, as long as you have not lost hope in the future and in things getting better, then you have not lost all. When the night season comes, you will not be bothered because you know that the day will definitely break. In the same way, if things begin to go in manners that is not desired, you do not have to lose hope because there will be a way out. In the midst of gross darkness, your optimism should be a beacon of hope for you to keep going. When the road gets tough, it means you should toughen up and keep moving. You only fail if you have lost hope in trying.

In other to maintain hope, you need to have the spirit of resilience. If you have seen a tree grow through obstacles, you will understand what resilience means. Where we lived before, there was this tree that started growing through very intense obstacles. In fact, how it was twisting and tilting to evade the obstacles was adorable. For some months, I came to watch the tree grow and it was a sight to behold. It was a practical example of being resilient. If you apply this to other life's situations, you will understand that the journey to your dreams may not be easy but if you will keep at it, then you will surely arrive. It is worthy to note that the price of success may be very painful but the prize of success will always be sweet and adorable.

Over time, I have come to understand that when things happen, no matter how unpleasant it may appear, there are usually two sides to the occurrence - the positive and negative. It is, however, the side that you choose to see from what has happened that will determine what you take out of life. The same scenario may present to two people in the same way, but their responses to it may vary and ultimately, their results will be dissimilar. Always remember that life may not be as fair as you need it to be, but you should not quit because your breakthrough might just be closer than you think.
