DON’T MAKE PROMISES YOU CAN’T KEEP

There are times you genuinely intend on doing something and you promise to do so. You do your best, but you find that you can’t do what you first set out to do. There may be many reasons, but you still feel you have let someone down as you are not holding up your end of the bargain.

Perhaps before we promise to do something, we ensure we can do what we promise, whether that is mentally, physically or financially. It is better to say nothing and do our due diligence and then offer, if you can follow through.

If you can help, great! If you can’t help now, wait until you can. Don’t make promises you can’t keep.

It is difficult to hold back, especially if you really do want to assist someone who needs your help, but you must be able to deliver when the time comes. Do not get their hopes up if you are unsure if you can follow through. Offer a helping hand once you once your know you can help, no matter what that helping hand may look like.

There will be instances when your assistance is not supposed to happen in the larger scheme of things. Perhaps those you want to help must learn an important lesson, and you are not supposed to interfere. That may be why you cannot see your way clear to help. Who knows what the deeper meaning behind the experience may hold.

Everything in life happens for a reason. If you can help, great! If you can’t help now, wait until you can. Don’t make promises you can’t keep.

DO NOT BE DISMAYED

At times, we can feel alone, disenchanted, unloved and we feel abandoned. This can be especially true around the holidays or when we are comparing ourselves to others. We can become distressed, unorganized, worried, and anxious about where life is taking us or not taking us. We wish for a glimmering hope of better days ahead.

We wonder if things will ever shift, and this is when most of us decide to find our way out. The first step would be to face these issues head on. Dive deep! Where do these issues stem from and what are they teaching us?

Push yourself to take the first step.

There is always valuable information and growth on the other side of life’s lessons. Do not be dismayed. You can and will make your way through. Dig in and take charge!

Challenges can feel like we made a wrong turn but there are no wrong turns in life. While in the midst of a challenge, especially one that we are trying to hide from, this concept may be difficult to understand let alone accept. But running away from issues is not the easy way. More often than not, the issue keeps resurfacing. It will persist until we have learned the lesson at hand.

If we dig in and are determined, we gain strength, self-confidence, valuable insight and knowledge from the experience. All things pass, and if we persevere and push ourselves, the lessons are learned and our reality (or maybe our perspective) shifts.

Stand your ground as you are stronger than you think. You will reap the rewards from your challenges even during those times it feels as though it is just one thing after another. Sometimes life goes this way when you want it to go that way but life continually shifts. There is always valuable information and growth on the other side of life’s lessons.

Do not be dismayed. You can and will make your way through. Dig in and take charge!
