We all have those times when everything seems to be just too much. You feel stuck in a rut, for every one step forward you slip two steps back, and the light at the end of the tunnel gets a bit blurred. Nothing appears to be going right!
Reading inspirational books, that is if you can even pick one up, makes things worst.
You see other people in your company get promotions ahead of you even when you are the one with the dreams! You struggle to balance the household budget but end up getting even further into debt.
I started on this journey to success and everyone else seems to be doing better than me! Why is life so cruel? Give me a break!
Why are you feeling so sorry for yourself? What did you expect—that it would be easy?
The fact is that when you started to reach out for your dreams, you stepped out of your comfort zone. You started to break down the“tribal bonds”that held you within the majority.
There is an awful lot to learn if you desire to realize your true potential and life has a way in which it teaches those that are willing to acquire that wisdom.
OK, there are ways to short-circuit the system and there are always escape routes if you really want one. But the object of the game is to succeed.
What you have to decide is if you really want the goal you have set for yourself? Are you prepared to do whatever it takes to achieve that goal? And are you being totally honest with yourself?
It does not matter whether your goal is to open a small comer grocery store or to be the president of the World Bank. The same principles of long-term commitment apply.
For many of us, the transition between where we are and where we want to go may require the unlearning of loads of thought patterns and habits, and the learning of completely new methods of application. This can be extremely uncomfortable and despairing at times.
Experiences are usually the way that life knocks this“wisdom”into our heads. So don't be dismayed when things are a bit rough—after all—you asked for it!
So, when you feel like a“slug in a puddle”...
1.Be very clear in your objectives.
2.Know that you have the ability to achieve your objectives.
3.Realize that your dominating thoughts will affect your actions.
4.Demand of yourself the discipline of action.
5.Think, visualize, fantasize and dream.
6.Let go of the result.
7.Help others.
8.Allow changes.
9.Just do it!
当事情繁冗复杂时，我们都会有难以应对的感觉。你觉得生活了无生趣，因为每个人都向前迈出一步，而你却倒退两步，隧道尽头的灯光似乎变得模糊不清，一切显得反常！
如果你随随便便地拿起一本鼓舞人心的书来读，会使事情变得更糟。
眼看其他同事们一个个得到提拔，尽管，这也一直是你的梦想，却始终没有机会！你精打细算地平衡生活预算，可最后，还是远不够还贷！
我开始踏上这条通向成功的路，但其他人都比我做得好！为什么生活要这样残酷？让我休息一下吧！
为什么你会有如此悲哀的感觉呢？你期望什么？那容易实现吗？
实际上，当你开始为梦想付诸行动时，你已迈出了自己的“安乐国”，开始打破关住了你以及大多数人的“部落监禁”。
如果你想知道自己的真实潜能，那么有一条可怕的命运准则：生活会有一种方法，教育那些渴望获得这种智慧的人。
不过，我们有解决这个问题的方法，如果你确实需要，这里还有帮助你逃脱这个准则的方法。不过，游戏的目标是成功。
如果你真的想实现自己的既定目标，那么你的决定是什么？你准备好为实现目标不惜一切代价了吗？你对自己是否完全真诚？
无论你的目标是开一间拐角小杂货店，还是要当世界银行的主席，都并不重要。长期责任都适用相同的原则。
对我们很多人来讲，从我在哪里到我想去哪里的过渡，需要卸下固定的思维模式和习惯的重荷，学习一种全新的适用方法。有时，这是令人极不舒服和绝望的。
通常，经验是生活赐予我们智慧的形式。所以，当事情较为曲折时，不要沮丧！毕竟，这是你要求的。
所以，当你感觉精神处于低谷时：
1.一定要明确自己的目标。
2.坚信自己有能力实现目标。
3.明白主导思想影响行动的道理。
4.行动中严于律己。
5.富有想象力。
6.接受结果。
7.乐于助人。
8.允许一些意料之外的变动。
9.马上行动！
