Ever feel like giving up? Do you ever feel so discouraged that even one more day of frustration will be too much to handle?Everyone gets discouraged at times however there are a number of key differences between people who keep on going and those who give up:
1 Focus On Your Goal Not On Your Problems
One of my mentors is a highly successful property developer and he loves solving problems. All day long he can take on one problem after
next and just keep going.
How does he do this when most people would feel overwhelmed?
He understands
importance of focus. He never loses sight of his goals and his goals so excite him that problems are nothing more than stepping stones to
achievement of his outcomes.
If you are feeling discouraged it is very likely because your focus is on what has not worked; your setbacks and your fears.
Discipline your mind to focus on your goals and discouragement will fade into
distance.
Expect to learn by trying new things and to find out what works by making mistakes. Then keep adjusting your approach until you get
results you want.
I went from being shy with people to developing confidence and charm by trying new approaches day after day until I found what worked for me.
It is only because I knew what my goal was that I was able to deal with
frustrations and discouragement along
way.
2 Ask For Help
You do not have to deal with everything alone. Ask for help from someone who is qualified to help you and act on their good advice.
Two minds are better than one especially when your mind is full of discouragement.
And, you will feel stronger knowing that someone else is backing you, keen to see you succeed.
When you think about it.
The only thing stopping your from getting from where you are to where you want to be is -- learning! Learning an effective approach.
