“Perseverance is failing 19 times and succeeding the 20th.”
~Julie Andrews
It collapsed the dream project you have been working on. The publisher scraped your book from the market because it didn’t sell. The business is going into losses for months.
And now everything is different. You want to run away and forget any of it ever happened. You have no reason to go to bed or zeal to wake up in the morning. Like a nightmare, the problems and memories hover around you. It is heavy, your head with stress and anxiety.
The more you try to come out of it, the more it shallows you inside. There seems to be no way out. And there isn’t one. Until you are willing to make one.
You are supposed to feel crushed and hurt. And it is alright if you are lost and confused. Take it as a cue of how much you loved doing it, how much you invested yourself into it, and how passionate you are about it.
Do not let this fall fail you. You know in your heart that you still love it. Let that love lift, heal and guide you.
You can never give it up if you love. So, shake off the negativity that surrounds you and bounce back with full strength.
Make it count- this fall. Preserve and rise higher than the last time. Often, failure teaches more than success.
This phase of fighting the odds is dark and difficult but powerful and important. You lose, trip, and fall into depression. You lose your sense of life, purpose, and existence. And that is precisely where the transition begins. Your passion will call you when everything else has left you. And the moment you start walking towards it, you will feel the weight of the steps and the magic that flows through you.
You will find a newfound optimism for life. It will take you back to the days when you started doing it and remind you of the reasons why you began in the first place. And then, there is no turning back, however.
Stay with
Prerna 🙂
