My views..

After a fair share of problems in my life, all that I've learned from them and the experience I have gained has led me into seeing things in a different way. I now approach everything with a different mindset.

This is what I think...

Even those around us that portray to be so very content with life, really aren't at all times, something is always wrong, whether its a small problem or a big one.

When we are upset, or when something is bothering us, it's because we LET it bother us. Ever heard "Pain is only what you make of it"? It's not just a nice sounding quote, its true.

A problem exists when we create restrictions. Nothing is really impossible, okay, maybe defying gravity or trying to prove the laws of physics wrong might be in a way. But realistic problems, money issues, family troubles, emotional instability... these things all have a solution if we are only able to step out of our confined mindset and look outside the box.

We are always ready to dream, plan a great future, plan a change in ourselves, but when it comes to acting on it..we give up. We create our own obstacles and excuses when something looks like it will take time to do. We give ourselves reasons to not do it just so that we later have an excuse.

For example; a goal you set that needs money to achieve requires you to firstly make another goal on how to generate that money, in the process of doing that you will face more problems. When those problems arise, you soon forget the initial goal and focus solely on those problems. When you do that you unknowingly make yourself believe that the goal you were trying to achieve is impossible. When its not, what went wrong was you, you made it impossible because you didn't have patience and determination to accept all hindrences and believe that you are strong enough to overcome them. What you have to start doing is look at the end result, what comes AFTER all the hardship. When you see that as something worth it and if its important enough to make you happy, you naturally overlook the negativity of the situation at that time and keep moving forward.

All in all, if something is bothering you, making you lose a good nights sleep, distracting you from doing other things, you have to realize that you have 2 options in everything. Either you criticize your situation and bear hatred in your heart that keeps growing (which by the way is essentially destroying you, your own state of mind and potential to be happy). Or you start making or finding ways to overcome this period in your life with success. The sooner you start working towards finding happiness, the sooner you will forget your sadness.

Here's an email I once wrote to a friend of mine:

"Aerodynamically the bumblebee shouldn't be able to fly, but the bumblebee doesn't know that so it goes on flying anyway."

Success or failure in something is merely your perception of it. So long as you think something is possible, you will try to achieve it by all means necessary and most likely will succeed in doing so. The instance you convince yourself that any effort won't change the outcome is when you give up, which is failure. No goal is impossible, it all comes down to you, your impossible and you make FAITH impossible. Impossibility is simply your lack of effort, nothing more.

Ultimately...the situation will not change, as a matter of fact it hasn't changed..... you have, and you alone will continue to change..yourself and your destiny. Success is because of you, failure is because of you, no other being or element affects your life but you. The bottom line is your desire for succeeding, that itself is instilled in your heart by no other than; y o u.
So undeniably.... the result is what you make it.
