There are unlimited possibilities in life. We can do anything we want, go anywhere we desire and accomplish endless goals. We are strong and capable, and with focus and determination, there are few things we can’t do. If we don’t have the skills we need, we can get them. If we need more information, we can find it. There isn’t anything too hard or too far away for us to reach. But life is complicated and there may be times when our confidence suffers, and we feel anxious and unsure. The cause for our unsettled feelings may be obvious or obscure. Maybe we’ve moved to a new location and feel lost because we haven’t figured out where everything is yet. Or our lives have taken an unexpected turn that has brought difficulty and stress. If we know what’s causing the discomfort, we may be able to address the issue and find some resolution. However, the reasons for our distress may be hard to pinpoint. When we feel uncertain and unsure, we may be convinced that doing some things is impossible. They are too hard to process, too complex to manage, and just more than we can face. We can’t be confident and unsure at the same time, and whichever emotion is strongest at any given moment, will prevail. How can we find our confidence again? Although we may feel invisible and unsure, our courage is still there within us. It may be lying dormant because of a stressful situation, but it is ready to rise and assist us at any moment. We need only trust ourselves, believe we can succeed, and reach deep to pull it forward. No matter what’s happened or where we are, our determination has not left us. We are still here, and nothing can hold us down indefinitely. We can stand strong, and look forward convinced we will prevail.
If we’re intimidated by a situation, instead of processing and managing it, we may think about running in the opposite direction and letting someone else handle it. Running away has its benefits – we don’t have to face the challenge, and we can hide. But there is no return on investment from abandoning the ship. We will gain nothing to carry forward with us. We are wise enough to figure out any problem or complication that comes, and strong enough to endure to the end and find resolution. By trusting ourselves, we will overcome any obstacle and reach success.
The first step into unknown territory is often the hardest. We don’t know what to expect, and may fear what could happen. But the first step leads to the next, and if we continue we may find nothing was as difficult as we anticipated. We are highly capable and can manage anything we must. There will always be a way forward, and with patience and focus, we’ll find it.
Today if the situation around you is difficult and you are unsure how to proceed, trust yourself. You have already overcome many hard challenges and there isn’t anything you can’t manage. You are amazing and powerful, and will find every answer. The whole world is there for you, and your dreams are waiting. Step forward with strength and confidence, and you will make them yours.
