You Think You're Not Gonna Make It? Think Again
Are you facing a challenge that feels beyond your capacity? One that seems too overwhelming to handle? Well, I have good news for you—because you might be underestimating yourself.
As humans, we tend to forget. We forget the challenges we've already conquered—the ones that seemed impossible at the time, the ones that felt insurmountable. Yet, here we are. We survived. We overcame.
The best way I know to face today’s obstacles is to reflect on your past victories. Think back to those moments when you felt like you couldn’t keep going, but you did. Remember how those challenges, which once seemed so difficult, now feel trivial in hindsight.
That’s why I always say: "Achievements have your back." When you have a track record of past successes, they boost your confidence and remind you that, no matter what comes your way, you’re strong enough to overcome it.
Also, keep in mind that emotions are temporary. Right now, you might feel overwhelmed, stressed, or even defeated—but these feelings won’t last. Soon, they’ll fade, and what will remain is the experience you gained, the lessons you learned, and the achievement that will stand as proof that you can.
There’s a quote I love: “The greatest challenges in life are often the ones that teach us the most.” As cliché as it sounds, I couldn’t agree more. In fact, if I had to choose, I’d still take on the challenges I’ve faced because they’ve shaped me into the person I am today.
Challenges aren’t meant to break you. They’re meant to teach you and test your resilience. So, reflect on your past victories, remind yourself that negative emotions are temporary, and trust that this, too, shall pass.
I hope this message finds you at the right time, and I hope it brings you some encouragement. Blessings!
