Journey of Life

I have experienced both the sweet taste of victory and the bitterness of the defeat during my life. But it really doesn’t matter whether you win or lose – the journey is the most important thing.

People think that winning is everything but it really is just a small step in your journey of life. You learn from winning but you learn even more from your losses. If you win every time you propably won’t get any better, after a loss you will definitely want to get better – or you should want to! Turning your losses into positive energy will help you to strive even further whatever your goal is.

Don’t take your losses as negative things but as small steps that help you in your journey. Remember that nobody is perfect. Everyone fails from time to time. Just promise yourself: “I will learn. I will keep on moving forward. I will keep on getting better!” Everyone of us has an amazing potential as long as we are willing to use it.

“You can focus on the “obvious” limitations you THINK you have, or you can focus on the unlimited potential that you ACTUALLY have. But know this… Whatever you choose, you will prove yourself to be right.”*

So choose one and you can become better – I would suggest you choose the latter one. Be happy in whatever you do, do it with grace and the results will follow. When you think about your life as a journey you can enjoy both the winnings and the losses.

From time to time it is good to ask yourself what do you want to be in five years?

If you answered “happy” you are on the right track – you are already a winner!

Be good to yourself, be true to yourself and keep on moving forward.
