Doing our very best feels much better emotionally than giving in and saying “our best days are behind us”.
Doing our best means at times we will struggle, doubt will enter our minds regularly and it will feel messy very often.
We will be tired, fatigued, stiff at times, wiped out even at times, but this is all the process of getting BETTER.
We will look back on all of these feelings sometimes with laughter, much funnier now than what they were like going through in the first place, but we know that anything worth achieving is going to be hard, it’s going to be demanding and will test us to the limit, but most of all will be WORTH IT!!!
Compare that to wanting an “easy life” of not putting any effort in, idling days away, and living on so called “past glories” that may not have been so great in the first place and certainly aren’t strong enough to make you feel good now.
When you look back in life, you are giving up on the now and the future, and the decline can quick and devastating. Life is not exciting anymore, no more challenges exist and you have “given in to please others” because they haven’t got the guts to have a go in life anymore either.
Our best days are indeed here now and fresh pages of a great future are here to be written in the now and will be written by your actions every day, your optimism every day, your courage you are willing to show every day and it requires independence of thought, not listening to the people who pull you down and put you off, and surrounding yourself with people who encourage you, put hope in your life every day and elevate your life through daily support even when you keep doubting yourself.
