When we are little we have this notion, a mindset rather, that absolutely nothing is out of reach.
When you're little, you're told you can be whoever you want to be when you grow up. You are told that you can accomplish absolutely anything you set your mind to. You are told that you can and will change the world. Somewhere down the line, we lost this mindset.
However, the truth is that your voice matters and you can use it to change the world around you for the better.
Dig down deep and think of those dreams you have. Got em'? Sweet, now dust them off and try to achieve them. Here are words to encourage you in the process.
1. You have to actually believe that you can achieve your goals.
First of all, you need to hear this! Sometimes we need that reminder that we got when we were little. So don't just say you are going to try to accomplish something, get up and start working towards it.
2. There is no harm in at least trying it out.
It really is worth a shot. You could have nothing to lose.
3. This process can make you grow.
If this is a challenge you have been shoving under the rug, the journey could make something so beautiful out of you. Hold onto the hope that the journey is well worth it.
4. There are people out there who will support you.
Sometimes we fear starting something out because we are worried about what those around us will think. Take a moment right now to recognize that if you are looking to accomplish something new, there are people out there who love you and will support you in reaching your goals.
5. You can use this as an opportunity to inspire others.
You never know what overcoming fear could do for those around you.
6. Each trial is going to make you that much stronger.
Trials could be mentally, physically, and emotionally draining. However, as you go through each one, they are not without a purpose.
7. Taking one step could lead to a marathon.
Sometimes all that this accomplishment requires is one small step out of your comfort zone.
8. Your life is not dependent upon your past.
No matter where you have come from, you are never too broken to move forward.
9. These goals and desires were placed on your heart for a reason.
I firmly believe that you are exactly where you are right now for a reason. If there is something you have always felt the need to accomplished but haven't yet, take that step.
10. You were created for a unique purpose.
Sometimes we forget that we are truly valuable. Your life is worth something regardless of what you accomplish today or within the next ten years. Take a second and recognize that your life has a purpose.
