Feb 24, 2017

“Your circumstances don’t determine your outcome.”

Life is a beautiful thing. However, events, problems, and circumstances beyond our control can make living life difficult. Maybe you’ve had failed relationships, unexpected illnesses, abandonment issues, and a myriad of chaotic events that can lead to questioning your existence.
However, there are some resilient people who have overcame the odds and became super achievers. And there’s no reason why you can’t be a super achiever too!
Whatever you are going through, just remember that you are not alone. There are people that are in your corner and will support you. You must remember that your story is part of the journey. It may seem painful now, but through your adversities, there will always be triumph. Not only that, by sharing your story you will be showing people what’s possible. By sharing your story, you will help others become inspired, empowered, and motivated.

So, how do you become a super achiever?

Acceptance- The first step to achieving your goals is accepting where you are at this very moment. Yes, it may be difficult to accept where you are right now—and sometimes the pain may be too unbearable. However, the first step to healing is acceptance. You may not be able to change what has happened to you, but you can change your thinking about the situation. Once you accept where you are, the healing process can begin.
Pursue happiness – For many, pursuing their happiness can mean following their passion. For others, it can be going on mission trips to developing countries, or simply finding the joy in the little things. Whatever you do, you must commit to being happy. Of course, there may be issues that arise but if you don’t let those issues take over your entire life you will be fine. Seek things that make you happy, joyful, and fulfilled.

Manage your emotions—If you let them, your emotions can lead you to make irrational decisions. That’s why there’s a saying “never make a decision based on your emotions”. If you do, you may regret it. Super achievers don’t let their emotions take over their life. The first step to managing your emotions is acknowledging them. Once you acknowledge your emotions, you can take the proper steps to manage them. You can meditate, journal, talk to a trusted friend or therapist. When you manage your emotions, you can make more informed decisions.

 

Support—If you look at all the super achievers in life, you will notice one thing they have in common; They all have people in their corner cheering them on. Whether it’s a coach, mentor, therapist or friend, it’s imperative that you have someone who believes and you. When you have someone in your corner, you will be able to continue sharing your journey, even on the days you don’t feel like it.

The truth is, you can be anything you put your mind to. Your circumstances don’t define who you are and they certainly don’t determine who you can become. You are strong, powerful, and beautiful. You can live your best life now and inspire millions along the way. So, what are you going to do to start living your dreams today? Tell us in the comment box below!
