Hello?
Are you there?
Of course you are.
You Are Still Here
Have you ever had a bad day?
Ever been devastated?
Think
back on the three worst days of your life. I am sure there were points
during that day when you saw absolutely no way out. As much as you tried
to see the positive, tried to gather some meaning from whatever you
were going through, you just couldn’t see it. You were in a dark place.
Pitch black. No way out.
But you are still here.
As
much as it felt like it would never come, you made it to the next day.
You felt like you were going to die, but you opened your eyes, and it
was a new day. The sun was up. The stars were gone. And you were still
here.
You Are The Victory
We like to look to others for motivation.
“If they can do it, I can do it!”
What
we need to realize is our own stories should be all the motivation we
need. All the positive we need when we are trying to pull ourselves out
of the darkness.
Why?
Because
you have already done it. In fact, you have done it over and over, yet
you still doubt your strength and resilience when the next issue arises.
You ARE the victory. You ARE the story you should be telling yourself. The one that picks you up when you are down.
Why?
Because you CAN do it.
How do I know?
Because you ALWAYS do it.
As
long as you keep pushing, keep fighting, and keep grinding, the
darkness will break way to light. It always does. As long as you keep
digging, you will get there. The same way you did it last time, the time
before that, and most importantly, the next time.
Remember
The
next time you feel down. The next time you are having a bad day and
can’t see the silver lining, remember who you are. Remember what you
have been through. How you have persevered. How you have gone from
darkness to light when there was no hope. No one else did that for you,
you did that yourself. It was your will, your heart, and your strength
that pulled you out. You don’t need the motivations of anyone else, you
have it all within yourself.
I would tell you to be the victory, but you already are. You just need to recognize it.
Take a look.
It’s a beautiful thing.
