Motivational Thoughts

Image
  Don't fear the challenge--- embrace the growth. Beating the struggle is what makes you better. What do you do when you face a challenge? Do you run from it or welcome it and deal withit, using it to grow stronger. Handle pressure with more discipline each time and take control of it. Show the version of yourself that truly matters, don't hide it. Someone might need to see it. Have you ever thought that someone might be silently falling apart near you and might really need the strength or encouragement that might bring them. Your first step is deciding that it's possible. That you can do it. How do you usually make that decision? What moves you to that conclusion? Write about it in your journal. If you want to, doodle at the bottom of the page. Your worth lives inside you. Achievements and wealth fade away. Your real value is what you carry inside, what you can use to make a difference for yourself, and for others.

Is Your Journey of Growth an Adventure?


Ask yourself, am I growing or am I paralyzed by fear or doubts and uncertainty?
Since journaling is one of the best ways to explore one's inner self and reflect on important life topics,
and since it is a great writing exercise. How often do you journal?
When you do, is it enjoyable or do you consider it one more writing chore?
Is it an empty exercise?
Writing prompts can help us discover aspects of our lives that we may or may not have thought about before. We can discover aspects and areas of our lives that have been hidden to even our thoughts and emotions.
Following are 10 journaling prompts based on my quote: "Look at growth as an adventure, a journey forward". Ponder them and write your response to all or to some of them:

1. What does "growth" mean to you?

2. How do I feel when I think about growth, mine or my career's?

3. What opportunities for growth have I taken in my life so far?  Am I scared to take chances?

4. What is my definition of an "adventure"?

 Do you see it as a risk?
5. How can I create more adventures in my life?  Write down something imaginative, even if it's a little crazy.

6. How do I feel about embarking on a journey forward?

 Do I feel excited or scared and reluctant?
7. What steps can I take to move forward in my life today?

8. What are some fears or obstacles that stand between me and growth?

9. How can I turn these fears into opportunities for growth and as an impetus to move forward?
10. What can possibly be holding me back?

List 5 things you wished you had done differently so far.
List 5 choices you wish you had made.
List 5 things you want to do in the not-too-distant future.
List 5 things you're excited about right now.


That was great.
Keep writing!
