We are the human beings with so much emotion regardless of our state of well-being. There are certain things that could deprive us of moving forward in life. Let’s take for instance;
Our Relationship
Relationship is the way in which two or more people are connected, the state of being connected either by blood, by marriage or some kind of business. Some people have been apprehended by this word called “relationship”. The way we handle and manage our relationship is one thing that could hamper our moving forward.
This is because we have invested our time, our intuition, money even our emotion for this we condone unnecessary attitude gearing towards reunion, in most cases it doesn’t work, we endure, forbear things that which we shouldn’t condone and thereby dying emotionally. It might sound difficult to understand the fact that the love of our lives can also possess awful, sometimes dangerous qualities.
How can one person seem so fantastic, yet responsible for your happiness, some spouse will want their partner to get angry when they are angry and happy when they are happy. This can hamper our moving forward if not taken care of, now know that you are responsible for your own mood, you are responsible for your success, your relationship will either make or mare you. In this case, you have to quit that relationship, pick of the shackles which were broken from you, gather up strength and move forward.
Our Career
Our career has a great role to play in our lives. When choosing your career you need to be cautious and careful, consider who you are, the area you specialize on even the dream you had in the past.
You can stop moving forward if you are in the wrong career or doing the wrong job, for instance: Imagine you becoming an engineer when you’re actually passionate about becoming a photographer and a wide life journalist.
Most of us rarely consider this and some individuals go a long way to satisfying their friends or parents by the choice of career they choose.
Now you should know this, if you want to impress anybody with the choice of career you choose it is detrimental to your personality and by so doing it is a waste of time. Your career can also make or destroy you. Do you know why? It is because that’s not the line you are called.
You need to do what you are passionate about but then if you think you are on the right track consider the vision that drives you into the career, why you like the career, what problem could you solve through your career, how comfortable are you with that, now having understood why you are in that career what is your mission and vision statement.
One bad thing is that many plunge into a career without reasoning and understanding why they are there if you can understand why you are in that field your success is assured. If not you are gearing towards jeopardy.
Our Friends
A friend is like a machine which can either make you or mare you.
The kind of friendship that can mare (damage or destroy) you, here and hereafter is that which is called pressure group. This group has the potential to rebrand you to whatsoever you allow, it influences without consideration. Therefore, you must be conscious of the group of friends you move with. Are they really friends that could help you progress?
You need to surround yourself with friends that are worth being with, those with the right minds. Wrong friendship could hamper your success, it destroys the good foundation and reduces you to nothing, and it can also stop you from moving forward.
In order not to associate yourself with the wrong people:
You are to be in control of your life
Be the master of the ship
Choose your friends wisely
Make sure they are people of like minds
Be courageous and stand firm in your decision
In all, by taking control of our lives, knowing that our happiness lies in our hands, it will help us in moving forward without distractions.
