Tired and demotivated I wondered whether I could make it has an entrepreneur, and not to mention the personal challenges. One in particular, where my father lost his leg in the fight against diabetes. I felt empty. I did not even know what to write about.
I always believe in sharing my passion. I am no writer and I am still learning but I love to write from my heart.
Today I just thought I would share on how to motivate yourself to get back up after being knocked down. Just a few tips that I am applying to my own life. Maybe in some small way it may assist you as well.
As an entrepreneur one of the first things I decided to do is to stop being hard on myself. Sometimes if I shared something on one of the social media sites and no one liked it, I would feel like I failed, like I did something wrong. However, I have learnt that not everyone will like what you do and that is ok. Also success is a journey, just the fact that I decided to write is in fact a success :). The truth is everything takes time it is not going to happen overnight.
The next thing I did was instead of always shutting away from people and being on my laptop, I decided to connect with people that can elevate me. It is ok to ask for help. Surrounding yourself with positive and successful individuals can help you feel better about yourself. Their positive support and encouragement will assist you in wanting to achieve and to do your best one day at a time.
This next motivator is very important. Get up and do something. It can be as simple as going for a walk, joining the gym or just doing something to help someone. Moving about helps you feel better both physically and mentally. I have learnt also that when we start to focus on others our own situations suddenly looks pale in comparison. Knowing that you have contributed to putting a smile on the face of someone automatically puts a smile on your own face. :)
Well I hope this put a smile on your face. Remember the journey is not for the swiftest but for those who endure. Have a productive day and remember to dress with Fi-nesse. www.facebook.com/finesseregal
