If you’ve ever been told you’re trying to achieve the impossible with respect to a valued goal you’re pursuing, in business or elsewhere, and you STILL continued, then this article is for YOU!
And if you know anyone who fits the foregoing description, this write-up could help you gain a better understanding of what she’s about
Do You Feel You’re Being Controlled By An Irresistible Force?
You don’t know how to explain it, but your pursuit of your purpose in life is no longer in your control.
Instead, it seems to have taken on a life of it’s own. And you now find yourself being more of a spectator as it acts itself out through you!
Your friends and loved ones no longer understand you. This…this…obsession of yours makes no sense to them. Yes, that’s what it is: a senseless obsession as far as they are concerned.
Your spouse or mother has probably asked you the following question (in a concerned and loving voice):
“Why won’t you see reason and give up this dream of yours that’s turning you into someone else?”
But all you do is go right back to chase your dream or goal…or obsession
You Don’t Seem To Know When You’re Beaten
Each time they’ve seen you get knocked over by repeated devastating setbacks, you have miraculously gotten back up, against their expectations!
But what they fail to realise is that each of those times, it was not you.
It was the power of your dream.
That insane obsession of yours. It’s given you an amazing ability to withstand the hardest knocks and bounce back in little or no time to resume right where you left off!
They do not know you are now firmly under the intoxicating influence of your magnificent obsession.
Before now, when you were just starting this journey, it was YOU who had to keep yourself going inspite of failures, temporary defeats, prolonged periods of intense anxiety, and other forms of adversity.
Back then, YOU had to muster the courage to continue, to grit your teeth and push back harder against those frequent negative experiences that kept befalling you.
You had to pass those shrewd tests of your resolve by the forces of nature. Eventually you broke through, and began making headway towards your valued goal.
You Celebrate Baby Steps of Progress – To The Amusement of Others!
It always amazes those around you, that just one tiny inch of progress you achieve at any time readily gives you unbelievable pleasure and sense of accomplishment.
Those baby steps taken closer to your dream mean the world to you, though others around you silently think they make no difference to your situation!
But that’s because they cannot see what you see. You’ve been doing this for a while now, and your conviction rather than waver, has grown stronger, because the faint visions of the future that you’ve been having, have since become much clearer.
And now, having kept at it for so long, the life purpose you pursue (which in some circles is called a Magnificent Obsession) now drives you, instead of you having to chase it!
You now instinctively sense the right way to think, and act, to make progress to the next stage. It’s almost like you’ve become psychic.
Where it concerns making progress towards your dream, you just seem to KNOW things without being told.
And sometimes very strange and powerful coincidences – consistent with needs you’re nursing – sometimes happen to the total amazement of even those who doubt you!
Your Success Is Close By
All of these happenings can be a little scary, but at the same time you find them reassuring.
A voice inside of you tells you this is a new level of self mastery you’ve arrived at.
Your persistence has paid off in form of a higher ability that now equips you to continue – more intelligently – in pursuit of your dream.
It won’t be long now, before the others, including the doubters – and especially the haters! – see that you have indeed arrived – and by so doing proved them wrong about you.
That’s why the last thought that should cross your mind right now is giving up, or quitting.
If you do that now, you’ll be kicking yourself for the rest of your life…or until you “kick the bucket”!
