Journey towards self discovery Part 4 - Who am I?
By Lois Setoh | February 22, 2008
In Part 3, I was sharing :
How would you respond when what you planned turn out differently? Do you see it as a FAILURE or a FEEDBACK – You Decide!
Continuing my journey with you,
Due to the changes relating to my work and choosing to take what has happened as Feedback, I began to embark on a new journey about my work.
I started to observe myself in this new journey. It was interesting to see my response.
After choosing to look upon the unexpected change as feedback, I started to look at the situation.
My thoughts were jumbled up and Mr Fear starting knocking at the door of my heart. A companion of Mr Fear came together and we shall call him Mr What Ifs.
“What if I fail?”
“What if my finances are insufficient?”
“What if my loved ones do not agree?”
“What if….What if….What if….?”
Sounds familiar?
Embarking on this new journey, there was fear and uncertainty within me. Not knowing what lies ahead seemed imposing and left me shaky.
When we embarked on new pastures in life, what we do not see or know, it may appear daunting and frightening.
To unlock Mr Courage in your heart, here’s a bunch of keys called BHHHT.
B elieve :
Have a childlike belief in what you have decided. Leave behind yesterday’s success and look at the new journey through the eyes of a child.
H old Fast :
Hold Fast to your values and ideals. Remember why you chose what you chose.
H ope :
Do your best, work hard and have hope. Hope will lift your spirits up when you encounter difficulties.
H ave Faith :
Have faith in a Greater being and in yourself. Often, doubts may creep in and uncertainties may arise, having faith will propel you to move forward.
T rust :
Trust in yourself and others. Starting a new journey will involve others. We will need their help and it makes the journey more enjoyable.
Friends, I leave a saying from Mark Twain.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that
you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
