Even though all hopes seem to be lost at a time the whole world is talking about economic recession, for those who know their source there’s nothing to fear or worry about. And for those in deep despair, our sources still remain unchanged, only if we recognize it and tilt aright.
It’s true that depression leads to destitution, not only of material things, but also of ideas. For this reason, we have to open up ourselves to all that life has to offer, and that begins from knowing whom we are and those we have. We need not lose sight of the good things around us that can bring succor in our present circumstance.
This period obviously calls for sober reflection, thorough pondering and self evaluation. Yes, you’ve what it takes to make a difference, because we’re differently molded and gifted as well. You seem not to find your bearing because of the thorough evaluation and research you’ve failed to do. And if you’ve done so and still haven’t figured out something; then check yourself very well. There must be something still left undone.
May I suggest something that could help? First do a DNA of yourself, your strength - your skills, hidden talents, those things you like to do, the ones you know how to do which you’ve been giving less attention or no attention at all. And then your weaknesses – is it lack of self confidence, conservativeness, fear, unseriousness, indecision, unwillingness to take risk, poor communication, poor relationship management.
Now could you please do a run-down of all the people you’ve known, be it family members, associates, colleagues, friends old and new. Think of what you can do, and who among the people you know can give you a push. Who readily comes to your mind? Is s/he an old friend or a new one? It’s a relation or a colleague? Are you having doubts about meeting this person? Or your old shell still beclouds the fact that a trial may convince you? Take a bold step! Discuss your thoughts with the person, and tell him/her where s/he can come in.
But be mindful of moods, approaching a person at those moody moments can be frustrating. So you must recognize individual differences, for that can help you in winning supports. If you perceive some mix-feelings in the person before the discussion, please reschedule the meeting. However, if this occurs in the middle of the talk, you may still rebook the meeting in order to pass a complete and resounding message.
Remember that our minds travel a lot, so follow up and reminders are necessary. Meanwhile, refusal of one person to support your idea/plans shouldn’t serve as a basis for conclusions like – oh all hope is lost and there’s need to try another person. Or everyone one will treat me like the first, and so there’s no need to move on. No, never accept defeats, and endeavor to erase impossibility from your life-dictionary. Rather than, dwell in the thoughts of failures and defeats, let them serve as turning point in your life. You must always learn from every mistake you make. The win, win situation ideology and the “I can do spirit” should be your golden rule or guide at all times.
Remember to appreciate to those who helped you to move on; life is never about all what you know, but about the people you know. When you know how to manage people and your relationships, you sure will succeed. Don’t forget, you must learn to do things differently.
Who says the reality of our times has given away benevolence? Who says there’re no good Samaritans anymore? Who says this recession has eaten up all our finances and our ideas? Come, think! Think yourself out of the current situation and shift the paradigm to where change and help are.
Do a recall of those you’ve offended or gratified in the past, chances are that you’ll find favor from them if you’re at peace with people in all places. Let your comfort come from your sweat, efforts, and all that you’ve invested in other people.
Pause a while and figure out how you can change your situation. Everything is possible, is just a question of pressing the right button, taking the right step and meeting the right people. Give it a try, and let’s talk it over again.
