I just want to say that since being here I've noticed people displaying amazing resilience, even through the stress and difficulties that are evident.
One thing though, that often slips even for the most resilient of us, is the WHY. The meaning and the reason to go on struggling through.
Without that, innate resilience and toughness built through hard knocks is just not enough.
Goals help a lot, and they give a reason and a focus.
For me, I have the following goals;
I want to give my kids the best start I can.
I want to build my business so it can help people.
I want to make enough money so that I can build a charity/NFP.
But some times even the goals are not enough, and I need a deeper reason.
The one thing that's helped the most is a deeper WHY that gives meaning to the struggle itself;
I may be going through hell right now, but I am building a story of resilience, and when I get through hell I will be able to help other people who are still walking through the fires.
If you don't keep going, you won't build you're story and there may be someone in your future that REALLY needs to hear it. You owe it to that person to keep going.
“He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche
I don't really know any of you, but I believe in you.
"When you're going through hell - keep going!"
