It is easier to get discouraged in this life. It is way too easier to throw in the towel and say, ”I am done”. You feel the pressure from every angle and you see discouragement staring at you in the face and you have to respond. Sometimes, most people feel it is best to just give up and stop trying. I always ask people who try to give up on anything this question; ”What motivates you in the first place?”.

Once you are able to know why you have been doing what you have been doing, it is easier to retrace your steps and find the needed motivation once again. We all need a little bit of encouragement and motivation every now and then so that we can continue pushing and going in life. Some days you find the motivation to get through what you are supposed to and often times motivation finds you, so you can still get through with what you are expected to. The point is you have to stay motivated if you ever want to get anything done, achieve the impossible or dare to be different.

In my language; Yoruba, they used to say, ”Agba to n sare, ti ko ba le nkan, nkan lo n le” meaning if you see an elderly man running, it is either he is chasing something or something is chasing him. The bottom line is the elderly man is running due to some external or internal quickening. Whatever your goal is, whatever you aspire to attain, you need to stay motivated. Either you look within or you look from without.

If you can’t jump, then run. If you can’t run, make sure you walk. If you can’t walk, make sure you crawl. Whatever you do, keep moving. Don’t stay in the same spot.

Whatever your hand finds to do, make sure your motivation level is high and never stop seeking what can inspire you to stay motivated. Speaking of motivation now, these two amazing athletes come to mind; Ronaldo and Messi.

In our words we can say, keep doing something to find out an alternatives of getting the things done. Just sitting idle due to failure may get you in depression. A state of mind which lead to unresponsiveness. So better keep going and make your spirit high to achieve what you are aiming at.

Absolutely true. When you keep at it for long, you soon find alternative ways of doing it. A man failed 99 times and got it right the 100th time but he said he didn't fail. He said he only found 99 ways of doing the same thing. Approach and positiveness matters.

That's true brother . It's all about being taking every step in positive manner ...

In this life, the going is not always palatable. But there is always a thing that serves as an encouragement or motivation for us. We all have reason to wake up in the morning, doing what we think is right in our sight. There are things that put a smile on our faces. Once there's life, hope is not lost and there are always room for improvement, no matter what. Nothing is possible unless we try.

Nothing is impossible unless we choose not to try. Life responds to pressure and situations give way when we try. Only when we choose not to stay motivated can we find it hard to sort things out. There is no limit for a determined mine.

Gracias, amigo.
