Understanding your goals to help you achieve them.
Momentum
Laying in my bed in the dark hoping to have the strength to get up and face the day. Just the idea of it all terrifies me. Every moment I lay there thinking, driving myself deeper into this state of mind. It feels unbreakable. My failure day after day only compounds the thoughts that weigh like bricks keeping me pinned to my pillow. The depression seeps deeper into my mind with every passing day, and it feels like I will be like this forever.

Why You Should Start That Side Project Today
Do you remember the last time you did something just because it was fun? Something that you have been thinking about over and over again, but just never had the time?
Laurie WangPublished 6 years ago in Motivation Life
I saw a post not long ago about waiting for the good parts of life. When you're at school, you can't wait to finish and get a job. When you've got a job, you can't wait to be retired. When you're in a relationship, you can't wait to be married. When you're married, you can't wait to have kids. When you've had kids, you can't wait till their older — and so on, and so on.

I want to start this off by saying that I am by no means perfect, nor am I super successful. I am, however, very optimistic. Now yes, I've had my moments of doubt like everyone has, and I have dealt with depression that did leave me crippled mentally, but somehow I managed to bounce back numerous times in ways I thought impossible. In my opinion, the universe is a funny place. I'm no expert when it comes to galactic beams of energy that somehow manipulate our decisions—not to say that the existence of such energy is questionable—but let us pretend for the time being that it does exist. If it is true, then what we give out to the universe will be paid back to us in one form or another, correct? Sort of like how we view good and bad karma. Well, personally, GOOD karma would be great for me right now because I need a Christmas miracle haha. BUT, in all seriousness, I'm in a slump, maybe even like many of you are. My money is stretched thin, my bills aren't paid, eviction notices every month, and yet I make just under 60k yearly in income, which isn't even considered middle class anymore in my opinion. I'm 27 years old, a high school drop out with a criminal record. In all fairness I did all these things to myself. Fortunately, with the help of self reflection, we can be taught many things about how we totally F'd up and should have made better choices. Although it's too late to change those particular things now, it is, in fact, beneficial to try to unlearn past behaviours in order to succeed further in life, or like right now. Do it. Haha.

What is it I see? You know when you imagine yourself with someone or something? That's a false reality. When you doze off thinking of the opportunities you might get? False reality. When you go through something and try to press rewind — in life! False reality!

From writing your goals down, telling someone about them, and celebrating each of your steps, you'll find that sticking to your goals, and ensuring that your goals are the right path for you, is much easier than you think.
Kelsey LangePublished 6 years ago in MotivationI Never Thought I Could Sing Opera
If you had told my sixteen-year-old self that in six years, I would not only have the confidence and skills to sing in front of any size of crowd, but that I would have a large role in an opera, I don't know what she would have done. Probably laughed it off in disbelief, or maybe smacked your arm before sticking my tongue out at you and running away. It would just seem too far-fetched. Especially since I couldn't hold a pitch to save my life.
Kayla WillseyPublished 6 years ago in MotivationThe Worker Today
Through our lifetime we put all our energy into spending our first years learning to walk and talk, then the next few years starting school all the way to graduation. With the hopes that you will secure a good paying job and then working the rest of your years until retirement. But what are we attempting to secure? Happiness? perhaps a life that feels everlasting and fulfilling in every way. Maybe you are simply working to supply the basic needs in life (food, shelter, and clothing). What ever the reason we are always searching, eventually we run into this inevitable feeling of despair and uselessness. The big question I want to ask is how? How do we go about living life and working towards a goal without this deep dark feeling of running like a hamster in a wheel?
Genuine KaeoPublished 6 years ago in MotivationWhy I Am Grateful for Teething Babies and Ear Cleaning - Manifestation & Law of Attraction Story
This is a story in which you will learn how to begin manifesting your truest desires right this minute. Before I begin this story, I want you to know a key behavior you must practice to allow your mind, body, and soul to be open to receiving that which you have always desired. This behavior will allow your mind, body, and soul to settle in a state of peacefulness and ease so that it is easier for you to mentally focus and attract your desires. You can start with this behavior right now! You do not need to purchase anything. You do not need to be a certain race, economic class, social class, or meet a specific guideline to begin manifesting your desires right now! This behavior is the act of being grateful. Even if you are currently living a life that you can't stand, you must think about something simple that you can be grateful for. For example, if you are currently not experiencing life in the perfect body shape that you want and desire, do not focus on that which you do not have yet. However, you must focus and then feel grateful for something you actually do have. Maybe it's a substantial home you live in, a special talent you have, or the career you have. Once you have at least one thing you can be grateful for, focus on the emotion you feel when you think of it. Do you feel happy, excited, or special? These emotions are very important to recognize because it is another essential tool you will use when manifesting your desires. I will write more articles that speak in-depth how to manifest, for beginners, how to use the Law of Attraction to gain into your life that which you want most.

Most people believe their life is like a feather in the wind. They have no control over their destiny. What if I tell you that is not true? What if I tell you that whatever you think of that you want in your life it can come into reality?
