Not everyone will understand your journey. That’s fine. It’s not their journey to make sense of. It’s yours.

“Can’t”. You keep using this word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Achieving personal goals: Focus on the positive
How you see the world is largely a matter of what you focus on.
What kind of world do you want to live in? Do you want to live in a world that is hostile and dangerous, or one that is friendly and warm?
To see more of what you want in life, remember to focus on what you want to see rather than on what you don’t want or don’t see. Look for and focus on those things that you can like and appreciate in others, not on what you don’t like.
You will find the world to be a much friendlier place by being positive — and discussing what you like — than by being negative and complaining about what you don’t like.
We find what we seek. By remembering this at times when you might otherwise find yourself being negative, your attention on the positive will attract more of what you are looking for in life.

Achieving personal goals: Focus on what you CAN do
There are always things you can’t do. But there are always things that you CAN.
There are always things beyond your control. But there are always things within it.
You’re never as stuck as you think you are.
Anyone who ever accomplished anything had limitations. If you truly want something, you’ll find a way.

Your world will change dramatically once you stop giving yourself reasons why you can’t do the things that are holding you back and you start giving yourself reasons why you can.

Sometimes work sucks, relationships suck and we find ourselves feeling down as a result of thinking about all the things that aren’t as we wish them to be in our lives.
At times like this it is important to remember that energy flows where attention goes. In essence, whatever one focuses on grows stronger. This can be to one’s benefit or detriment depending on where one places their attention.
If you truly desire a positive change in your life, then focus on what actions you’ll take to change things for the better — don’t dwell on what isn’t going well.

Remember, every difficulty or challenge we face is an opportunity for growth and improvement. In fact, this is mainly the only time we learn something new or life-changing.
When things are easy, we’re not developing new skills or new ways of handling something emotionally, spiritually, or physically.
And it is especially true that our attitude towards challenges can make all the difference. Ever really want to learn something “fun”, even though it was difficult?
