The very fact that you are discouraged is a bigger problem than what is discouraging you. Some people for instance, are discouraged that their lives are not being what they want it to be or living up to their standards.The truth of the matter is, the life isn't the problem, it's living the life discouraged instead of doing something to make your life standard. So what you have been turned down multiple times by employers, isn't an excuse not to find work. It isn't am excuse to be discouraged.
Why not be on a Positivity Campaign?
Whenever people talk about the negative issues for instance, about my country Nigeria, I always look at the positive side.This perspective has kept me balanced and positioned me, ready for when it's time to shine. It has given me hope,a silverlining in the dark clouds.
The Bible says in Luke l0:40 that Martha was discouraged by all the preparations that had to be made.She came to him and asked “Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!" And the Lord replied, "You are worried and upset about many things, but, only one thing is needed." Rather than allowing discouragement swallow us up,let our perspective change and focus on the matter.
Take the case of the popular story about an inventor, that kept trying to invent his idea, continuously for 99 times,only to get it right the 100th time. It may seem that there's no light at the end of the tunnel, keep trying don't be brought down.
With discouragement and discontent, other thoughts begin to creep into our mind. Feeling of lack and nothingness. With this, people start to feel tired and not in the physical sense of the word, depression, envy etc.
We shouldn't always be in a hurry to succeed, if it doesn't work the first time, don't be discouraged. We should learn to treat our failures as stepping stones, rather than weighing blocks.
Remain blessed and have a good week ahead.
