Achieving the best in me!

Can I become a violinist? Can I be a successful entrepreneur? Can I become the best of me? How hard is this? How much this would take? Why I'm not always the best in everything I do?

Sometimes we are too hard on ourselves. We want to be the best and this week I learned that it is possible to succeed in life, it all depends on us. Sometimes we blame everyone and everything because we are experiencing hard times. God has given us our free will the opportunity to choose what we want to become. We have the ability to choose whether we want to become doctors or teachers. It all depends on us. I learned this week that if we want something the only thing we have to do is to work towards that. We will have many distractions on the way. But we can decide if we want to accomplish our dreams or if we will stop because the conditions were not the ideal for us.

Anything in this life is easy. Everything requires an effort. I have tried many times to lose weight. I decide that I will follow an exercise plan. I decide that I want to work out at least 45 minutes a day. I make my plan. Day one has some difficulties but it works because I am motivated. Day 2 I feel good because I am following my schedule I work out but instead of 45 minutes I decide that 40 are ok. It's just 5 minutes more so no one will notice any difference. Day three... I was really busy and had no time to work out. But tomorrow will be a new day to start over...

After a month I realized that I have done nothing to lose weight. I am still the same... I start thinking that probably I need to try with a diet because exercise doesn’t work for me... As humans we try to blame others, or our circumstances. Everyone else is responsible of our failures. But this week I learned that I have the potential within me to become everything I want. It won't be easy, but if I persevere it will be possible.
