7 Reminders When Feeling Lost, Behind Or Having a Hard Time

1-the timing isn’t for us to fuss about so, let it go
This is a realization of mine and a bit you heard it somewhere too.
I was until recently feeling behind, feeling stressed to why my life isn’t great and
why i didn’t reach any goals I wanted to, especially career ones.
after reflecting, i noticed I was trying to force things and feeling
entitled without realizing it.
We are not owned anything from life just because we took action.
we need and must take action from a state of belief constantly
but we need to keep in mind that When it will happen isn’t up to us
what we can do is to adjust on the technical level and mental levels.
look into what we think and the actions we are taking or
not taking then change them one at a time
because change isn’t a flip-the-switch kind of situation.
things take time and effort plus trust in god’s timing
“Accept god’s timing because it will happen”
Because he is the only one who knows the best time
This is freeing in the sense that I don’t need to worry about the time and
know for sure that it will happen.
release the force and me from all of that
It helps direct my mind away from what’s not in my control and
back to what i can do when i feel behind or lost
2-this too shall pass
This one I got from Alieen at Lanvdire
It’s a reminder that whatever you’re feeling or whatever you’re situation is.
it’ll pass nothing in life stays the same not hard times or feelings
It helps me to find a moment of peace in difficult times and
direct my mind to a better place if i can ( we can’t always, that i know nonetheless,this can be helpful sometimes)
it just reassures me
Like the previous reminder, it feels less hard knowing that you’ll no
t be in this place forever but it’ll pass
it’s a fact of life that thing don’t stays the same.
you can look into your life and how has it changed even if not something big,
how life around you changed and the world too
3-ups and downs have nothing to do with me it’s just what it is
I may have done something or not to get certain results or not,
But that’s part of it the other part is up to the outside
eg circumstances, environment, god’s timing and will,
also, life’s happen isn’t something you can control
I am not saying don’t take responsibility or work towards your dreams, however,
when things don’t go as planned or when you’ve been taking action
but you’re not seeing results and you’ve tried so many times to
change things to improve but still,
you’re where you’re and everyone else is getting ahead
This is a reminder that not everything in your control because it’s 100% a lie.
focus on what you can control and not on what you can’t
there are things in our control which are the things you take responsibility
for change, improve, and keep taking actions
other than that, you need to trust that it will happen if you keep going at it
when things happen to you that you truly didn’t cause don’t blame or
punish yourself remember this
there are many things that happen to us that are outside of our control
it‘s a realization i got once during a difficult time
while helped me focus on what I could instead of wallowing in what i couldn’t control

4-you’re on the right track stop worrying and stressing
” stop trying to prove yourself so hard, have fun discover who you truly are & experiment about
what life you want to live and the rest will unfold as it is meant to unfold”… Aileen at Lavendire
This is just beautiful, don’t you think?!
This wonderful reminder to focus on your effort and have faith in god that
things will turn up will change for the better as you work on yourself and your dreams
it’s a recent find that I felt that I had to share it with you
5-have faith in yourself and that you’ll make it no matter what
“believe it’s possible for you otherwise you’ll sabotage because you’ll always act according to your core beliefs” Monja at well with Monja
In life i find that you need faith or else quite honestly i would go mad.
It’s essential for peace of mind and it’s i believe to be part of the truth
Self believe is what makes the difference in the actions you take and the quality of those actions
You can take action but is it really moving you closer to your goals and
if you don’t believe in yourself you’ll sabotage everything in your actions like
you’d waste your time perfecting your content instead of publishing it,
or focusing on the design of your website rather than the actual work
When you feel behind, lost, or uncertain you’re not believing in yourself
That you make it, that you’ll overcome this, you’ll get ahead,
you’ll know the way or can find the way out of this
it easily can slip out of our minds because of
the state and thoughts we are having at the moment
6-focus on doing meaningful work on the day-to-day instead of looking for sensational success
I like this reminder because
It’s not only about effort but choosing where to direct that effort and
the best direction is toward doing something meaningful instead of only focusing
on the big goal, vision, or success itself sometimes that’s great and motivating
but other times focusing on the vision can lead us to feel behind
so, focusing on the day-to-day work is the best thing to get over that feeling of being lost about how to get there
or behind everyone is already succeeding and you are not
how i define meaningful work for me is doing something that I enjoy
and that can help people no matter their size.
It can be a post that helps people in any way, any project you take that sense of accomplishment
it’s a good reminder when you’re lost or feeling behind to remember
that what matters is doing something meaningful that you enjoy and
are proud of that can help others

7-You can afford to make the wrong choice
Sometimes you are lost because you don’t know which choice to make, which direction to follow
You have to make the decision even if it’s not direct one
It struck me that’s why I included it here because many of us including me
can have difficulty making decisions big or small and that can cause us to feel confused and lost
And that is because we don’t want to make the wrong choice
This is a reminder that even if you do make the wrong choice you can pivot and make another decision
i had a coaching program that i decided to cancel after a long time of promoting it
because I felt it was not the thing for me to do and not what i wanted to do really
Finally, hope you find something here that is helpful that you can use yourself
To your greatest success

Yes, we do need to have faith in God. He already gave us the grace to do things, we have to believe it and wait for it.
