049 - Keep Pushing

Welcome to 1 Minute Tips! When someone tells us to keep going, to keep pushing it, saying things will eventually get better, is when we tend to resist it the most. We are already in a bad spot, everything seems to be falling a part. We’re paddling agains’t tidal waves, our little boat is hardly afloat. I know how it feels, but this is exactly when you should paddle even harder. And yes, keep pushing! This is just a season, and it will pass. It may feel like you are going to be stuck in this bad season forever. But this is not true. Remember when you were younger, and you had to face a huge problem? Try looking back now, you may even giggle realizing how that monster of a problem looks like a tiny puppy now. You will never get rid of bad seasons, challenges and problems in life. But as you progress, as you learn and grow, you will get better at dealing with the adversities. So, yes… keep pushing! Things really will get better. I’m Rod Gomes and I’ll come back with another 1 minute tip soon. Take care, stay active, stay positive!
