Success is an altitudinal journey.
If you have walked up the hilly side before, you will identify with the pains in every stride.
Hence, the lighter you travel the easier.
You don't want to carry any weight on the hill side walk.
Weight are both physical and spiritual or emotional.
There are various technological ways to ease off the pressure of physical weight, but emotional are intangible but more powerful and domineering.
Emotional weights are the heaviest; hatred, anger, malice, envy, jealousy, offenses, worrying, apprehension, sadness, aggression, and such likes take a lot from us; drain us of innovative, creative and productive energies - like Mosquitoes -parasitical.
However, as powerful as emotions can be, we can either buy in or decline.
Emotional weights are like birds flying looking for where to perch; do not become the victim of unstable emotions.
Situations will continually present opportunities for happiness and sadness as long as we are alive but we can choose to see all the situations from a vantage position and be continually happy.
I have earlier defined success as a mental state.
Success is a state of the mind that inspires one to go on and try again and again no matter how many times one has failed.
This can define you when you do all to travel light. Do not allow the past experience to define the future.
How does one travel light consciously?
Here, I will be introducing my therapy.
- Cast your 'weights' on God. It is not given to humanity to carry any emotional weight; any at all. God Instructs us to Cast all weight on Him. This is why we keep our communication with God open 24-7 all year round. You simply pour your heart out to God in prayer and trust that he will do something about the weights.
- Study the Bible habitually. Here you will discover, you are not the first to be challenged. You may also find a similar dilemma and be encouraged to trust God deeper. You will always find strength and many times instructions about how to deal with the situations.
- You can also share your mind with someone, a confidant and many times discover together a way to move ahead.
- Do not isolate yourself. This is the most dangerous place to be when one is weighed down.You can find a friend, travel back to your Alma Mater,Go to church or your religious ground of persuasion, find a book that bears on your concerns,find a sporting activity of interest, attend an event, watch sound of music, listen to an evergreen tune;anything to take you out of the box.
- Focus on your Altimate Goal, anticipate the challenges ahead and see such as leverages to your success.
So Travel light consciously.
