Fighting For Our Dreams

These days my forward momentum feels very slow. It feels like I’m walking in sand. Every step is an effort and I feel like with every step I lose a little bit of ground. I want to share my story about having bipolar disorder and I want to be a life coach for voice-hearers so why is it so hard? I think there are underlying fears that are holding me back. Like the fear of what other people will think. Like the fear that I won’t find clients or that people won’t be interested in my story. There’s definitely a fear of failing and of not being good enough.

How do we keep going despite the fears and self-doubt? How can we keep putting energy towards our dreams, even when it’s difficult?

I received guidance this morning to keep pursuing my dreams and to not give up. Creator wants me to struggle forward and keep walking through that sand. There’s beauty in the struggle. Perhaps it is a test to see how much you want something. It wouldn’t be the same gratification if it was easy, would it?

We all have dreams that are worth fighting for. The dream to have kids. The dream to be a star sports player. The dream to graduate from university. The dream to do work that can help people.

When things get tough, we need to remember why we are struggling forward. Why are we doing what we are doing? What messages do we want to share with the world? Why do we want to live our dreams?

I pray for strength and patience on this path. I don’t pray for it to be easy, but I pray to be on a good path. I want to put good energy into the world and make a positive difference in the lives of others.

One foot in front of the other. Keep your eyes on the horizon.
