+ | Life is a succession of challenges. To be proud and strong along this difficult journey, all we need to do is to stop, acknowledge, celebrate, and build from the fact that we overcame or at least did our best to tackle each challenge. Failure to acknowledge an achievement equates to discredit our efforts, which feeds into a cycle of hopelessness where we feel increasingly powerless to move on. The difference between these two choices has to be made as we complete every challenge, before we decide to move on to the next challenge. Failure to positively acknowledge an achievement makes us weaker. To stop after an achievement and choose to feel pride makes us stronger. | ||
