Don’t Quit!
Sometimes, it’s great to come across and re-read an old favourite!
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but don’t you quit.Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow–
You may succeed with another blow.Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up,
When he might have captured the victor’s cup,
And he learned too late when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.Success is failure turned inside out–
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit–
It’s when things seem worst that you must not quit.-Author unknown
If you are struggling to stay on track, if life is full of ‘efforting’, if you are feeling stuck, it might be time for a MEM session!
I’m FINE!!!
Having a giggle today now that I have stopped my website from crashing, but the last 48 hours I was not myself! Being a creative being I need to ‘do my own website’ – it’s fun – though too time consuming at times….and challenging. So the pressure got to me….this morning I resigned to having a session to get rid of how I was feeling - being in a resistant/angry state of mind is not productive at all….and I was not having fun……and the feeling was not leaving me. MEM is the greatest tool alive to get rid of anything about you that you do not like or would like to change….and being an MEM Practitioner means we have a great community / support group to call up for a quick fix every now and then. Funny though how once I resigned to having a session, the pressure lifted. What’s that about??….well, the simple subtle act of not wanting something is resisting it…what you resist – persists. (still too simple for us humans to grasp!) Not only was I fighting the things going wrong…but how it was making me feel….
The question is though, why
do we hang on so long before we seek help? For me it was only a day or so of, but I am not used to long periods of stress or pain any more…it was a long time for me….and the solution is so simple and effective – and guaranteed to work!! It’s the difference between an OK, good, great, or exceptional life…….where do you want to hang out??
To my friends at dinner who saw a different side of me last night – sorry I was a bit out of character….wishing you all an exceptional life XXNicole
