Believing that you are perfectly fine the way you are is one of the worst things you can do. It might have worked when you were younger, but now you’re an adult, and your life is in your hands.
The world is going to knock you down sometimes, and it’s going to hurt. You will lose hope, and you will feel like giving up. But there’s a power that’s hidden within those desperate times that you can learn to harness.
The truth is, you can do better.
You can be smarter. You can become wiser. You’re just not hungry enough for the deepest levels of transformation, which is why you continue ending up back at square one – with nothing to show.
At your lowest moments you have nowhere to go, there is nobody to help. So where do you turn? You turn to yourself, to the deepest part of your soul that’s yearning for transformation.
When you’re desperate to change your life situation, you’re going to activate something inside yourself that’s a force to be reckoned with.
Tapping into the inner dragon during desperate times
It can be difficult to stay motivated during your lowest moments.
Part of you wants to give up because you’ve put so much in and have gotten so little in return.
Don’t listen to this voice.
There’s an energy that you can discover deep inside your suffering. Tapping into this energy is a key to unlocking the deepest levels of transformation.
Your life evolves through pressure. If your life is always just okay, it’s easy to get complacent in a situation that is far from ideal. On the other hand, if your life situation is so painful that you can’t tolerate it anymore, the pain will force you to discover a deep motivation that propels you further than you’ve ever been.
When you sit with the dense feelings of desperation instead of trying to escape them, that’s when a deeper voice kicks in. This voice tells you to:
- Commit to change
- Do everything in your power to follow through with that commitment
- Trust the process
You might need to readjust some things, learn more, and work harder, but during those desperate moments, failure is not an option. How can it be when your dedication to change has become the cornerstone of your life?
This is the energy I’m talking about, dragon energy. It’s a powerful force of dedication and strength, and it can be harnessed when you’re at your lowest.
The decision you make when you’re on your knees begging for some rope is one of the best decisions you will make.
There’s a reason why the happiest people are usually people who have had it tough. Life has broken them over and over, to the point they were forced to create change in their lives.
If you’re looking to change your life, you need to realize that those desperate times are your fuel. They are what drive serious transformation, as long as you harness those moments and use them to propel forward.
Unleashing your inner dragon
There is an inner power that can only be accessed during your darkest hours. This power is what gets you back on your feet with a new outlook on your life situation, and a newfound inspiration.
When you feel defeated, channel that energy to focus on the life you want to create. Use the moment when you feel defeated to align yourself with who you truly are.
Part of the big downfalls in life is to teach you what you don’t want your life to be. These downfalls shift your alignment towards what you want to create. Learn what you don’t want your life to be, and realize that you must bring change into it. It’s this realization that leads to true empowerment.
Fueling the engine
Self-belief is a key to creating the life you want. If you don’t believe in yourself, it’s simply not going to happen. But don’t let this get you down because self-belief is something you cultivate.
You need to believe that you can achieve what you want to achieve. Logically, why can’t you? Many people in this world who came from nothing have created amazing lives for themselves (and other people). Many successful people have been in much worse situations than you.
So you tell me, what separates you from these people? Why can’t you acquire the skills, abilities, and characteristics that you need? Is success written in your DNA? Are you cursed from the get-go? Because maybe I’m just an optimist, but I can’t think of why you can’t become the person you need to, to create the life you want.
Think of some reasons why you can’t be the person you want to be. After giving it some good thought, analyze your answers. Think if other people in that situation have become successful. Now think about the qualities, characteristics, and skills you need to develop, to create the life you want.
Hack out the pathway
If you can’t even see your ideal life, you’re shooting in the dark. Of course, you’re not going to get there because you have no vision. This is why it’s extremely important to define what a good life means to you.
Is it living in a tropical paradise, connecting with community and friends while your money works for you? Is it being a powerful influence in the world that people look up to, or perhaps bringing some serious positive change to society in some form?
Visualization is a powerful tool that you should harness to illuminate the pathway forward. If you’re regularly dreaming about a better life, one way or another, you’re going to start seeing the details required to make it happen.
This isn’t to say that you shouldn’t be present with your life experience for where it currently is. But when you desire something enough, especially if it’s something that makes you feel like you’re moving towards a bigger picture, naturally you’re going to spend some time marinating in those thoughts.
You will feel the sensations of that reality. You will picture every little step it takes to get there. You will feel the emotions and imagine every obstacle that you need to overcome. This is a crucial component of manifestation, and it’s going to make a big difference.
If you had a billion dollars, what would you be doing with your life? What would your life look like? Where would you be, what would you invest it in? Imagine this scenario like it has happened, and feel into it. What sort of life makes you feel the most fulfilled?
Step on the gas
Once you have illuminated the path, you need to take action. I don’t mean trying for a week and giving up. I’m not talking about doing bits and pieces here and there until your life situation becomes tolerable. You need to gain momentum by pushing forward, as hard as you can.
When you’re at your lowest moments, keep your foot on the gas. Research, learn, build yourself, apply your knowledge, and do everything in your power to move the needle. This desperation will act as a generator. Once things look up a little, keep your foot on the gas.
When things start unfolding in your life, keep your foot on the gas. I mean it, don’t stop just because things are going well. You need to keep steamrolling through. If the universe gives you an inch, take a mile.
You need to be consistent, and every day chip away at your dreams. Every day move the needle. It will become a habit, and it will feel good because you’re moving towards something that lights you up.
Embrace transformation
As you throttle forward into your higher power, you will face more challenges.
Some of these challenges will easily be overcome, others will bring you back down. There will be times when you’ll battle with feelings of despair, hopelessness, and doubt, but you can’t let that stop you. You need to push forward regardless.
As you develop yourself and become the person you need to become, you will begin to change. You need to encourage this process of change as you continue evolving into better versions of yourself.
Part of embracing transformation is learning how to let go of the previous you. Sometimes your lower self is going to latch on to you, but as long as you continuously learn, grow, and transform, that part of you will never take hold.
Make sure you’re always pushing towards a better life, and remember to use those desperate times as fuel for the engine.
