There are things in life you can’t control, but there are WAY MORE things you CAN control. You are so much more powerful than you think, and with the right mindset and communication, you can go much further in life.

Every situation is different, but each situation comes with a choice. Many of us have goals in life, and for some, those goals seem unobtainable, out of reach, or even IMPOSSIBLE. The moment you think something is impossible, it becomes impossible. But when you think something IS possible, the chance for it to happen now has an opportunity to grow.

· If you don’t have enough money, get a side job.
· If you aren’t skilled enough, practice more.
· If you don’t have the right connections, make friends.
· If you don’t have a following, provide value.
· If you’re not making enough progress, get out of your comfort zone.
The list goes on...

And sometimes the thing holding us back the most isn't as obvious as lack of money or skill, it's the people you surround yourself with. Your friends, your family, your boss, your teachers, and even people on social media all have an influence on your decision making and self confidence.

But remember that other people’s idea of what is possible may not align with your personal goals.

To move forward, you must push through the adversity and set up a game plan for accomplishing those goals. Or all of these people might be very supportive of you, and the only person against you is YOURSELF.

So you, above all else, should have self awareness. Make sure you communicate effectively, keep your eye on the prize, and be realistic with your time management. Set goals, look at what you can accomplish in a day, and don’t let anything hold you back.
