⏺ Do not wish away your opportunities! Part 1

in life •  7 years ago  (edited)



We all want our situations to be better. We all think the 'one up' is going to be that much more glorious, but the truth is, it never is. At least, not permanently. Tony Robbins says he lives by a few philosophies, but one that struck me the most was gratitude.
It is said that it is impossible to experience anger and abundance at the same time. It's either one or the other, but never actually both at once.


So, with that being said, I think the key to success in any situation, is being grateful.


Now, don't get me wrong. Don't mistake gratitude with being satisfied. Those are two different things. If you are satisfied, then you will have a more comfortable approach, and comfortability is the enemy to taking action.

It's alright not to be satisfied, because that will motivate you to not stop working towards things. Gratitude is simply seeing the good in the situation. Be grateful with what you have achieved, no matter how small the accomplishment is.
Always grateful, never satisfied!
Now, that was actually sort of a side topic towards the main topic of opportunities. Stay tuned for Part 2, where I will talk more in detail how what I have spoken about so far relates to opportunities, and how we are wishing them away.

The man is a legend :)

Thanks for stopping by! Talk soon.

Thanks for sharing. Upvoted and resteemed.

Thank you for that man :)

I think that people lose a lot of opportunity because they want everything to happen the day they started.. I am new to this kind of stuff and honestly i dont even expect anythink to happe , this way if i make even the slightest progress i will be more that happy .

Great mentality :) That's the best approach to this kind of thing. I wish you the best to your success here having a great time!

Talk soon.

Agreed with "do not be satisfied!" because dreaming has no boundaries!

Nice perspective! Yes exactly :) Thanks for that.

Talk soon.

Hello @enazwahsdarb,

Thank you for helping on my post.

My take is on this be grateful about what you have but aim higher if you are not satisfied. Just my two cents.

What do you think of this? :)

Love it my man. That's exactly my approach to this article :)

Great input brother. Talk soon!

Talk soon! :)

Always be greatful, but never satisfied. Great and challenging words to live by. It's easy to be ungreatful, and unproductive or greatful, but unsatisfied and stuck in a rut. By living with an equal amount of both though I think will lead to great success :D

Definitely. Thank you for taking those words to heart. You're right, sometimes it's so much easier to be ungrateful. We just need to shift our focus :)

Talk soon.

Hello! your post are very good!
what you said is very interesting.
be thankful for small things, more not satisfied
because when we are comfortable we do not face the challenges, and therefore, we lose great opportunities.

I'm going to follow your post. They make you reflect, it never hurts to think a little about what we do

Thank you very much for this awesome comment :) Love it.

Stay tuned for Part 2! Talk soon.

of course. a pleasure!

Great post as always my friend and I agree 100%
Being grateful is important and to be able to se the bright side of things.
We don't have to be sadesfied at once, it's more fuel to keep going and not give up until we are.
Thank you for sharing. Talk soon 🤗

Thank you Sara :) I appreciate your constant support. True friend.

Amen to that, sister!

Talk soon.

Talk soon 😆

Talk real soon.

Always 😊👍

Thank you bro! I appreciate that :)

Talk soon.

There are opportunities out there, I was there and I've been there, but they are less and far from my expectations. It looks promising, though, but they are not. It sound good only up-front (facade maybe), but when you are in it. It will take a lot of power like Superman to be able to keep you at bay, if not, you will end back where you started, feeling abandoned.

So true! I love the way you put all that. Well said my friend :)

Thanks for stopping by. Talk soon!

Gratitude....it goes a long way.

Agreed :) Thanks for the stop by my friend :) It was nice to meet you.

We should engage in each other's content more often. Talk soon.

Def! I will follow you right away

I just followed you back :) Talk soon my friend!

It's alright not to be satisfied, because that will motivate you to not stop working towards things

If we keep challenging oneself we will get better always. Inspire more steemians.

Thanks for that brother. It's one of my firm beliefs. Let's do this, and change people's lives!

Talk soon.

Great Post. It's true what you said. But I​ often see people that they miss the part to be grateful to easy. For me, ​you wrote it in the right order. First be grateful and then​ don't​ be satisfied. Looking forward to​ more Post of you.

I am glad you are agreeing with my perception. I too gave that a bit of thought at first, then I realized that the order was quite important. Thanks for noticing!

Next part coming up in about 11 hours. Talk soon.

I love this

Thanks a bunch! Glad you love it :)

Talk soon.
