Again I was inspired by Abraham Hicks who said something like if you are discouraged you cannot feel well. And I realized that may have been the main thing that blocks me: being discouraged.
And the discouragement comes from having worked so hard, having pushed so hard business, career wise and it didn’t work out.
And I believed in working hard and persistence. But I’m 50 years old and my working hard and my persistence didn’t pay off in building a proper career, having some kind of financial security let alone having a thriving business.
So recently I kind of stopped. Also based on the ideas of Abraham Hicks that doing things from resistance and not from inspiration does not work. And it seems this idea is correct as I did a lot of things in my life, have taken a lot of action, have been persistent and all those things and for a long, long time I had the feeling it didn’t work as I thought it should work. And the last two years or so everything slowly fell apart business wise and financially.
So what now? If hard work doesn’t pay off, if ‘doing things’, ‘taking action’ doesn’t work, if ‘persistence’ as I thought what persistence was doesn’t work, what then?
Well, I kind of stopped. And I’m kind of waiting. But that also doesn’t seem to be the solution. However, taking (uninspired) action also doesn’t work. And the last year or so patience did work in the most important area in my life. And with my team here on Inspiration for Success patience also seems to pay off.
But not easy if you’re a ‘doer’ and are out of money. And weird also as I’m becoming more and more successful in all kinds of areas in my life. Except in finance. Weird, but it was also the start of this project and of the sample goal.
But how can I believable as insprirator if I consider myself not successful, if I can’t even support myself financially?
