It's Hard To Work On Your Goals When You're Grieving
Shit happens. Over a year ago, I lost someone I love — my heart and soul. I’m still profoundly unsettled about it because of my unending love for them. The second wave of grief came over me recently due to unforeseen circumstances, and I’m still working through that.
But I read something interesting today in “177 Mental Toughness Secrets of The World Class” that gave me the boost I needed:
“Champions know why they’re fighting […]. When the going gets tough and the pain kicks in, average people back off from a goal or task. This is when the world class really begins to fight. When they begin to feel physical or psychological pain, they go inside themselves and draw on their vast reserves of emotional power.”
Yesterday, during my grief, I asked myself, “Do I still have a purpose?”
My response was an immediate “YES.”
Though I’m in pain and grieving, I aim to inspire and lift others. That’s why I’m here. I’m going to fight through the grief, the disappointment, the pain, and the new journey I never envisioned for myself because of you.
If you’re grieving, depressed, hopeless, or going through it today, know that you’re not alone. It’s okay to feel your pain and dive into those emotions. But do not lose yourself or your dreams in the process. You still have a purpose, life, and immense value; hold onto these truths and forge ahead!
