Push Forward!

Those two words can be some of the hardest words we can ever do, but some of the most important as well. We have all had those days – the days that you just want to give up. Those days you wonder why you are even here. Those days you wonder why God even created you. Yes, even I have had those days. Remember, you are alive today for a reason. God is not done with your life. He has a plan and a purpose for those trials that come your way. Here are some steps to help you push forward:

1. Wake up and thank God for waking you up another day – Just being thankful for the small things in life will really help you through the difficult days.

2. Don’t let others attitude change yours unless it’s for the better – It’s true misery does love company, but don’t allow yourself to be the company.

3. Put a smile on someone’s face- There is nothing better than seeing a smile on someone’s face a knowing you put it there.

4. Realize that this “hard time” isn’t going to last – Yes, you may feel like it will last forever but it won’t. God will not allow you to be miserable the rest of your life.

5. Don’t compare your life with others- Be happy for other people’s success. Your life is YOUR life. You are successful in your own ways. God has a great plan for you and in his time things will unfold.

6. Surround yourself with positive influences: If you don’t have any positive people in your life then maybe it’s time to delete some people out of your life. Find something positive and feel encouraged that in due time this too shall pass.
