Self Belief

We all feel gloomy and redundant in many phases of our lives. In those trifling moments we tend to go into our shells and want to spend some time there. The good with the bad and the bad with the good are part and parcel of life. We have to live with what we get that is for sure. Somehow in such phases we underestimate the power of sharing. When we are feeling down we do not want to share or talk about it. From my experience the mind that creates a problem has difficulty solving it. That is where sharing helps a lot. When you share you start feeling lighter. The burden held by one is shared by more. Moreover, you might get a solution of your problem through sharing as well.

What really gets us going? Is it Hope? Inspiration? Motivation? Faith? Belief? Trust? Ultimately it is a mixture of all these that gets us up each time we fall. Falling down is not an issue at all but not getting up and giving up is where the true mantra of life and living is lost. When we are feeling down that is where our hopes, inspirations, motivations, faith in our thinking, belief in ourselves and trust in our abilities kick in and make us stand and deliver to the best we can once more. Having something that we can always rely on in hard times would always breathe new life in us. That reliable force and phenomena is none other than our own belligerent self.
