What Takes To Cross The Ocean

What Takes To Cross The Ocean

Our thread today has got nothing to do with maritime travel or those adventures in the high seas but we'd like to make an analogy of our very own COMFORT ZONES and the oceans itself.  So, our riddle for today is figuring What Takes To Cross The Ocean and that means, asking ourselves if we have the gumption and courage to leave our COMFORT ZONES and embark to face challenges unknown hitherto๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž

This thread is NOT related to the biblical story of Moses crossing the Red Sea.  Instead, the biggest question we need to ask ourselves is, HOW READY are we to face all the challenges when we embark?  But when problems arise in life, it is natural to focus inward as a way to try to find solutions to relieve the discomfort and unhappiness the problems bring.  However, the more we mull on a problem or situation, the unhappier and more stressed we will feel, and likely, that solution is NOT in sight๐Ÿ’Š๐Ÿ’Š๐Ÿ’Š

That OVERTHINKING then tends to interfere with our ability to solve problems and then, it gets to sap our motivation. motivation.   Now, if OVERTHINKING will be our roadblock when we go out there to cross the OCEANS of LIFE, what's our FIX? First, try to replace WORRISOME THOUGHTS.  True freedom comes in learning to replace obsessive, negative thoughts with positive thoughts✅✅✅
Once you are in the midst of your pursuits, SOLVE  WHAT CAN BE SOLVED.  Take a step towards solving the problem[s].  If you need to, you could write down a list of possible solutions to the problem.  Once you got your options at hand, take that concrete step of taking action instead of waiting for something to happen [and worsen things].  Then, try figuring out your TRIGGERS. That means figuring out what can IGNITE you❗❗❗
Whatever it takes, you got to CROSS the SEA.  Look at the wider perspective of things by asking yourself if what you are ruminating about will matter in a year.  Then, WORK FROM YOUR STRENGTHS.  With very little effort, you could probably list your weaknesses and shortcomings to find out which ones do NOT yield the positive results.  Bottomline, you got to CROSS THE OCEAN๐Ÿ“Œ๐Ÿ“Œ๐Ÿ“Œ
