Lately i've been kinda disheartened with everything, everything meaning my job. And im so close t giving up. But i won't! Because its pretty dumb t do that. People start criticizing you for how you do what you do without thoughts of whether their words might affect you. I guess constructive criticisms are a good thing, honestly. But at certain points in life, like currently for myself, nothing major happens but a few drawbacks and it just makes you feel down, really down. And you comtemplate about every single thing, even ones you were once excited for. I guess its definitely not easy t hold your head up high despite whatever that's going on. Personally, its just too much pressure on me/for me right now. Im really trying my best t be professional and keep telling myself t do my best in everything. But its not easy at all, not one bit. Its so hard because regardless of what i've been through, its those times where you start doubting yourself in everything that you do. Doubting yourself even in your passion, in what you love and enjoy doing. Its not easy t make it in th industry that im in. Th only way is t never stop believing in yourself and what you can achieve. And t be really, really thick-skinned and never ever let words get th better of you regardless of who it's from. But its not easy doing that, its not easy following your believes and ignoring negative parts of th rest of it because encouragement brings you up. Im not asking for encouragement but i guess its true that whenever someone encourages you, you instantly feel much better.
Its a tough industry where every single soul would kill t make it, hence i suppose i should never stop believing in myself either.
Hey Rina,
ReplyDeleteThere are bound to be such people to bring you down when you are up there.
Its the same everywhere at work place, soccer team and even band.
The only way to counter this is just to do what you do best.
Cheers
Hey Petrina
ReplyDeleteI know you don't know me and despite being under your friends on FB we have not spoken before..
But i can totally understand how you are feeling. I know that the industry you want to succeed in is tough but it can be done if you continue to believe.
In every area of life, there are winners and losers. But what makes the difference is the one most important word- Belief. Nothing is right or wrong but is distinguised by our thoughts. Our thoughts control everything around us. When we start to have doubts and fears, these can be the obstacles that stop us from reaching our goals. We all face fears and doubts and it takes great effort to strengthen our will and mind to be consistently positive with such negativity around us. What we contemplate is what we become eventually. So my advice is to build your will so strong and be positive consistently without letting anything bring you down. This will set the forces in you and automatically lead you to work hard for it and it will all be worth it . Make your goal an obsession, a burning desire. Nothing serves a greater support than our mind.
I wish you all the best in your endeavors :)
