The circumstances of our lives when we were young usually have a major influence on whom we are as we age. Our parents and the love we received have a huge impact on the way we present ourselves late in life. If we felt neglected in our early years, it would not be uncommon for us to feel as though we are not worthy of love now or perhaps that love is missing in our lives now. We could actually now have difficulty expressing love to self and others.
If we were appreciated and given praise for our achievements in our early years, we are far more likely to be self-assured, self-confident and able to move forward in life with enthusiasm. We believe in ourselves. Because of this, in many cases, those that received support on many levels are the ones that seem to make much more progress in life.
There are exceptions to this however. There are still individuals that struggle even though they were provided with much support in their formative years and there are those that forge ahead and excel in life although they were provided with very little reinforcement in their early years. This suggests that our concepts or beliefs also play a part in how we move forward in our lives regardless of the influences in our early lives. At the very least, we are able to move beyond these influences through effort and work.
There are many who feel at the mercy of life and believe that they are just pawns in the process. These individuals glide along life’s path offering little resistance to what they call fate. They feel as though life creates all that they experience and that they can do little to change things as they are dictated to by circumstances.
There are also those that will fight for what they believe in throughout their lives and will not let life’s circumstances get them down. They push forward with conviction even under the harshest of conditions and do not let those conditions control their reaction to life. These are the people who are motivated in life. We can learn much from their example.
We are only victims of circumstances if we so allow. We are continually offered opportunities to take life by the horns. The secret is to recognize these opportunities. We do not have to lie dormant nor do we have to fear involvement.
Our early influences can affect us, if we care to carry these events forward emotionally, but we can shake away the chains of the past to make any necessary changes for our current path. It does takes some courage to move forward but it only stands to reason that if others can push through these barriers, we too can also find it within ourselves to do the same.
It just might be time to push through these past influences that have stood in our way. It just might be time to change our belief structures and release any challenging conditions that are based on mental focus. It just might be time to begin a new with strength and resolve that can be found within.
Take whatever steps are necessary but most of all believe in self. Fear nothing but fear itself. Fear is your greatest enemy if fed but certainly surmountable if challenged.
