5 Ways to live a succesful life

  As we all know life can be tough. It can bring you down and can be unfair. Knowing how to bounce back from failure and defeat is one of the best things to have access to. The mind is so powerful. We can literally become what we think. I would like to share with you a few things that have helped me get through life.
               I have found success in using 5 primary things. Hope, faith, endurance, sight, strength. Hope is one of the ways in which I believe. NO MATTER what Is going on hope is what I use when the chips are down. I could have had one of the worst days ever , but hope helps  me maintain my belief in myself and my life.  Faith is very important. My faith comes from my religious beliefs. I'm a catholic and I have faith in God and myself. Faith and hope are very synonymous. You can find faith no matter what your religion is.
               Endurance is the will to take all that life has to throw at you no matter what. If you can endure the hard times you will find that you only became stronger from those very times. The saying "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" is very true. You have to be able to take the hits  and bounce back. Being patient in life is a must. Life throws so many curve balls. Patience is a gift.
               Sight is seeing what you want in your mind. Dreaming or daydreaming are good examples of this. I like to visualize the things that I want. I usually lay on my bed close my eyes and listen to good music. I see and feel what I'm wearing. I feel my emotion at that moment in time and imagine who would be around me. This exercise takes time. Starting off with a simple image in your head like you wearing socks is a good way to start.
                 The final and quite possibly the most necessary key to success is your strength. Strength is pushing yourself to limits that you've never seen. For example when you workout you push yourself to lift more weights. We need to strength to endure.
                All 5 of these things take time and effort to develop. Its like riding a bike. You have to fall in order to learn how to properly ride it. You CAN do anything you believe you can do. When in  doubt say this to yourself. " I've never understood the concept of quitting".
