No Despair in “Purpose”

Whenever one is trying to do something that so many may consider out of the norm or something they’re unwilling to do. The resistance will come and when it does one has to put on the armor because all sorts of attacks will try to settle in. Any sort of “rise” can create anger. Speaking out can cause some to question one’s destiny. What’s planned is planned and what shall be shall be. It doesn’t matter how many people come up against a person or persons no one can stop a purpose from occurring. We all have choice and can take a different direction but somehow we come right back to what is designed for us.

Dealing With the Resistance

Of course it isn’t easy when we’re dealing with those who may perceive the journey as a challenge. Those who come up against us are doing so out of fear. Fear that there will be greatness and changes that so many may not want to occur. Whether “the people” want those changes to occur. Change will occur. It may not occur on our timing but in the Living God’s timing the change will occur. Within the process. One will have to face the critics. Those who criticize out of wisdom and knowledge and those who will criticize out of hate. Either way one must be prepared to face harsh criticism in any major project.

The more aggressive critics are ones who speak but will rarely put their wording into action. They will try to use intimidation to try and stop a “movement.” Unfortunately the society that we live in is made up of bullies. If they’re disagreeing with a movement then they’ll try to find ways to prevent a person or persons from elevating. Especially those who are afraid of losing their status or position. In order to remain whole one will have to consult with those who have been through the journey or a similar one. Internalize what is needed to move from level to level. Sort of like the game of “chess.” Use strategic methods in order to “prosper.” There will be times when it seems as if the world is on the shoulders of those “walking a purpose.”

A Calling to be Great

When called to perform certain tasks one will have to build toughness. Sometimes taking some time to ponder on the next move will generate the results that are needed to get closer to the destination. Rising doesn’t happen overnight and when trying to rise one will have to disconnect themselves from those who aren’t on the same page. Leaving behind relatives and friends. Of course when on the journey some will disconnect themselves or simply turn against the one or ones that are perceived to be elevating. All due to fear but in some cases it’s merely envy.

Be Courageous on the Journey

Courage is needed on the battlefield. Using the term battlefield because that’s exactly what it feels like when having to deal with the critics or in a lot of cases, cynics, those individuals that can’t wait to rip apart ones inner confidence. Although they exist. The cynics or critics shouldn’t be a reason why someone stops a movement. Removing the fear and meditating will help get one through those adversities that will arise. Believe that they will. Those things will come to pass. Not on our time but on the Creator’s time. Advancement requires a lot of energy. Some days one may not seem so energized but even when the energy is low. The courage shouldn’t be removed.

Keep Going

Even when others try to stop the process. It’s best to keep going. Some choose to keep going in silence and others remain vocal. Those who are passionate about what they’re doing will probably remain “vocal.” Being vocal can draw in lots of enemies but even the enemies are filled with lessons. After awhile the enemies will be far behind the one on assignment. We may face new challenges but that’s to be expected in life. No one is immune. As time goes on. The process will become easier and those who need to be within the environment will be there. Some may not seem present but are. Within the assignment and assignments we will find the answers that are necessary to continue on the “designed plan.” So many may not understand and that’s alright because one’s journey or vision isn’t for everyone. Understanding won’t reach every person.

    • One needs to be strong to go off the beaten track as there will be many who would think that whatever is being tried would be a futile exercise. History has many such examples.

    • There are so many nibblers in the society. But we need to over win these people. They cannot help us to grow. Life is not like living in a silver plate. It will always come to enhancing one's craft. Some people can mold us to be a better person and we tend to change for a betterment of others too.

      • The key is the remain "determined" and find common ground. Those who will be in the line of resistance are doing a disservice to themselves. Some may perceive that they're gaining by trying to rip a person or persons apart. Society is filled with all sorts of people and sometimes we will have to deal with those who are disagreeable most of the time. What's purpose will be no matter how many people are in disagreement. Be blessed.

    • The photo itself is giving inspiration to the person who feel in despair. Sometimes we just need to look around be motivated in our life and don't just sitting in one corner.

    • In this world you cannot live without adversities. we cannot live without friends and enemies they are essential in our lives. just like we have friends who will help us in life and at other times they mislead us, so are our enemies. there are those who will help us and there are those that will mislead. So we all need to be determined to be able to live a good and straight life. i like your article very informative.

    • Those who are harassed by others are those who have weak will power and intention because it does so due to lack of knowledge is the main cause of it. Read the history of a revolutionary person he is criticized by others bitterly at home and out of home but he does not go the wrong path and follows his mission of bringing revolution in our society. At last he succeeds in his mission on the ground of will power and nothing else.

      It is said intention brings fruits in physical shape. Sometimes you wish to go for a walk, knowing how good it is for your health and how wonderful you feel afterwards, yet, you feel too lazy and prefer to watch TV instead. You may be aware of the fact that you need to change your eating habits or stop smoking, yet, you do not have the inner power and persistence to change these habits.

      Does this sound familiar? How many times have you told yourself, "I wish I had will power and self discipline"? How many times have you started some new activity and quit after a while? We all have had experiences like these.

      Everyone possesses some habits or addictions they wishes they could overcome, such as smoking, excessive eating, laziness, procrastination or lack of assertiveness. Developed will power and self discipline bestow the inner strength to overcome any negative habit. They make a great difference in your life. They can make you a winner in whatever you do.

      Will power is the ability to control unnecessary and harmful impulses. It is the ability to overcome laziness and procrastination. It is the ability to arrive to a decision and follow it with perseverance until its successful accomplishment. It is the inner power that overcomes the desire to indulge in unnecessary and useless habits, and the inner strength that overcomes inner emotional and mental resistance for taking action. It is one of the corner stones of success, both spiritual and material.

      Self-discipline is the companion of will power. It endows the stamina to persevere in whatever one does. It bestows the ability to withstand hardships and difficulties, whether physical, emotional or mental. It grants the ability to reject immediate satisfaction for something better.

      The human being is full of inner unconscious, or partly conscious, impulses. People sometimes say or do things they later regret saying or doing. On many occasions people do not think before they talk or act.

      By developing these two powers, one becomes conscious of the inner subconscious impulses, and gains the ability to reject them when they are not for his/her own good.
