I'm amazed by how many people sit and do nothing when there are incredible opportunities in front of their faces.

No One Will Help You As Much As You

No one will ever be as committed to your life as you, And why should they? It's YOUR life, not theirs. If you aren't helping yourself grow and you aren't being committed then how can you expect your life to go well?

You Can't Rely on Others

Sure, We all need help, We all rely on other people. But we can't always rely on others. If we do, We'll be disappointed. People are going to make the best decision for themselves. And not you.

You Can Take Responsibility

I don't know why people hate taking responsibility for their own mistakes. It's the greatest feeling in the world to me, Knowing that when I messed up, I messed up because of something I DID. Not because of something someone else did.
When you are constantly helping yourself, and you are relying on others less, you can take more responsibility for your mistakes.
This will allow you to make critical improvements to yourself, Instead of standing by and hoping the person that messed up your life will change.

No One Wants To Invest In Someone Who Doesn't Help Themselves

If you had the opportunity to give 1 of 2 people some money, Would you be more likely to give it to the person who is going to use it to grow it, Whether they invest it, Start a business, etc.
Or someone who is going to take your money and throw it in the garbage can?

I bet the answer is pretty obvious.

People are more likely to help another person who is also willing to help themselves. Many of us see that person struggling, But who works hard, And we want to help them.
When you invest in yourself and try your best every day, People will help you. When you rely on yourself, More people will be there to give you that extra boost when you need it.

Some Opportunities Are Rare

Some of the most incredible opportunities don't come around very often. This is one of the reasons I'm trying to post as much as I possibly can. For those Steem Dollars, So I can then buy Steem with them.

When you take advantage of amazing opportunities, So much life-changing things can happen! Who knows when you'll get that amazing opportunity again. So Help yourself, Invest in yourself and focus on growing who you are. It adds up over time.

That’s a reality , we are born alone and we die alone everyone’s always busy with their life and sometimes people who say they are there for you , really aren’t

Exactly! Everyone is around for themselves at the end of the day.

Good read Kay. Even God does not help those who do not help themselves.

Nicely said.
The part about taking responsibility is the biggest part and a lesson I learned when I first moved out of my moms house.

Nothing more important than taking responsibility of you life, your actions and owning the consecuenses .

When we are kids ( and even as grown ups) it’s so much easier to blame things on anyone. Specially our pain. But if we are stuck in a situation we don’t like.. we will always have the power to remove ourselves from that situation.

Also, nobody will see the worth in us.. if we don’t see it ourselves.

There’s this quote from a book i like “ we accept the love we think we deserve “ and it is SO true.

Exactly! I love that. And yes kids can get away with it, But as an adult, you can only get away with it for so long.
I LOVE THAT quote! It's so true, I see others push people away who sometimes treat them better, If they feel they don't deserve that extra love.

YES! Oh gosh i love the way you think! ( that’s why I follow you obviously!)

This last thing you said about love... so true! People push others away because they don’t think they deserve being treated nicely.

They have been treated badly in the past and got it all wrong thinking that is what they deserve.. so when they get treated like that again.. they think its ok.. and they think it is love what they are receiving!.

Their self steem is broken. Luckily there are ways to fix it.

I myself for instance.. had a really hard time talking complements from others. I would just not believe them and say to myself Immediately after hearing their nice words “ they don’t mean it, they are just trying to be nice. They are doing it because it is polite to say nice things about others “.
It was insane how often i would do that to myself. You would not believe it! Lucky for me I’ve been on such a journey that has helped me a lot in seeing my self worth. And understanding that people don’t just say things.. no one is obligated to be nice... they choose to because they like you or appreciate you.. so they mean it when they are nice to you.

I sometimes self sabotage still, but.. it’s way better now.

Very strong point about other people being more willing to help the one who is working hard, rather than the one who is not. I see this a lot in life!. Great post!

So true Kaylin! I believe that we have to make things happen ourselves! Can’t sit around and wait for things to drop in front of you!! Must go out and get it! 💕

Exactly! And if you don't, No one else will.

And thanks for all the inspiration today :) I’ve been Steemimg away all day thanks to you girl!

No problem :) I'm so glad you spent all day on here! hehe! Definitely time well used.

and sometimes two heads is better than one. If things don't get right I always ask for others opinion and most likely it turns out ok...

Thanks for sharing. God bless!

Right? Thats a good one hhehe :)

that's why we have intuitions... gut feelings... and angels along with us :) hehehe

Indeed! I've recently decided to plan a party for my wounded 2 year old self to show her she's loved and special. Will be posting all about it. :) Nice post!!

I often see people give up when they do not see progress . But being motivated and staying to your word and making it happen is how it should be . Nothing comes easy in life

Right? That happens a lot sadly, Sometimes sticking around just a little longer can make a big difference.

Little things get bigger one day

Totally true. I worked for a charity, we showed what the members had put in and it attracted big institutional money. SHOW WILLING!....and be willing.

excellent post ..loving to your blog.thanks for sharing..
