Have you ever questioned the importance behind the pain, suffering, and desperation we feel in life? Often times, it's easy for us to lose ourselves in the moment and not see the big picture of things. Yes, pain is uncomfortable, suffering is horrible, and desperation makes us feel like we're losing ourselves before we've had the opportunity to find ourselves. Often times, these emotions have so much they can teach us, yet we avoid them because we don't want to experience any kind of suffering in our lives.
In Why We Fall, I take you through a journey to uncover the truth behind the importance of these emotions in our lives. I walk you through the importance of learning to understand them and how to find the best way to cope with them. It's not an easy journey, but once you grasp the concepts and ideas that we'll discuss in the pages of this book, you'll find that living a fulfilling life and one that you feel satisfied with, has never been easier.
Quotes and oneliners
When you realize the power that shifting your perspective into this way of thinking has, you kind of become unstoppable.
You become bulletproof to chaos because everything that ends up happening is always aligned with your values.
Losing yourself is just as important as finding yourself. In fact, I would even dare to go on and say that it’s more important.
Acceptance is the most important step toward being able to achieve the warrior’s mentality.
We need to feel grief in order to be able to heal. If you never recognize that you fell in the first place, how do you expect to be able to get back up?
Being a warrior doesn’t mean that you never fall. It means that you’re courageous enough to recognize that you fell in the first place, that you’re courageous enough to accept it, and that you’re courageous enough to decide that you want to get back up again. That’s the true definition of becoming a warrior.
“God sometimes won’t give you what you ask for, but he’ll always give you what you need.”
God’s journey is always perfect, and things always happen the way they’re supposed to when walking alongside him.
life is not something that we have to do. Life is something that we get to do.
Believing in something greater than ourselves allows us to align our values and our principles with our purpose in life. Believing is the key to opening the door to our full potential in life as a human being. Believing is what allows us to put things into the bigger picture and understand that life is not about us but about developing the talents that God gave us and putting them to service for the common good of other people. We were not brought to this world to rejoice in ourselves but to rejoice in the service that we give other people.
Your purpose is what you were brought to this world to do. It’s the thing that God sent you to this world to accomplish. With your unique set of talents and traits, you need to know yourself enough to get to know what your calling is.
The idea of a purpose can only be completely understood when we decide to believe in something greater than our own existence.
“When there’s a big enough why, there’s no too big how.”
What our purpose essentially teaches us is that it’s selfless. Our purpose won’t focus on ourselves as the end goal but on others. The more we get to know ourselves, the better we’ll be able to decide what our callings are.
Belief, discovery, acceptance, and intention. These are the four pillars that help us live a well-intentioned life and focus on our purposes.
Purpose is the force that drives everything that we do.
About the Author
It’s not easy. Before we move on, remember this. It’s like going against your own nature. You’re programmed to behave in a certain way. Your genetic code tells you that it’s ok to be the victim and to believe that everything that happens to you happens because there is a certain type of secret conspiracy working against you. We enjoy and crave being the victim. It’s comfortable and we like it. Easy things are what the mind naturally cherishes the most. Well, we’re going against this. We’re going to challenge ourselves to stop feeling sorry for ourselves and instead begin to think in a “problem-solving” mentality.
A true warrior has their values so aligned with God that no matter what happens they know that everything is happening according to God’s plan. There’s no need to feel scared or uncertain because they know that God is testing them and making sure that they’re following the right path. A true warrior knows that they’re going to be tough times and that they need to find ways to solve them because only then will they be able to say that they got stronger. Only then can they actually find a sign of improvement. Only then can they feel like they’re making progress and moving on. Even when they fall, they fall forward. Falling back is not an option for them, because they know that that’s letting the victim’s mentality kick in, and they don’t do that anymore.
