Our Supporters
Who has always supported you, and your dreams?
Individuals come in and out of our lives at various times to assist us in our chase of self-improvement. I have had several people show up, and push me. Whether it was listening to my frustrations, or calling me out on my negativity. They were there to support me with whatever I needed in that moment. This week I discovered an author friend had listed my name among others, for supporting their coaching efforts and authoring a book. This discovery was so powerful for me. I never knew my belief in them made a difference. Who supports you and the dreams you are chasing?
Colleges, spouses, and friends step into our lives at the most opportune times to push us, so that we may see our value and worth. They see what we cannot, at times. Their belief in us is without reservation. Why is that? Why do we fail to see our full potential? Often, we become blinded by the efforts we are making, any setbacks, or our own defeating minds.
In the earliest stages of our dreams, these supporters are the sounding boards and the cheerleaders we need. The enthusiasm they provide is powerful. As we make gains toward our goals, we will eventually experience roadblocks. Their continued encouragement continues to push us. When our excitement fades, they reignite the passion we originally saw. When necessary, they are the ones that correct us when we think or act in a way that negatively impacts our dreams.
The best way to honor our biggest supporters is to never give up and keep driving towards our dreams. The next way we must honor these individuals is to either help them in some way or become a supporter of someone else. Helping others pursue their dreams is the ultimate payback for all those who have helped us along with our journey.
Who has been by your side through many difficult moments in your life?
How have your supporters assisted you in your personal development?
How will you honor your supporters by helping someone else?
Having a support system among friends and family will fuel your goals or dreams forever. It takes a lot for this happen, and that starts with vulnerability and trust. Accepting the support of others is powerful, and that is why we must find opportunities to help others achieve their goals and dreams.
