Keep on Moving

In life there are many setback and obstacles put in our path. Some we can control or see coming, some we can’t. In life there will be so many opportunities and times where you think you can’t go any further and feel like giving up on your quest to fulfilling your dream. Well this week I’m here to encourage you to just keep on moving.

When we get a knock back sometimes it becomes hard to see what we should do next as we may have pinned our hopes on getting that job, that scholarship getting on that course etc. And because we pinned all our hopes on that one thing we didn’t stop to think, “What if I don’t get it?” “What am I going to do next?”

With every success or failure it is important to keep on moving. Failures and successes shouldn’t deter you from the path towards achieving your dream. If you experience a failure its up to you to pick yourself up and look at how you can keep moving. Keep on moving could be a case of finding a different course or a different source of funding and keep on moving can be simply putting in more time working on your talent. Every day is precious and the longer we are stopped for the harder it is going to become to achieve your dream.

Keeping on moving won’t guarantee you success but it will put yourself in a position to grab opportunities that are out there. If you keep on moving it will show prospective employers, agents etc. that you are committed to your dream and that you don’t let any setbacks get in your way.

By committing to keep on moving you may find better opportunities out there than the one you just missed out on. You will also be more aware of all the opportunities that are out there so it will help you make better decisions on what paths to follow.

So if you have just received a knock back remember it isn’t the end of the world, dust yourself off and keep on moving by going out there and finding new opportunities. Never stop!

This is such a great way to keep yourself motivated. Personally I have my dreams of being a good music maker one day. After reading this post, it made me realize that I may be on the right path and won't stop doing it. Of course with how the economy is, I try to keep things balanced by working as a part time writer and I don't think there's anything wrong with it because words are also as expressive as music. Hopefully when I have kids, they'd learn to appreciate notes and words the same way I do. I've read about how to introduce creative writing to kids, to make kids value writing and love it. Maybe one day, a kid of mine would be where I am and would like to keep on moving the way I am to chase his dream.

Hi there,

I think this is a great inspirational post. Setbacks and failures can come in many different forms. For example, realizing that your job isn't suited to your skills. Making the decision to quit something can be difficult,but keep on moving is a way for us all to see more opportunities out there for us.

Thanks,
