You know, where everything just feels bleak, and your thoughts start to become filled with worry or anxiety as the setbacks and challenges just keep coming? I get it. I think we’ve all been there before, and that can leave us feeling like we might never achieve those dreams, get that promotion, land that gig, or accomplish that goal.n n </span> n </p> n <p style=”line-height: 1.38;”> n <span style=”display: initial;”> n <br/> n n What if I told you that there IS hope? That even in this time that feels so challenging or hopeless, your spark – that idea, dream, goal, or passion inside of you – can stay lit. Keep reading for my top 5 strategies to keep your spark alive in even the most challenging seasons!n n </span> n </p> n <p style=”line-height: 1.38;”> n <span style=”color: rgb(249, 30, 165); font-weight: 700; display: initial;”> n <br/> n n 1. Remind yourself it won’t be this way forevern n </span> n </p> n <p style=”line-height: 1.38;”> n <span style=”display: initial;”> n n It can be so easy when we’re in the thick of challenging times to believe that they will last forever. I am here to tell you that just like seasons in nature change with time, so too do all seasons of life. Spring is coming. If you need to, take a moment to pause, to breathe, and tell yourself (out loud!) that this time won’t last forever. You will make it through. Remind yourself of times in the past where you overcame challenges or setbacks, and let that motivate you to keep moving forward. You will make it through.n n </span> n </p> n <p style=”line-height: 1.38;”> n <span style=”font-weight: 700; display: initial;”> n <br/> n </span> n <span style=”font-weight: 700; display: initial; color: rgb(249, 30, 165);”> n n 2. Nurture your passionn n </span> n </p> n <p style=”line-height: 1.38;”> n <span style=”display: initial;”> n n Sometimes when we’re feeling unmotivated, lost, or discouraged in the pursuit of our dreams, we need to remind ourselves why we had that dream in the first place. I’d encourage you to take a step back from the logistics and the hustle of every day and make space to reignite your passions, dreams, and creative side. Take an art class. Watch a documentary about a topic you find fascinating. Engage with a hobby you’ve neglected recently. Try something new. The bottom line is, let yourself indulge in the things that bring your soul to life, and you just might find that your dream is being nurtured or fanned back into flame again too.n n </span> n </p> n <p style=”line-height: 1.38;”> n <span style=”font-weight: 700; display: initial;”> n <br/> n </span> n <span style=”font-weight: 700; display: initial; color: rgb(249, 30, 165);”> n n 3. Invite others into your journeyn n </span> n </p> n <p style=”line-height: 1.38;”> n <span style=”display: initial;”> n n One of the surest ways a dream can die when we are in a challenging season of life is by isolating ourselves from others. If you’re feeling discouraged, you need to get some people to speak life into you again! Call a friend, a family member, a mentor, or a coach. Share with them exactly what you’re feeling and what obstacles or challenges you’re having, and let them help you come up with solutions, encourage you, or speak life back into you and your dreams! We cannot achieve anything alone, and reclaiming our spark is sometimes as simple as letting others into our lives.n n </span> n </p> n <p style=”line-height: 1.38;”> n <span style=”font-weight: 700; display: initial;”> n <br/> n </span> n <span style=”font-weight: 700; display: initial; color: rgb(249, 30, 165);”> n n 4. Make a visual reminder of your visionn n </span> n </p> n <p style=”line-height: 1.38;”> n <span style=”display: initial;”> n <span style=”display: initial;”> n n Creating a vision board or other visual reminder of what we hope to achieve can be a great way to nurture our passion in difficult situations. Go grab some arts and crafts supplies and create something that makes you excited about your dreams. You can include pictures, quotes that inspire you, lists of your goals, orn n </span> n </span> n <span style=”display: initial; font-style: italic;”> n <span style=”display: initial; font-style: italic;”> n n anythingn n </span> n </span> n <span style=”display: initial;”> n n that reminds you of what you want and why those things are important to you. Then, put it up somewhere you’ll see it every day – so you can be reminded daily why you work so hard and what you’re working for.n n </span> n </p> n <p style=”line-height: 1.38;”> n <span style=”font-weight: 700; display: initial;”> n <br/> n </span> n <span style=”font-weight: 700; display: initial; color: rgb(249, 30, 165);”> n n 5. Speak life over your dreamsn n </span> n </p> n <p style=”line-height: 1.38;”> n <span style=”display: initial;”> n n Finally, sometimes we need to speak life over ourselves and our dreams to reignite our spark. Instead of saying to yourself “this is impossible” or “I’ll never figure this out” when you encounter a challenge or setback, try flipping that to say “this obstacle is going to challenge me, but I am capable of working through it.” Remind yourself daily that your dreams are worth working hard for and that you are worthy of achieving success. n n </span> n </p> n <p style=”line-height: 1.38;”> n <span style=”display: initial;”> n <br/> n n We all journey through seasons that are challenging, but you have the power to choose to not be overcome by this hard season. Make some space to reconnect with what you love and are passionate about, speak some life over your dreams, and invite other people into this journey. If you keep persevering through the challenges, your dreams and goals will become a reality!n n </span> n <span style=”font-weight: 700; display: initial;”> n <br/> n </span> n <span style=”display: initial;”> n <br/> n </span> n </p> n</div> n<div style=”transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out 0s;” data-rss-type=”text”> n <p style=”line-height: 1.5;”> n <span style=”display: unset; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(249, 14, 159);”> n n Wait!
