As I am a woman of unwavering faith and great resilience, what I use as a gauge to identify if I should continue fighting for something is to identify if that takes away my peace.
On many occasions life challenges us. We experience difficult events while we are on the way to our goals. It is at that moment that we must learn to discern whether they are signs or tests that we receive in order to overcome them and achieve what we strive for so much.
In my opinion, most of the time they are tests and do not indicate what we have to pass. For example, there are people who, if they are going to carry out a process, whether studying a career, getting a job, traveling, fighting for a love relationship, buying a property, they think that if there are obstacles along the way they should not continue forward. .
We forget that life is not easy, and neither are many processes. That’s where perseverance, resilience, and determination come in.
But you also have to know how to distinguish why things are worth continuing to try. As I am a woman of unwavering faith and great resilience, what I use as a gauge to identify if I should continue fighting for something is to identify if that takes away my peace.. If it takes away my peace, it is almost certain that this process is not worth living through. Of course, the importance of this process in your life must be determined in its proper perspective.
I recently had an experience where I can give you an example of what happens when there are obstacles in the way of dreams.
Through my international real estate companyEirene Group Real Estate, I had agreed with one of my investors to negotiate land to build beachfront vacation villas in the Dominican Republic. We spent a long time waiting for them to send us the authenticity documents for the land, among others. Once we managed to meet, I identified that those people who had made the process impossible for us for so long did not have the title to the property, nor had they paid the taxes.
That is, they did not have two of the essential requirements to be able to work with that terrain. In the process, both my partner and I were determined to obtain the land. I thought they were tests that I had to pass. However, in this case it is the other way around, they were signs that the business was not suitable for us.
That gave way to taking advantage of other land offers already ready to build vacation villas. In this case, the situation was already taking away my peace. I said enough. There are other options right under my nose that I didn’t see because I was so focused on something that had no future.
On other occasions, the vast majority, have been tests that I have managed to overcome and have seen amazing results in my personal and professional life.
I invite you to consider carefully when you feel that the process is not so easy. Make use of your determination and persistence, but at the same time identify if that takes away your peace. Your heart will know how to tell you the path to take.
