Climbing the steps of confidence

.

The depression moment is something that at one time or another hits anybody. I challenge anybody in the world to come forward and affirm that he or she ignore what sadness or emptiness are. This however is nothing more than a stump common in many voyages. Comparable to a flat tire, it will only slow you down until you decide to do something about it.
Of course, like so many punctures that naturally occur on the road, the speed that we are hurling our vehicle (also known as life… sweet and precious life…) will determine how deep the damage will be when the car finally comes to a stop.
Consequently, a few curse words occur, and then a feeling of fear follows. This agitated state may last from one to a billion seconds before allowing for any decision to be made.
The fear is produced by the unknown, the inability to predict what is the chain of events that will lead us back to the continuous flow of affaires. Our lovely and unique affaires, whatever those may be. Typically, those with a goal in mind, find it easier to activate their motivation hence granting themselves with a resolution to the problem
The moment where we allow ourselves to make a decision, we are a step close her to a solution. Not all the obvious solutions are the adequate ones, but the simplest route might often be the correct one to take.
If there is a depression in the tire, you either repair it or as it most frequently happens, you replace your tire. The purpose being, to have air back on the wheel, that would provide with harmonious balance to carry on with the journey onwards in time.
Our depressions are nothing more than pieces in ourselves in need of repair, greater or smaller depending on the speed that they occur in our lives. Being prepared for a depression or being suddenly assaulted by one are two opposite elements from the same curve. Nonetheless, the solution lies in facing the world with optimism, with the striking confidence that makes a hero in every second.
Climbing the stairs of confidence is not as difficult as it may seem, if only we are ready to admit that something has to be done about it.
Today, I went up a step. I am sure that I will find a shop to get the piece I need to replace in my engine (heart), so that I can make my car (life) move once more towards I ought to be.
