I have a question for you all.

Have you ever felt like you were mentally and emotionally drained from life? Or slowly starting to lose your motivation to achieve your dreams/goals to make them into your reality? If you have ever been in this place or are currently in this spot now I bet you’ve started to ask yourself, ”How did I get here and what happened to my drive?”

The four-letter word called LIFE is what happened. It’s easy to get distracted, off track or even face minor setbacks when you are met with life challenges and obstacles that appear unexpectedly; it’s like a tiny litmus test to see if you have what it takes to persevere regardless of what cards you are being dealt. In hindsight, it seems obvious as to the reasoning those events happened, but in the moment they could feel earth shattering and ultimately leave you dismayed and finally discouraged. Life is not always going to perfect, but it’s important for us to understand the lesson from ever obstacles we  are face with. I understand that we all come from different backgrounds and face different problems or struggles, but “All power is from within and therefore under our control.” ~Robert Collier

Here are the basic signs that indicate you’re in slumps.

You’ve noticed that you’ve started to become emotionally drained and consumed by your current situation. The positive things in your life such as working towards your goals or your life purpose begin to fade away. Your momentum slows down and without realizing it you start to become doubtful about where you are heading in life. If any of these relate to you at all, don’t beat yourself up. This is a part of life, sometime we get knocked down and we may lose faith in ourselves, but it’s important to pick ourselves up during or after the storm.
