So what do we need in order to be able to cope with all of this pressure and turmoil, both emotional and physical?
Within all of us are hidden enormous wells of strength which we can call to the fore at times like these. The problem is that so few of us have ever become aware of what we have inside, of what we are truly capable, of who we really are, that we are oblivious to this inner power. We are not islands and we need others to help us through, with support and love, and if we can also tap into our own inner strength this will help us even more.
So sit back and close your eyes and just ask yourself how you have shown strengths in the past....
- Where did you give support to others?
- When did you get through something which was challenging?
- How did you succeed when you thought you would fail?
- What did you do which brought a smile to someones face?
You have given support and strength to others without thinking of it in the past, now think about these times and begin to realise the strengths you possess inside.
