Trying and karma

[Olaf]

I think I will just use this forum to express my thoughts. If someone gets some value from it thats awesome. I think that sometimes trying is enough. To get to a certain goal, you don't need some miracle, you don't necessarily need luck, I feel that you can achieve most goals simply by trying. The only problem is that you might not understand what trying is. Trying isn't trying one time, trying the same thing a thousand times, its about trying in every possible way for a long long period of time. Trying is actually trying, like what if you actually tried to atleast achieve one goal this year. Look at your list of goals and just pick one, and really really try every single day till your absolutely tired and exhausted. The periods of my life where I really try, I am busy with it day and night in fact I even dream about it, only then you know you are really locked in, when every night your dreams are about the goal. Your even trying in your dreams hahaha. And also sometimes you then try and you fail, maybe fail awfully, but then after that bad day, you wake up the next day and you try again and then almost like karma you get what you put back into it.

Now putting your mind to it is one thing, putting action behind it, using both your mind, inspiration from others that have succeeded at your goal aswell as your own action that is what I call trying. Trying is waking up, giving it your all with no idea if you get anything back in return, its a certain level of faith, your not getting angry when it doesn't workout, you just trust in the process.

That when you try, you really try, you don't say you try, you don't complain how you tried and failed, you don't get angry why your not getting your way, no you ACTUALLY try. You put all that positive energy into one direction, into one goal, if its for a month, a year or longer, at some point you will see all of that hard work being paid off. You couldn't do it by hard work alone, you needed time to think, you needed to look at others succeeding at it, you needed everything from your body, from your mind, from others, you really really tried, then I don't believe you can fail. So look at your goals for this year, pick one goal and then ask yourself, have you really tried? Have you given it all you got?  Because often times, its just about getting up and trying again so many times till karma or something can't ignore you anymore. Your "lucky" days are on the other side of waking up day after day trying. Good luck!
