If you have seen lots of failures like me you would know that no matter how worthy you were, it wouldn't mean a thing. All quotes like "We learn from our mistakes", "Leave no stone unturned", "Where there is a will there is a way", "God helps those who help themselves"...etc etc seem to be of no use. You are all done and dusted.
While nothing is working in your favour millions of things run through your mind like the luck factor, astrology, your past, your future. At times you get wrong superstitious beliefs. But some of those beliefs which might have worked previously are not working this time. For example, you change your sleeping positions, wear better stones and gems for luck basically you try to turn the tables by changing the environment by turning your house upside down, into a better one.
We start wearing/keeping our "lucky" things handy. I am sorry; no, not working. Our poor brain is literally drained with lots of overthinking.
The worst happens now you are scared of dreaming because all your dreams have been shattered.
There is an immense amount of regret. When you no longer have any tears to shed. With no fault of your own, things are bitterly awful.
It is now the worst nightmares to even look at your future let alone about dreaming one.
The bigger question "What should be done in this situation?"
1. Don't go down that memory lane- Let go the past both good and bad. Reason for doing this is simply the horror it brings in. Always remember 'This too shall pass" doesn't always brings happiness or sadness in particular.
2. How will you do that?
Not telling you to dream because after a phase it is genuinely difficult. But do control your brain, everything is in there. Do not let it give up and pictures work best in this scenario. Start with something simple imagine; waterfalls, rainbows, forests, baby animals. It will make you happy even if only for a while.
Play with little kids and puppies and kittens. Help others in need, could be monetary/ non-monetary.
Talk to the elderly.
Doing some of these simple things will get your brain to function well. Who knows, you might even get back your lost confidence.
3. Stay strong and optimistic- Something can scare you only till the time you don't fight back. If your mind is showing you darkness in the future fill in the image with colours. And do this each time it happens. After practising this for a while it will stop haunting you.
Thinking in this manner will allow you a whole new perspective on the circumstances.
4. At the end of the day, it is a fact of life and we should be able to deal with it. Might sound cliche but yet again pay no heed to negatives. These are common experiments that still cry out for understanding.
5. Let life throw lemons at you, taste it and move on. After all, it is the surprise factor that runs the show. Everything cannot go right at all times. I know if you are a person like me you instantly thought, 'Its rubbish because in my life nothing goes right ever.'
Trust me had it been true you wouldn't have been born at all. Everybody has a purpose in life. About which, some might have known their's while others still need to look for it.
6. About right things at the right time
Our life is not a 2 hours movie that we can know the twists, turns, and happy ends. But I can explain your life surprises in a different fashion using an example of snakes and ladders. We all have played it during our childhood days. And I am sure everyone remembers there are two types of players.
Type 1. He/she could easily throw 6 in the initial tries only. His/her piece used to start moving super quick while there is
Type 2. who couldn't get 6 even after several trials. And look none of us has ever counted the number of trials.
When the type 2 player is scared he is going to loose there comes a twist when super quick player 's counter landed on a snake and he slid down. By this time Type 2 could finally get 6 to get started. He gets really slow moves. Lands on different snakeheads too.
While the super quick player has reached 99 all set to win. He knows one strike and obviously, he will be the winner. On the other hand, the player like us is still struggling but suddenly he gets the biggest ladder count and reaches at 99 too, eventually gets a quick 1 to win the game.
This is how our life runs. Snakes ladders you have to face but who is going to be the winner is unpredictable.
There is a plot which leads to good things at the end with the right amount of patience. If you are reading this I am sure now you will never think of your future to be in dark rather replace the darkness with our dear board game.
