The breakthroughs you are looking for are waiting for you on the other side of courage and boldness. It takes courage to achieve our goals and it's not an easy process yet fulfilling.
In life, we often hear the saying that we get what we deserve. However, this is not always the case. Instead, the reality is that we get what we demand. In other words, what we receive in life is a direct result of what we are willing to assertively and confidently ask for.
It is not enough to simply deserve something or to wait for good things to come our way. We must actively pursue our goals and desires by making clear, concise demands. This means setting clear boundaries and having the courage to speak up when we are not satisfied with a situation. It also means being proactive and not settling for less than we deserve.
For example, if we are unhappy with our current job, we cannot simply sit and wait for a better opportunity to come along. We must actively seek out new job openings and apply for positions that interest us. If we are not receiving the recognition and pay we deserve, we must have a productive conversation with our employer and clearly communicate our value and what we expect in return.
In relationships, we must also be assertive in communicating our needs and desires. This means expressing our expectations and setting boundaries with those we care about. We cannot simply sit back and hope that our partners will guess what we want or need. We must actively communicate and demand what we deserve.
It is important to note that making demands does not mean being rude or demanding. It means being confident, clear, and respectful in our communication. It means being willing to negotiate and finding a mutually beneficial solution.
In summary, the key to getting what we want in life is not just deserving it, but actively demanding it. We must have the courage to communicate our needs, set clear boundaries, and actively pursue our goals. By doing so, we can take control of our lives and receive the happiness and fulfillment that we deserve.
