Encouragement

Encouragement can be described in many different ways. There are those who feel the need to encourage by word of mouth, those who encourage with a gentle push in the right direction, those who encourage with a hand to help you up, and last but not least, the form that allows you to come to a self-realization prior to which you were unaware. The form I feel is most beneficial is the ability to allow someone to change their perspective on a given situation with a simple gesture of faith. “You can do it, I believe in you, I am here for you”. In doing such we allow for someone to regain their sense of purpose, their subconscious human desire to do something great regardless of how major or miniscule it may seem to anyone else but themselves. Priority lies within the individual on what may be important, more so lies the perennial dictum “I can do anything that I put my mind to”. Do we always believe in such? Is there a driving force among humanity that employs the universal aspiration to achieve great things? What drives the individual, and more importantly what fuels the journey from start to finish. That answer is simply encouragement. For every 100 ideas a person has, there may be one that someone will comment is a “good idea” that simple reassurance negates 99 ideas worth of wasted time and allows for the individual to feel warranted in their pursuits. Self-worth simply put is acceptance of what one is capable of, and with encouragement, human potential is boundless in its infinite endeavors.

Take care of each other and lend a hand once in a while!
