Do you know where discouragement comes from?!

>Discouragement is feeling far from where you want to be. Just picture someone who's looking for water in the desert, and not been able to see anything except the harsh desert terrain for thousand of miles in every direction looked at. Such person is boulder. to feel discouraged about finding water an even their chances of survival, the reason behind this is because of how far away they are from it. Life could sometimes feel just the same way. You have probably had a long streak of the wrong results and you feel very much discouraged that you with the fact that you are so far away from the person you want to become and even the results you so desire. I guess we have all been there here at some point in time, but there’s an answer. **The Secret to Instant Encouragement** _{![images (27).png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSZYak2YeSpaUodsfU7fo3r8vTbjK2zvRw4WguKNdnZPD/images%20(27).png)} _{[Image Source](https://www.google.com.ng/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.cdn-sc.com%2Fusers%2Fdefault-avatar.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sermoncentral.com%2Fsermons%2Fhow-to-stay-encouraged-in-these-day-s-phil-dyar-sermon-on-what-is-evangelism-68086&docid=PqdgMsoZX5fKGM&tbnid=iBcdD6qdmyylqM%3A&vet=10ahUKEwif4t20rdHbAhXyp1kKHZgaDH8QMwhtKDAwMA..i&w=250&h=250&client=ms-android-transsion&bih=1416&biw=980&q=Stay%20encouraged&ved=0ahUKEwif4t20rdHbAhXyp1kKHZgaDH8QMwhtKDAwMA&iact=mrc&uact=8)} Is there any difference between you and the lost person who's seeking water in the desert?! Well, Yes! They cannot see water, this is because there isn’t any water close-by, but while you might not see near-term success, it’s actually very close to you and very much within your reach. In order to always stay encouraged, you would need to cognize the fact that success is just right next to you. But how is that done?! Bear in mind that this isn’t just some motivational plea for you to chase after your dreams. It’s actually a fact. Success exists on so many levels, so just as it might be true that you are very far away from that particular result which takes time to achieve, you are never too far away from those success today. The latter is found to be more or less encouraging on these two levels: * The feeling of quick or immediate success and * The very knowledge that a successful life is as a result of a compilation of successful days. Who gets to feel discouraged about not exercising enough while exercising? If anyone is going to feel discouraged, it's not about not doing something, it won’t be even be while you are doing it. Little steps could bring constant encouragement, but not when you practice them mindlessly. You could practice little steps and yet still feel discouraged if you are unable to see them in the big picture. They are just like any other tool, those who get the very best out of them know just when to and how exactly to use them. **One Small Step brings about Four Success** Four areas automatically changes the moment you take a step in a new direction. They are: * *Forward Momentum* * *Increased Motivation* * *A Chance for Engagement* * *Improved Mood* The above mentioned four powerful engines of success are literally just one step away from you at every given point in time. If you do not take that one step, you would get zero from them all. The margin which lies between success and failure, then, is so little that just simply leaning in one direction could just be all that it takes to birth a massive shift in your daily and even long-term results. You really do not have to conquer the world in a single day. Just lean towards the behaviors that matters and you would achieve just more than you had expected. ![12.gif](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmYzVdyC7JSyLdekKporR1CNLbYquWePQPZjGBSiV1y3Zk/12.gif) *Right now, am not talking about some sort of slight success or the minor kind of failures, am talking about major success and major failure. The very moment you understand why exactly massive results come from the smallest decisions, choices and movements made over time, the and only then would you be able to see that we are at all times very close to success; although it might not seem so, but then it's there, even if we can’t see it.* _{**Thanks For Reading
