All That Was Was a Setback by:Ted Ciuba
Recently, I spoke with a young lady who had a story that was so important that I just had to share it with you
. Here's what she had to say:
What happens if you know exactly what you want, you've got a burning desire, you're enthusiastic, and things start to happenand then they slip away? For instance, in my situation, Oprah's people had asked me to do a radio show with them and for them. And it was exciting; I mean, it was incredible. The General Manager and the Program Director were on board.
This was a dream come true! I've seen this, it's on my vision board, and here it is, ready to happenand then both of them get fired, at the exact same time, due to budget cutbacks, or whatever
I still talk to them through Facebook, and still have good connections with them, but in a business sense, it's not happening
But there you go! It's interesting; I've had a variety of different slips. In other words, you get really, really close, and then it doesn't quite manifest.
For the first time, I've lost a little bit of confidenceand I've never been one to ever lose my confidence. Doubt is creeping in, and I'm like, "Oh, you've got to be kidding me!" Sometimes it's hard to get right back up and start the dream over again. I'm wondering: am I on the right path? Because things keep slipping, just a little bit.
Now, I wanted to speak to this because it's a pretty common phenomenon. When something like this happens, it's time to go back and retool, because somewhere along the way you forgot everything it was that drove you originally. You need to go back and pull out your original affirmations and start saying them again. You start meditating again, you start visualizing, you start thinking about contributing to the world. If you don't have faith, you build it back up!
So you're doing a repair job. And in some ways, it requires more the second time, because you know how close you were, you know what you had, and you know what you don't have now.
But the reality of the matter (and again, this is part of the philosophy) is that there is a rhythm, and there are setbacks that come to everybody. We don't cause them all, but we do cause most of them.
Either way, we still have the response-ability to continue with our dreams, to hold onto our visions. If you're committed to getting on Oprah, as this young lady is, then what happened wasn't the end of the world All that was was a setback.
