Why is my life so hard

By M.Farouk Radwan, MSc.

Is your life so hard?

I get many emails from people who complain about how hard their lives are and i don't always blame them because i know life can get tough sometimes. But before you complain about yours as well you gotta listen to this true story.

Silvester was a young man in his early thirties. The guy was so broke that he had to sell his wife's jewelry to pay their basic expenses. Because he was unable to pay for the rent he had to sleep in the streets for 3 days.

Because he had no money to feed his dog he had to sell it for less than 30 dollars even though he loved it so much. He just didn't have enough money to feed it.

His life was hard, miserable and depressing. One day while he was walking he came across a boxing match that inspired him to write a movie script about boxing.

When he submitted his script it was rejected but as he persisted he finally came across someone who wanted to buy his script. In addition he insisted that he becomes the main hero of the movie rocky and this is when Silvester Stallone was born!

How to make your hard life way better

Life can be hard sometimes. no one can deny that. But its these tough moments that can motivate you to change your life to the better. Silvester wasn't lucky but he had certain traits that helped him get out of the hole he was living in and the good news is that you can learn how to have the same traits as well. Here they are:

  • 1) Believing in himself: Even though he had no money to buy food he refused an offer of more than 100,000 dollars to sell his script without being included in the movie. He believed he was the best man to be the star of this movie and he turned out to be right. (see also Believe in yourself to do the impossible)
  • 2) Sheer force of will: Sleeping in the streets can kill the motivation of so many people but Silvester was tough enough to work on his script even though things were really bad. Now compare this to someone who is procrastinating because he isn't feeling good or because he is not in the mood!
  • 3) Not caring about rejections: Silvester was told that he looks funny and talks in a funny way yet he insisted that he becomes the star of the movie. Rejections break the people who don't understand that good people get rejected. Fix your beliefs and rejections won't stop you anymore

Fight to make your life better

When life gets really tough you always have two choices. The first is to do nothing ,remain where you are and to keep sliding down the downward spiral. The second is to admit that life can be tough then start to fight to make it better.

Yes you can get out of this tough life and create a better one but you need to move. Usually the people who stay still find that their problems are increasing and that their lives are getting worse while those who move usually find a way to improve their lives.

In short, if you don't like your life then you should now be moving not complaining. This is the only way out.
