Success

Have you ever experienced that feeling? When you know something is going to happen. Something that will change your life. Even though you honestly cannot determine whether the outcome will be a downturn or an uprising. That feeling of playing jump rope with the fine line of anxiety and excitement.

Jump rope? I use this as an example for a couple reasons. Let us say 'anxiety' is on the left and 'excitment' is on the right. If you put your mind to it, you can stop on either side of the rope. Same goes for reality, if you put your mind to it you can choose which feeling to feel, wouldn't you agree?

Life has constantly given this feeling to us, correct? Somehow, we don't handle that feeling in the same fashion as we would have in a previous situation. Is it because of the situation? the results? the opinions? Surprisingly, all those aspects play a deciding role on whether we could succeed or fail. In the end, all those aspects could easily be overcome by your decision. I am surprised that we, as human beings, have yet to figure out when to let anxiety or excitement take over the situation.

Success is almost solely dependent on the jump rope of anxiety and excitement. Which side will you end up landing in to?
