The world is filled with people who have wonderful ideas which are worth sharing and realizing for the highest good of humanity. It is filled with people who have talents, gifts, capabilities which are not yet discovered and soon will be taken to the grave because the very same people do not show case these dreams, talents, gifts and capacities.
It is quite disturbing to everyday see people suffer in life while knowing that everybody at birth was given a genius, greatness and richness. The most common reason which makes those who are suffering suffer is because they compare what they can do with what they are not here to do. In order words, they trade their natural talents to what people wants them to do. What I am trying to say in that, they go through life not developing their natural talents but developing what the Big man wants them to do.

The True definition of environment

In my previous blog post I wrote about the true definition of an environment and how it affects a person’s heart desire and how it will forever affect the way he accumulates riches, wealth or anything he wants in life. Some people are meant to be loved, some dreams are meant to be pursued and some blog post are meant to be read, and that is the blog post about environment. "how is my environment affecting my heart desires"
In this one I want to share with you 17 reasons why people never get ahead in life and will forever fall behind unless they decide to make changes in their lives and I deeply hope you are not one of them.

What you need to do.

Please think as you read these reasons and if you find that you fall into one or more of the reasons make sure that you take necessary action to deal with that.
When you are hungry you seek food, when you are cold you seek heat and when you are weak you seek strength. Therefore when you find that out of the 17 reasons stated here are affecting your life you might want to get help because if you don’t they will forever drag you down and constant cause a delay in the things you want in life.

Let get down to business

Let me say cross down the reasons which affect your life and live those which do not and I will provide a score rate at the end of them to see whether are you falling behind or getting ahead to achieve your dreams. Remember that at any particular point in time you are either flowing towards the realization of your dreams or flowing farther away from them. And that will be determined at the end of these reasons. Remember cross down those which affect and influence your life and live those which do not.

The 17 reasons are as follows:

Reason #1 Lack of vision.
Dreams are seen with minds eyes not eyesight. If you see your dream with your eyes, that signifies trouble.
Reason #2 Lack of clarity
Clarity is to know exactly what you want or what you want to do.
Reason #3 Not being Decisive
Failing to decide to realize your dreams or anything you want is the number one traveled road to mediocrity.
Reason #4 Bad environment
Having friends, associates, thoughts, conversation and all that which are not directly contributing to want you want.
Reason #5 Lack of courage
Courage is derived from the French word “Le Couer” meaning heart. Therefore if you don’t act from the heart, you don’t have courage.
Reason #5 Lack of persistence
Napoleon says if you are to achieve your dreams but you don’t have persistence. You are definitely defeated before you even start.
Reason #6 Fear of failure.
When you fear to fail on what you want, you also fail to get feedback about your life because failure is just feedback saying something needs to be fixed so as you may start wisely next time.
Reason #7 Fears of critics
A dog does bark a standing car but barks on a moving car, so critics are symbolizing that you are doing something, so then why be afraid of them.
Reason #8 Lack of action
If you want to drink water (desire) you have to go to the kitchen and get yourself a glass of water (achieved). For some reason people tend to think it is difficult to do the same with fulfilling dreams and never take action.
Reason #9 Seeking approval before you start
Always wanting everyone to love your ideas, if they don’t you don’t do anything, end up hating the thought.
Reason # 10 Love comfort
Never dedicate or make a choice to let go of things of lower nature to achieve things of higher nature.
Reason #11 Want some else to do what you have to do.
Always seeking for other people’s effort to do what you alone can do. I do not know whether it’s laziness or what.
Reason #12 Forever choosing the easy way out.
Courageous people do things the hard way, but cowards will always want to do want is easy and soft.
Reason #13 Easily influenced by opinions not fact.
Opinions are the cheapest commodities on earth, a winner or loser has an opinion to give to someone who is easily influenced by what is not valid or what is not a fact.
Reason #14 Always looking for a difficult in every opportunity
Pessimistic people will always and always be negative about what is clearly positive and try to give unsound reasons why it is negative while everyone else can see that it is positive.
Reason #15 Lack of faith
Faith determines how long a person is going to realize his dreams, therefore low faith always equate to long realization of dreams and sometimes for dreams not to be realized because faith builds a relationship between what you want (dream) and the source with cause a realization of your dreams (God).
Reason #16 Lack of Gratitude.
A grateful soul live in closer touch with its source and an ungrateful soul live out of touch with it source. Therefore, if the grateful soul wants wealth, the more it gives gratitude for wealth when it doesn’t have wealth it is the more the source of wealth provides the soul because the source lives in harmony and closer touch with the source wealth. In short, failure to give gratitude is causing dreams to have wings and fly away from you.
Reason # 17 Wanting to be perfect before you can start
Nothing was perfect from the beginning but everything was perfect at the end of creation. That is why practice is important.

Then what?

Okay, these are the 17 reasons why people don’t achieve their dreams. There might be more or less but these ones give the picture or the blueprint. So now count your crosses if you do not have any; cheers to you and how dedicated are you in achieving your dreams so as you become a better human being who wants other beings to be best.
The below score rate will tell you whether are you flowing towards your dreams or away
• You can now count your crosses and check how close or far are you to realize your dreams
(14-17)Chances of achieving your dreams and success are very low, you need to do something with your life because it means you are just here and you live farther away from the truth. There is no life in your dreams. You are just far away from living a better life.
(8-13) If you belong to this category. Know that you are warm, not cold or hot. It can be either you are working towards fulfilling your dreams or you are comfortable and the danger part of it is that you might soon be on the above category and be doomed. But let’s hold thumbs up high and hope you are moving towards the realization of your dreams.
(0-7) You are the best! You know what you want in life and you move in accordance with the law. And if you keep on keeping on with this phase and build momentum because momentum is positive energy itself, you will be reaping rich crops when harvest comes and that’s if you are not currently getting your rewards.

Keep the reasons low

They say your past success doesn’t guarantee future success, meaning that every chance in your life you get, it is other opportunity to grow and develop yourself to become better every day. The reason I am saying all this is because I want you and me to grow and develop ourselves every day so as we keep the above reasons or cross rate as low as possible so as we persistently and forever flow towards the realization of our dreams, because whenever we flow towards what we want, what we want also flows towards us.
