Sometimes we need rest in our lives when we are pursuing our life goals and objectives. When things aren't going well the way we desire, a little time off would be a good idea and when we get back on track, we might have a breakthrough.

If everything that we seek to achieve in life always work out the way that we want it, then there's a likelihood that we shouldn't be suffering again in this world. This is the situation that we are into as you can see that there are people that have succeeded in life after making a whole lot of attempts to achieve that.

You shouldn't be feeling depressed at this point in your life as long as you are still doing the things that will bring the great success to you. The only thing that you should do is to try and adjust in many ways while assessing the efforts that you've made to achieve the success. Also, try to check out the things that successful people have been doing to achieve this success and follow suit. This is one of the ways that you can improve as well.

Life isn't a bed of roses and life comes with full package of the good,bad and the ulgy don't always expect goodness all the time.What keeps us down all the time and maybe depress like in your own case is wanting everything go our own way and maybe instantly too.please snap out of depression and always remember you still have your life ahead of you.


There's time for everything says the holy book. That goal you had expected to achieved might just be in it's formative stage and not yet ripe for harvesting, trying to harvest it now might just bring pains and bad feelings, so don't give up keep moving with it.
So my advice is to hold on you will soon achieve it,you can try restrategizing and use a different step and see if it will work this time around.Good luck.

The only stage where you would find yourself and it's alright to give up would be in the grave six feet under. Those that are dead are the ones who are obligated to give up because there is nothing else left for them to do since they are already dead.


But as long as you are alive and still breathing and not seriously ill and hospitalized, you are not supposed to give up or feel depressed simply because you are finding things more difficult and hard to achieve your goals and objectives in life.
One thing that I can tell you vehemently is that life is not fair no matter how anyone looks at it. If you are not born into a wealthy family that have the financial resources to push you up, just expect that you will find life very difficult but if you don't give up, your success will definitely come one day.

Naturally as human our wants are unlimited so do our goals we keep aiming to achieve certain things even at old age until death take charge however,  there are certain situations that one needs to rethink or re- strategies because if you keep pursuing a particular thing and you are not succeeding in it, it is either you are not putting enough effort to achieve it, or you are giving in the best approach to it or God does not destined it for you.
It is fundamental to believe that what cannot be cure must be endure. It is good for you to relax,  give such goal a long term break,  think of other meaningful things that will make you happy for a longer time and feeling of fulfillment, when next you want to revisit such goal always believe if is good for you there will be successful but if otherwise be ready to bear it and move on.

Such is life! Sometimes you win and other times you lose. But because you lose doesn't make you a loser, except you see yourself to be so. You should learn that it doesn't always go as we planned in life. Sometimes disappointment becomes inevitable, especially in your case you've practiced tenaciously, and yet, things didn't still work out as intended.

There is this general adage that "he who fights and runner away live to fight another day." Because you achieving your goal as at now didn't come to fruition doesn't mean if you try again someday, you would not nail it. In addition, because you failed in realizing you goal for now is not a reason for you to despair. Instead of been discouraged and be wallowing in self-pity, get yourself motivated and keep your hopes up, believing that whatever that made this your goal to fail is a blessing in disguise, and that bigger opportunities lie ahead on the horizon, if only you still have undying determination to give it a try once again.

In life we have so many things we would like to achieve, there are those that will pave through, and there are those that will be stagnant. You start but you cannot move forward or go backwards. The thing is in life we will all go through trials and tribulations. Nothing good comes on a silver platter, and if it did it will definitely explode at some point. When sometging doean't go away, or we are not able to meet our goals, that shouldn't make us feel like failures, and that we should just give up. Troubles make us stronger and wiser so just get up dust yourself up and get moving, be focused and positive you will make it. This is because you will be more wiser and do the same thing differently and yield good reaults. It takes time but it's well worth it.

Just continue to dream even if you fall hard a lot of times, remember why you even started, remember what you have at the moment for not giving up. Rest a little, but never ever give up on what your heart desires. Just be patient, and your patience and determination will paid off.

We all go through the same path, the principle of successful people is keep trying.  When you give up easily, you never can tell if that was the effort that would have yielded the result. Never give  up but learn from your mistakes, examine the reason behind your failure and try again.

Maybe it is not the right time for you.

Just don't forget to always believe in your self, don't lose hope.

And maybe the other reason you are not able to reach your Goal is you are practicing it. Don't practice your Goal, just be ready on it.

As they said, "Practice is the best teacher." It means we need to keep on practicing to achieve personal goals in life. Life will not end if committing any failures along the journey. Why we experience failures? The reason is that we need more space to improve.

It's not bad to have a break, although you haven't reached your goal yet, just be thankful because you've done so many things for it already and be grateful that you've already done so far. Be back in it if you already earned the guts to strive again

Don't be depressed because it's alright to fail.

Remember this you fail 100 times and get up 101 times so there is no question of giving up.

Trust yourself and trust God and just keep on striving harder this time you will definitely reach your goal.

Sometimes that's how life is, these failures are steping stones to our success, so if you fail to achieve one don't let that one tier you apart, or else you won't be able to achieve the rest.

The first thing you should do is to take a step back and recognize that you have put in a lot of effort and hard work. It can be very discouraging when goals are not achieved, but it is important to remember that this is part of the process and that failure is a part of success.

Take some time to reflect on what you have learned from this experience, what you could have done differently, and what you can do to better prepare for the next time.

It is also important to give yourself some self-compassion. Acknowledge your hard work and effort, and don't be too hard on yourself for not achieving your goal. Remind yourself that everyone experiences setbacks and it is ok to not always succeed.

For some extra help in managing your depression, consider talking to a mental health professional or using a mental health support app. These can be great resources to help you process your emotions and find healthier ways to cope.

It's okay to feel disappointed after not achieving a goal. Allow yourself time to process your emotions, reflect on what you've learned, and try again.

There are a few things you can do to work through your current depression:

-First, try to engage in some self-care activities - such as spending time in your bedroom, reading, or taking a bath - to help soothe and relief the pain that is caused by living with depression.

-You may also want to consider seeking professional help if you find that you are not getting the support you need from your family or friends.

-You are also important to your self-esteem if you are feeling down and feel like you cannot be content with your current situation. It is important to remember that you are not alone and there is someone else who is feeling the same thing, so try to key in on what you want to do and see if the energy you believe is possible.
