when much younger of age, truly my life has no direction. even i applied for a job and got hired, i gave up easily and stop working. been to many places. to find my luck but it was become unsuccessful. i found myself always turning and going home always. i applied work abroad once as a domestic helper and that did not work too. i was there for eight months only. i remember my friend as she said this to me, "girl, that place is dubai. a much far place compared to the places you went yourselves in the past. maybe you will think of going home again. make it up till the last day of your two years contract because you cannot get home as easy as what you think it is." but as i decided to go home because of some conflict, my boss told me that,[i] "do not come back here again with this kind of work position. go and get a good education then apply in this country again with different kind of work because what you applied does not suits yourself. and that you can do more better than this." [/i] i understand him for that because i know what to do when i finished my contract in there but indefinitely an unsuccessful one. so as i got home back in the country, i applied a work and was hired. so i decided to pursue into another course in education. and now i am a graduating student. hope to make it till end. well, the one pursue me to become successful is my own will and dream with the support of my mom and siblings especially my brother that answered all my tuition fees for need to stop from my job because it is being required by time. i also asked guidance from God, i know the taken path was being HIS plan that is why i was not able to succeed during my past few years in life because He wanted me this way and so thankful about that. what about you comrades, who are your inspiration in life to strive harder?

of course, you can get a help from your love ones like your parents, siblings, or partner in love, friends, relatives and such. i can consider them as the way being given to God or set by Him to aim our goal and to be successful in life. no one is an island that is why, when we were born in this earth, our mother tends our needs by dressing us, giving us foods, bathing us, nurturing us, disciplining, loving until we grow to adulthood. life is a cycle at that. even if we grew bigger and older, we still need our love ones more our parents as our confidante in life if we have problems and they are the first persons mostly being given and offered triumphs as we succeed to everything in life. thanks to you :)

i guess God has plans to each one of us. a piece of advice dear that, pray always for guidance because surely God is always there and He will not betray anyone of us. what to do is just call Him name and right away He will come to your aid. sometimes when our wish or prayer did not happened, just try to understand that we cannot have all of it because God knows that thing is not good for us to have. or sometimes we need to wait for it to happened because there is always a good timing for everything.

right at that. everyone of us has a role and so as we have a thing that is meant for us to happened and to have it in our lives. the best thing, as i kept on saying this, even failed God most of the times, is that call His presence and He will listen to you. learn how to wait and be submissive to what it should be. for each one of us have something that is meant for us. that is why we have failures because we are not in the right track of our lives and one reason is that we are given trials through failures to test our faith to the Lord and our tolerance to the problem. it is our strength as well and that if we won, it made us more stronger. if same problems will occur in time, we know how to solve it because we had been into this kind of burden in our life before and we could know what to do about it to solve it. thanks for responding your thoughts in here :O)

let me share this to you, maybe it would be a good source of information but if you think its useless, then discard it and forget about it. what i can say is that, know your capacity first, on what you like to do, what you can do. consider your feelings about this. if you are a student, study harder and have focus. choose an appropriate course. me, it took so long to select a course on what is right for me. but you know what, let God be the center of everything you like to do. entrust everything to HIM and He'll do the rest. ask guidance from Him. hope you pick some ideas for yourself.

I am honestly think that the main ingredient of success is 'passion' and I am happy for you that you've found it in your journey. I see many people take longer time and way farther to find their passion so I can say you are one of few. Good luck with your future endeavor.

yes mate, passion to reach your goal. passion of interest, and of your dream motivates you to work harder and do necessary things rightly for the accomplishment of what you are dreaming. aside from the desire to win your dreams to success, initialized your feelings too with a fervent hope and positive thoughts that even how hard your trials would be along the way, your decisiveness to obtained your goals will be soon be achieved. pray to God always for He knows what is the best for us to have and He is the one who will replenish our dreams. for God is wonderful. thanks to you for sharing your thoughts about achieving your dreams to come to triumph... t:)

well, i enrol myself in the city hall for householding and after that it is the admin who helped us applied on a certain agency. we applied easily because we are being prioritized by them because we were being endorsed in manila. before i got there, i already had a working visa and the work is already waiting for me. why not try to apply to any agency in your place. then the agency will assists you on everything. here in the philippines, the agency i applied offered free passport processing, lodging and if applying domestic works; no tuition fees required if you applied in arab countries. try to ask informations in there maybe it will work.

then go and get a degree. but first, think what you want to do and what kind of work you can have after finishing a degree if it is related to your desire. because mine is education, i honestly dislike teaching as my profession that is why the contour to success takes long because i do not want this at first. but then as i greatly realized that it made any sense because i began to like this profession as i teaches ict in high school. and that my wrong perceptions about teaching were so wrong. well, as a teacher you should study each one of your students behaviour. do not allow them to belittle you so that they will not intimidate you that soon they will going to disrespect you at a point they will not going to listen and to obey you. be friendly as well, but avoid favouritism. always put a limit for some reservations purposes. oh now, if you are in your way to finish a degree, make it good and strive harder for it. pray always to God for guidance and blessings. but if you are about to have your degree, kneel and ask what kind of degree should it be that is appropriate to your skill and interest. good luck!

I am in complete agreement with your discussion headline. You are the first one to know what you actually want. What makes you happy and what will actually make you successful. Now by successful I do not mean money. Successful is a relative word. Being happy is what successful really mean. You know what makes you successful or rather on a better note happy. Also as you very correctly mentioned, aim higher. You should not find yourself cursing over what you have already achieved just because you want to achieve more then. Finalize it before hand and work in that direction to achieve it.

thanks for elaborating the discussion more. let me add some more on what you stated above is that: our plans were nothing if not being blessed by God. it is He who knows first thing first. He is the director and we are the actors. everything is under control. what we need to do first is that, pray and have hope and faith. the occurrences of things will just follow smoothly and triumphantly. that is the work of God. no mess, no forgetfulness - everything is being refined and flow normally to its path and phase. thanks mate :O)

all you have is to pray for guidance. submit your total self or be submissive to what it should happened in your life according to your dreams. trust in the Lord that He will give you peace of mind to think things over. i am sharing this virtues to you because it is the first thing i did as take a leap towards aiming my success to be called. it was not easy as that because i am so vulnerable. it is hard to have faith when you failed plenty of times until one day i understood what God wanted in me. glorify HIS name and leave the rest of your lives for your happiness and success thanks :)
