In today’s post I’ve decided to make it a bit more personal
and share some of my thoughts, beliefs and motivation. I believe that we learn
as long as we’re alive and we should never settle for something we don’t like. I’m
not one of those people who would say ‘Well, that’s the way I am, I can’t change’;
if we don’t change our attitudes, perspectives and things we don’t like about
us, how we are supposed to evolve as characters. Of course, it is always easier
to say that that is the way we are than spend lots of time working on our
personalities, because it does take quite an amount of time and effort to
change even a single thing in our personality. But first of all, get to know
yourself well, get to the tiniest parts of your soul, be realistic and accept the
thought that you would want to change some things about yourself.
My ultimate goal in life is to be happy, truly, genuinely happy.
In love, work, relationships with people. And I must tell you, I’m doing
really good so far, because at one point I realised that my happiness doesn’t
depend on others, but only on me (sounds so cheesy, I know, but it is the truth
actually). Of course, there are people in my life who contribute to it, but in
order to be truly happy, you have to start from yourself and from what’s within
you. Be satisfied with yourself first and bring that positivity out on surface.
Lots of people tell me how I always have a smile on my face, and yes, I do,
because I want to and because there is no reason not to have it. We and our
problems are often so small, but we tend to make them so much bigger, and by
doing that we only bring more negativity to our lives.
I truly believe in two things: everything happens for a
reason and everything that happens to me is actually good for me. I blindly believe in
that and it turned to be true so many times. No matter in how difficult
situation I find myself sometimes, I believe it happened for a reason and I
always make a lesson out of it, find something positive to hold on to. I accept every
single thing that happens to me, good and bad. I accept it and then deal with
it, because it is so much easier to solve problems when you’re peacefully
accepting everything that’s coming on your way. Trust me, there is something
good and positive in everything, even in the saddest, most depressing
situations, you just have to take a look at a wider picture and find it.
I said I will also talk about what motivates me and I think
this is the toughest question for me because there are so many tiny things in
life that make me move. For example, when it comes to working out, the results (of
course) I see after a while and muscle pain after a good training motivate me
to do more, get better and keep doing it. There come moments when I think how I
can’t make it or I’m just lazy, but I instantly replace those thoughts with a
picture in my head of me being satisfied with my body and it gives me energy
straight away. I apply the same pattern to other sections of life too. It takes
time and effort to train yourself to think that way, it took me years because I
remember giving up things easily just because of the negative thoughts. But not
any more.
In the end, love for life motivates me. It gives us so many beautiful
opportunities, choices, chances, we just have to grab them. I love life and
that is why I accept everything it serves me because I know that at the end of
the day, it also loves me back.
Stay beautiful.
Love,
Nina

U
današnjem postu sam odlučila da podijelim sa vama neka svoja razmišljanja,
vjerovanja i šta me motiviše. Vjerujem da učimo dok smo živi i da nikada ne
treba da se zadovoljimo nečim što nam se ne sviđa. Nisam jedna od onih osoba koje
bi rekle „Pa takva sam, ne mogu da se mijenjam“; ako ne mijenjamo svoje
stavove, perspektive i stvari koje ne volimo u vezi sa nama samima, kako onda
da napredujemo kao ličnosti. Naravno, uvijek je lakše reći da smo takvi kakvi
smo nego provesti mnogo vremena radeći na svojoj ličnosti, jer zaista treba
mnogo vremena i truda da bismo promijenili jednu jedinu stvar u vezi sa sobom. Ali
prije svega, upoznajte sebe, zađite do najsitnijih dijelova svoje duše, budite
realni i prihvatite misao da biste možda željeli da promijenite nešto u vezi sebe.
Moj
cilj u životu je da budem srećna, istinski srećna. U ljubavi, poslu, odnosima
sa ljudima. I da vam kažem, za sada mi stvarno dobro ide, jer sam u
jednom trenutku shvatila da moja sreća ne zavisi od drugih, već samo od mene
(zvuči tako izlizano, znam, ali je zapravo istina). Naravno da u mom životu
postoje ljudi koji doprinose tome, ali da bismo bili zaista srećni, treba da
krenemo od sebe i onoga šta je u nama. Budite prvenstveno zadovoljni sobom i
onda tu pozitivnost iznesite na površinu. Mnogo ljudi mi kaže da sam uvijek
nasmijana, i da, jesam, jer želim da budem i zato što nema razloga da ne budem.
Mi i naši problemi smo često toliko mali, ali ih uvijek nekako preuveličavamo,
a radeći to, samo donosimo negativnost u svoj život.
Vjerujem
u dvije stvari: sve se dešava s razlogom i sve što mi se desi je dobro za
mene. Slijepo vjerujem u to i pokazalo se istinitim mnogo puta. Bez obzira na
to u koliko teškoj situaciji se ponekad nađem, vjerujem da se to desilo sa
razlogom i uvijek izvučem lekciju iz svega, pronađem nešto pozitivno za šta ću da se uhvatim.
Prihvatam sve što mi se dešava, dobro i loše. Prihvatam a onda se nosim s tim, jer
mnogo je lakše rješavati probleme kada mirno prihvatate sve što vam se nađe na
putu. Vjerujte mi, uvijek u svemu postoji nešto pozitivno, čak i u najtužnijim,
najobeshrabrujućim situacijama, samo treba da sagledate širu sliku i pronađete
to.
Rekla
sam da ću da pričam i o tome šta me motiviše i mislim da mi je ovo najteže
pitanje jer postoji toliko sitnih stvari u životu koje me pokreću. Na primjer,
kada je u pitanju treniranje, rezultati (naravno) koje vidim nakon nekog
vremena i bolovi u mišićima poslije dobro odrađenog treninga me motivišu da
radim više, bolje i da nastavim s tim. Naravno da dođu i momenti kada
mislim da neću uspjeti u nečemu ili sam jednostavno lijena, ali odmah zamijenim
te negativne misli u glavi slikom sebe kako sam zadovoljna svojim tijelom i to
mi istog trenutka daje energiju. Isti šablon takođe koristim i u drugim segmentima
života. Potrebno je vrijeme i trud da bismo istrenirali sebe da razmišljamo na
taj način, meni su trebale godine jer se sjećam da sam lako odustaja od mnogih
stvari baš zbog negativnih misli. Ali ne više.
Na kraju, život me motiviše. Daje
nam toliko divnih prilika, izbora, šansi, samo treba da ih uhvatimo. Volim život
i zato prihvatam sve što mi servira jer znam da na kraju dana, i on voli mene.
