Hope is what keeps going on in life all the time.
Life is full of ups and downs, at one moment we may be very elevated and the other we may be down. Some times we progress and some times we fail and fall. But the worst is to not get up and move on when we fail and fall. Some people are filled with excuses when they fail and give up easily and after that do not want to take any action. I believe they create obstacles by themselves and then come up with all the possible excuses and the classic one is Luck is not on my side or that the Luck did not favor me. Life is happening every day so why give up on one failure. When the spark of hope is lost the whole battle is lost.
So what is this Luck? Does this Luck decide our Success or Failure in Life?

Ok let me tell you one story.
I know of a person, very very close to me, who just a few days ago lost all her Crypto investments. It was not small. A major chunk of her life savings. In just one shot she lost everything. Like in a blink of an eye all her life savings were gone. She was in a terrible state for 2 days when she got to know of this. She cried a lot and felt hopeless that now what. How is she going to manage things in her future. She was one who had set major goals for herself in the years to come and dedicated herself working towards it. All that went away, every single penny was self hard earned and trust me the amount was not small. It was in millions.
After 2 days of all that crying, feeling sorry for herself and her destiny, On the 3rd day I saw her in a complete normal state. Like nothing had happened, and she had started working back on how to make things work back again for future. How to get her investments back in place. She was making a detailed plan month on month wise of how she would put in some extra effort in new jobs and generate more income to again invest back, and she wants to do it soon, a major chunk of it by end of this year itself, before the crypto prices start going up.
Ok, so this person is none other then my own self. Yes this happened to me. I still cannot believe it happened, but I do not wish to now drool over it, for sure I know what I have lost is not coming back, but then I need to keep moving and start working on building up again. I do not have time to sit and drool and cry over what I have lost.
Just when things were getting settled for me with my hubby's health this blow came in for me. It was unbelievable, I do not want to get into that part of how it happened, but it did and I do not even have words to express how I felt.
Imagine at one second you know you have everything and the other second you know it's all gone.
But I have always believed in one thing that whatever is meant for you will come any how and what is not meant for you will go anyhow and I feel this is what just happened to me. But hard to accept right?
I am fine now, as I said the first 2 days all that crying and all was done. Now all I am thinking is how can I make it up and I am sure things will set in place with times to come. After all this 2020 has been dreadful for many, whereas I have just lost the money, many people have lost more valuable things in life which they may never be able to get back. Money will come and go and I am not saying just to please my own-self, but I truly believe in this.
Now if I sit brooding over it for a longer period, I may miss out on the new opportunities coming my way, which is the last thing I want to do. Right now I want to be open in my mind and keep my options open to what next and how, and that I can only do it with an open mind.
Sometimes we keep looking at the closed door for so long that the next open door just gets out of sight. The approach that we take to face our challenges and obstacles decide.....if our Luck is Good or Bad. First of all I believe there is no Good Luck and no Bad Luck, luck is a convenient way of putting the blame on external factors due to our own inefficiency of the approach towards life. For sure 6 months down the line I am going to share my success story here again.
A person with a closed mind is nothing but a bundle of excuses and someone who always wants to be in comfort zone, not wanting to take any efforts. Or sometimes the fear of failure holds back. But what good is success without tasting failure. When we are able to explore life in depth In and Out, truly then we have lived a meaningful life. It's ok to fail, it's ok to fall, but it's not ok to sit back.
Blogging on Hive and Steem is also one classic example. There are so many who with dedication work and eventually they do grow, and then there are these set of people also who are always complaining they do not earn and hence there is no point of blogging. I feel sad for people who think in that manner. Nothing happens overnight, as the saying goes "Rome was not built in a day" and so does every success needs planning, action, determination. But all of that comes when one sees the possibility of it.
Hope is what keeps everything going and I am just not hopeful but I am sure that I will make things happen and that I will be achieving my goals in the timeline that I have set. I will never give up, I am 50% down right now but I am hopeful that it will be back on track again.
Now all I need is a daily dose of vitamin P (positivity)...hehehe and that will bring me all that I desire.

Me too, never had even a glimpse that you lost millions and are rebuilding - you definitely are a great source of inspiration for the society. Now a days people take the wrong path quite fast just for sake of some stupid causes.
What's the point of sitting and crying over it, nothing will change and nor will it come back, so best is to Let go and keep moving. Somewhere I thank my Dad for making me this way.
Thank you for your care @sanjeevm
oh noooo Nainaz!!
I don't know what happened but so sorry to hear this happened to you!!
I cannot even imagine!
Yes, you gave it the energy it deserved and knowing how amazingly tenacious and diligent you are - I just know you will be right back there bigger and better!!
Sending you a tonne of <33
Hugs Nainaz
Yes my dear, it was a bit too much to absorb but then moving on is the best thing I can do.
Many thanx for your love and good wishes. And ya I am determined to be at the same place again soon :-)
Much Love to you <33
Loved your story! Honoured that you were open enough and shared it here. Losing millions is nothing if you do not lose yourself. You have the greatest asset :mind and experience. No failure can take that away from you. You have the wit and the grit to rebuild a new fortune, I can tell!
I agree with staying positive and perservere in everything. Excuses are for those who quit and lack motivation. Success comes to those who deserve it.
A good read is this article, hope more people will learn from it!
I had the courage to get out of all the drama at the earliest that was the best. I cannot sit and cry over any loss for a long time.
Thank you for your kind words @creativemary, I will put my best efforts and then rest will leave it to the universe to manifest and I am sure it will take care.
Very good for you! Never dwell in the past. Always look ahead! Bravo!
Wow beautiful write, sometimes I still feel many have taken daring decisions concerning cryptocurrency and it didn't pay off, but then at the end it all boils down to staying strong and persevering
True, when you know there is risk, you need to be prepared. Sadly mine was no gamble and a safe investment with a long term sight but still....I guess when something has to slip off it does any how
Excellent theme and much more its content, people sometimes fall in a level of esteem below zero, they are frozen by their own, I have had the bad experience of living with people of heavy minds that what they see is the bad side of things, the dark vision of things and not the illuminated part, that is why they will always live stuck.
I congratulate you for this publication, I liked too much its development and explanation.
Thank you, the mind is like a monkey, keeps jumping and wants to be wild and free, it wants to keep exploring and then in turn sometimes need to take the brunt of it.
I always like motivational writings. Thanks for your nice contents.
Thank you
I have many things in common with you, I live in Venezuela a country in crisis, I have been methodically overcoming every obstacle for more than 30 years.
Your post is a ray of light to motivate people, and I thank you for that.🌺
I do not see obstacles, I see opportunities to find innovative solutions to unique problems! and as long as we have this attitude, we will be successful.
Magnificent publication !.
@reinaldoverdu, I have learned a lot about Venezuela crises lately on hive and my heart goes out for people who are living in these extreme conditions where the basics are also so much struggle. Then I really feel that life has such different meanings for everyone, where one cries for loss of excess money, the other one does not even have enough to buy a meal a day.
I hope and wish that Hive and Crypto space brings in lot of light for you and everyone in your country, but yes you need to be careful, because in crypto space also lot of frauds are happening.
Thank you very much, thank you for your warm and kind words. Yes, the situation is very difficult, and sometimes it worsens, in my case I have the only bank account that I have blocked, and that makes things even more difficult because I must perform miracles to purchase food, pay services, etc. (I must borrow a bank account and have FIAT deposited there and then use the borrowed debit card), So as you can see, everyone has challenges and obstacles, but I think that only by becoming being supportive and putting yourself in the place of another, we will be able to have a better and better world and overcome all this crisis!
And of course, take care of those who want to scam us and keep our profits from our hard work.
A warm handshake! 🤝
Oh and last but not least :
~ Blogging on Hive and Steem is also one classic example. There are so many who with dedication work and eventually they do grow, and then there are these set of people also who are always complaining they do not earn and hence there is no point of blogging. I feel sad for people who think in that manner. Nothing happens overnight, as the saying goes "Rome was not built in a day" and so does every success needs planning, action, determination. But all of that comes when one sees the possibility of it. ~ this is such a bitter truth and we so many come in and being heter for the wrong reasons. So AMEN to the quote and author
I'm so sorry and sad about what happened to you. Life can teach us valuable lessons at times. We just have to learn from whatever mistakes we make and resolve never to do it again.
I hope your hubby is doing fine now. All is going to be fine.
That's why we're always advised to keep an open mind about things in life
Learning never stops for us in this human body and it just keeps happening all the time.
Yes thankfully his health is much better now and we are waiting to fly back to Muscat our home as soon as the flight resumes.
Thank you for your care and concern
Much Love <3
You're welcome. I wish you safe travels. It's such a pity that this pandemic put on hold a lot of things
Please tell her to spread out risks. Putting all eggs in one basket is dangerous! Love!!! 😘
Yes, have done that, and thankfully because of that have been saved up
Great post! Really inspiring, @nainaztengra.
If you want to compete in the contest with this post, just include the original post of the contest (published by me) in it.
Hey, that's fine, exclude me from the contest. I was just talking about the synchronicity. There are more deserving Hivers for that part.
Thank you
All right. You're welcome.
Solid read @nainaztengra
Resteemed already. Upvote on the way :)
Thank you :-)
We are so resilient and you will rise above and prevail again. The thing is that these waves of life we need to make new strategies and plans for the new future. And for comfort i. Have been there o this is a bit of my story aswell and we both are still here and the future is bright
For sure there is always a light in the future all we need to do is spark it up. And after all it's life, just going through experiences, some rough and some pleasant. Thank you for your kind words. <3
Sorry to hear about that Loss. But you sound like you are UNSTOPPABLE and will be back on top :)
It seems to me that the attitude that you have assumed in front of this problem is the best friend, unexpected things always happen in life, I believe that everything has its reason to be so it seems the end of the world for us, many times they are only tests that put us to make us stronger and grow in other aspects of life or so I see it.
As you say sometimes we think our problem is the biggest but we do not see that around us there are people in worse situations, without food, for example, or going through a great mourning, I think it all depends much on our attitude to different situations, so courage!
I'm sure you'll be able to get up again! :)
I send you your prize for the engagement number 50 congrats
I feel.more inspired reading these
