In my opinion, there are two ways that one can achieve their dreams. It is either:<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>taking the longer route, that is, doing something else now to earn a living then get back to your dream later, or<\/li><li>just getting on with it now. Earn a living while pursuing your dream though it may not be what you want. What you&#8217;re doing is investing time now especially if mastery in what you do is what you&#8217;re aiming for.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I chose the latter. Believe me when I say this, &#8216;so many times I want to choose the former because life can get tough sometimes&#8217;. So when I face these moments, what do I do?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just a little background on my dream and passion which is also my hobby that pays well. I moved from financial accounting as I felt it wasn&#8217;t fulfilling me. I then got into tax just to try it out and man, I fell in love. This is my 6th year in tax but I am still mapping my ultimate emergence, the big goal I want to achieve as a tax specialist. I have an idea of what it is now but I am not quite settled yet. However, because of the current economic situation in Zimbabwe, I sometimes forget about my dream and convince myself I can take the longer route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can follow my tax journey here.

Vision \/ Dream Board<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I go back to the drawing board, the vision that I wrote down. It&#8217;s important to write your vision down and it&#8217;s helpful to create a vision board for it. You will need it in times like these or when you need to make decisions in relation to some opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Read<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I find articles and read on this subject that interests me. It reignites my passion and I come back to my senses and remember what I set out to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. Pray<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whenever, I get an opportunity which for me is &#8220;any time is tea time&#8221;, I talk to my Father about it. I ask for His guidance and wisdom and as always He is ever ready to provide it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Find Alternatives<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes, we encounter people that are just difficult to work with. I am learning that there are alternatives and I will sure explore them all and find the one that works best. This is one of the things I learnt in counselling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-attachment-id=\"1185\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.nononyathi.co.zw\/index.php\/5-things-i-do-in-difficult-moments\/escalator-1245905_1920\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.nononyathi.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/escalator-1245905_1920.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1920,1280\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"escalator-1245905_1920\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.nononyathi.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/escalator-1245905_1920-1024x683.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nononyathi.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/escalator-1245905_1920-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1185\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nononyathi.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/escalator-1245905_1920-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.nononyathi.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/escalator-1245905_1920-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nononyathi.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/escalator-1245905_1920-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.nononyathi.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/escalator-1245905_1920-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.nononyathi.co.zw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/escalator-1245905_1920.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Image by <a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/photos\/?utm_source=link-attribution&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=image&amp;utm_content=1245905\">Free-Photos<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/?utm_source=link-attribution&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=image&amp;utm_content=1245905\">Pixabay<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>5. Steer Motion<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don&#8217;t give up on your dream, you&#8217;ve got to keep moving. If you really have to take the long route do that but always remember you need to come back to your vision. Give yourself a timeline when it comes to how long your detour will last. Make the experience count and let it push you closer towards your goal. All I am saying is, there&#8217;s always something to take away from that detour that will be very useful in implementing your vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, sometimes life happens but never take your eyes off the prize. I hope these 5 things I do can also help you and keep you encouraged to pursue your dream. I would also love to hear from you, share with me and other readers what you do when times are tough.
