# pill 13 “Why have we lost Faith and Desire ?”
I think the time has come, given the circumstances and experience with people to deal with a very important topic: that of ” Faith or Trust.”
All too often during meetings with athletes or during conversations with people, I notice an attitude of renunciation and fear, an attitude of discouragement and dejection at the first difficulty; we are too unaccustomed to seeing life as a path of learning, a school, an evolution, which at times may seem slow and inexorable, but which is nothing but the path our soul has chosen to evolve.
Despite our resistance, the path is marked; we can go along with it or oppose it, but we cannot escape our destiny…
We lack the habit of doing, of action, the ability and desire to really put ourselves out there in order to grow; it is almost as if the result is owed to us simply because we have done something with commitment.
This is not the case: the result is a set of factors, synchronicities and concomitances that are beyond our control; the real great result we should aspire to in any of our challenges is to be able to be as present to ourselves as possible, so that we can give birth to the best performance/action within us.
The path of sports, but as well as the path of life, whatever the field of expression, is studded with difficulties; there are many more difficulties to overcome, difficult moments to face, and choices to be made in order to grow, than there are victories or achievements.
This is very often seen by athletes and people as a problem; it is perceived as an impediment or a failure, a lack or a difficulty, undermining our worth and challenging us as people.
How is it that we have lost Faith ?
If we lose faith in God (Higher Force guiding us, call it whatever you like), if we lose Faith in existence, then we have lost ourselves, there is no good reason in the world outside to lose faith in ourselves and in Life.
The biggest trap of existence is this: to lose trust, to lose faith, this is where the game of Life is played and this is why we are tested, so that we can prove how strong and vigorous our Faith/Trust is, otherwise we lose who we are.
If we continue to work on ourselves, with paths of awareness, life and sports, we make ourselves stronger, we will become unassailable and develop more and more confidence in ourselves and our inner resources, so that when our confidence is tested by a challenge, whatever it may be, we will have no doubts and know that there the game is played and that is where we have to stand.
I know from personal experience and with others, that when we approach certain teachings and are ready to receive them, our soul recognizes it and feels it so much that it vibrates at its exact frequencies and awakens desire in us.
We need to awaken our Desire, many times we are comfortable not to desire, because then I don’t struggle, we have become accustomed to the daily grind, losing the glowing gaze, which makes us wonder what we desire and why we get up in the morning, and the answer can only be something that really makes our heart burn… But to embark on this path we must have Faith/Trust.
“There is no valid reason to close your heart ❤️…. “ This is the teaching.
