Choose the mountain you want to climb

Don't be influenced by what other people say: 'that one is preetier' or 'that one looks easier'. You are going to put a lot of energy and enthusiasm into achieving your objective, and your are the only person responsible for your choice, so be quite sure about what ur doing.

Find out how to reach the mountain

Often you can see the mountain in the distance- beutiful, interesting, full of challenges. However, when you try to reach it, what happens? It's surrounded by roads; forests lie between you and your objective; and what seems clear on the map is far more complicated in reality. So you must try all the paths and tracks until, one day, you find yourself before the peak you intend to climb.

Learn from someone who has been there before

However unique you may think you are, there is always someone who has had the same dream before, and who has left signs behind that will make the climb less arduous: the best place to attach a rope., trodden paths, branches broken off to make easier to pass. It is your climb and it is your responsibility too, but never forget that other's people's experiences are always helpful.

Dangers, seen from close to, are controllable

When you start to climb the mountain of your dreams, pay attention to what is around you. There are, ofcourse, precipices. There are almost imperceptible cracks. There are stones polished so smooth by rain and wind that they have become slippery as ice. But if you know were you are putting your foot, you will see any traps and you will be able to avoid them.

The landscape changes, so make the most of it

You must, naturally, always keep in mind you objective - reaching the top. However, as you climb, the view changes, and there is nothing wrong with stopping now and then to enjoy the vista. With each metre you climb, you can see a little further, so take time to discover things you have never noticed before.

Respect your body

You will manage to climb a mountain if you give your body the care it deserves. You have all the time that life gives you, so do not demand too much from your body. If walk to quickly you will grow tiered and give up halfway. If you walk too slowly nigth migth fall, and you will get lost.  Enjoy the landscape and drink the cool spring water, but keep on walking.

Respect your soul

Don't keep repeating "I am goin to do it'. Your soul knows this already. What it needs to do is to use this long walk in order to grow, to reach out far as the horizon, to touch the sky. Obsession will not help you in search of you goal, and will end up spoiling the pleaure to climb. On the other hand, don't keep repeating 'It's harder than I thought' because that will sap your inner strength.

Be prepared to go the extra mile

The distance to the top of the mountain is always greater than you think. there is bound to come a moment when what seemed to be close is still far away. But since your prepared to go still further, this should not be a problem.

be joyful when you reach the top

Cry, clap your hands, shout out loud that you made it; let the wind (because it is always windy up there) purify your mind, cool your hot, weary feet, open your eyes, blow the dust out of your heart. What was once a dream, a distant vision, is now a part of your life. You made it, and that is good.

Make a promise

Now that you have discovered the strength you did not even know that you had, tell yourself that you will use it for the rest of your days; promise youself too, to discover another mountain and set off on a new adventure.

Tell your story

Yes, tell your story. be an example to others, Tell everyone that its possible,and then others will find courage to climb their own mountains.
