Welcome to Real Talk with Reginald D. I'm your host, Reginald D. On today's episode, I'm going to talk about coming back stronger. Let's go. Everybody has experienced setbacks in their lives. Some of us have experienced multiple setbacks. Some of you have experienced major setbacks that you still haven't recovered from. Your setbacks have put you in a position where you feel weak and unaccomplished. Your setback has you questioning your purpose and what you're here for. Your setbacks has brought doubt into your life. You don't feel like you can accomplish anything. You don't feel like you can make it. You don't feel like you're worthy. But I need you to understand that there is so much inside of you. You're still valuable regardless. Your setback didn't happen to make you weak. It happened to make you strong. It's all about how you receive it. See, you can do nothing about your setbacks. There is nothing you can do about it. Look at it this way. Your past setbacks was then, but this is now. Start worrying about your now. You have to start again. You have to live again. That's the first step in coming back from a setback. Some setbacks are really not a setback. It's all about how much power you give a situation. It's all about how much you allow your situation to control your mind. I have listened to people call a relationship a setback. Now they're not even married to the person. They're just dating. And when one person break up with the other, that person just falls apart because that person broke up with them. The crazy part about it, the person wasn't hitting on nothing in the first place. They wasn't bringing nothing to the table but drama. You got to let folks like that go. That's not a setback. That's a reality check. Don't blame a clown for being a clown. You just got to stop going to the surface. I need you to understand in order to come back from a setback, you have to look back over your life and see that God has made a way for you before through tough times and believe that he will do it again. He has your comeback. You just have to have faith and keep going. Every setback you've had, God has a plan for it. God is bigger than your setbacks. He is bigger than your obstacles. You may feel like God has left you, but he hasn't. He is just working the plan for your comeback. Now, I get it. Your setback brings loneliness into your life because people shy away from you when you get set back in life. They don't want to deal with that part about your life because they're scared that you may need their help. In order to come back from a setback, you have to first put in your mind that nobody is coming to save you and your life is 100% your responsibility. And in order to rise to that point, you got to quit blaming yourself. You got to quit dwelling on your failures, on why you got set back in life. Your thought process is critical to your comeback. You have to realize your comeback is part of your story. It's the powerful part of your life story. So don't worry about being alone. Remember, eagles fly alone and pigeons flock together. Don't worry about how things look right now. Don't be embarrassed. Sometimes you got to put your personal pride aside, especially when the cause is bigger than you. You are in this place right now because God is working on something huge for your life. Right now, your focus should be being the you that God created you to be. Be your best you. Heaven knows what you need. In order to come back stronger, you're going to have to be tougher. You're going to have to put your beast mode on. You can't be sensitive. You've got to run over things that gets in your way and don't apologize for it. This is your combat moment. You've been down too long. You've got to make it your time now. You tell people they either going to roll with you or get rolled over. It's combat time. If you don't make a comeback in your life, then guess what? You're going to keep having setbacks. That's the truth. Man, I'm feeling this. God is going to elevate you right in front of the people that broke you. Don't go for revenge. Just have faith. Your comeback is going to be stronger than anybody will ever believe. You just got to keep getting better and better. You can do this. You can make it. You can make it on your own. Your heart belongs to you now. Your mind belongs to you now. They don't belong to your setbacks anymore. Hold on to life. That's how you're going to come back stronger. You're going to be rewarded for every setback that you have been through. Just stay the course. You will be wiser in the morning. Everything you're going through and have been through is only making you wiser and stronger. You are valuable. Get out of your head and back on your feet. Know your worth. Know who you are. Don't let your setbacks take your identity away from you. Remember who the heck you are. You are a child of God. That means you have favor on you. You just got to be bold when it comes to you and your life. You got to allow your dark thoughts and doubt exit your mind. Allow clarity to replace your confusion. It's time for your victory. It's time to start celebrating you. It's time to start celebrating your life. It's time to start celebrating your comeback. You are a great gift and a beautiful soul. You are worth it. You can come back stronger. You just got to be willing to fight through it. Your life can be great if you choose to make it that way. Do you know the things you see comes from within? What you see on the outside comes from the inside of you. I need you to understand wherever you are and whatever your story is, you are enough. Remember that. I need you to remember that your setbacks are temporary. but your perseverance is permanent. Setbacks are temporary as long as you don't give up. The difference between stumbling blocks and stepping stones is how you use them. Just because you had a setback, you can't allow your mind to get setback. You have to think through it. Here's the thing, your comeback will always be stronger than your setback. Setbacks is just an ingredient for a great story. I need you to know that it doesn't matter about your setbacks. It's about your determination. Just because you had a setback, you are still ahead of everyone else that's not trying. I'm going to leave you with this. Every day is a day of choices. I need you to know that your current situation is not your final destination. It's all about the choices you make in the season of your life. Surround yourself with people that want to invest in you, learn from you, support your visions, and help you win. Stay strong, breathe a little bit, and stick with people who genuinely love you and respect you. Always remember that your comeback is going to be stronger than your setback.
