These words came in to my mind while thinking about my dreams. Each one of us have a challenges in our life and we only have two things to choose; 1. To continue 2. To give up. Some people ended up in giving up their dreams and goals because of different reasons. On the other hand, people who has a confident and positive mindset become successful.
Now, let us talk the three divisions of our life that is based on my opinion and perception. They are process, progress and success.
We are in the process
The first stage will be on the process, in this stage, we will encounter different challenges—the easiest and hardest problems in our life. We will learn everything, we will be a matured person, we will know how to overcome our problems. This stage will be the hardest, as what they have said, the first step will always be the most difficult. This can make us stronger in different aspects, mentally, physically, socially, financially and etcetera.
To overcome your problems, we must know the following:
Trust yourself. You should always trust yourself first before you trust other people. Remember, you cannot give what you do not have. When you trust yourself, you will surely achieve what you want.
Be confident. This is the brother of trusting yourself. Once you trust yourself, you will be confident. Avoid being over-confident, it can lead to a negative outcome. Be confident and be humble.
Learn to accept the downsides. Every challenges will not always end up in being a winner. We will also have a losing point and if that happened, the best thing is to learn from it and forget it. Nothing will happen if you cry and grieve, it is what it is. One thing that I am telling to myself is “Every downside has an opportunity and we need to find it”
The progress stage
When you are done on the process, you will be on the second stage which is the progress stage. In this stage, you are going to develop yourself, you will learn something and you will know to correct your mistakes. This is the stage where yoi are finally stronger than before because you are overcoming your challenges from the process.
As what I have said on my bio, trust the process. They said that time will take everything. Everything will undergone on the process and when you overcome it, then you are on the right path and walking on the road to success!
Furthermore, we also need to consider some things in this stage such as:
Don't be too calm. You are probably thinking that challenges are already done—it is possible, but we don't need to forget that problem will possibly appear everytime. You always need to be ready on what are the possible things that will happen.
Be humble. Remember, always be humble everytime. You are still on the progress stage, near to success but still to need to be a person with moral!
Look on the past. They said “Forgot the past” but for me you shouldn't, why? because it is part of your journey, even it is the most bitter part of your life you can look on it and LEARN from your mistake. Look on it on the positive side and not in negative side.
Finally, the success!
“When you plant a seed, you will harvest soon” the most delicious and best stage of our life is success. In this stage, you finally overcome everything. If you have a problem, you will solve it without worrying that much especially if it is only a small problem. You will become a matured person, you have a lot of experiences. “Experience is the best teacher.”
Nevertheless, being humble is a must. We need to be humble everytime because I do believe that character is always important. Don't underestimate other people to judge them because sometimes the fish can eat a big boastful bear in no time.
Conclusion
We have different stage on our life. We have different conflicts that we need to solve and overcome. The best thing to do is always trusting the process, the first stage and step is the most difficult but it will give you a strong foundation in the future.
Don't give up but learn to accept the failures, you will be successful someday? Go for your goals:)

With process,progress and success we also need prayers. You are right we should be humble, not too much calm and be polite to ourselves. Great sort of learning from your article.
