Obstacles in our path


As we move forward in life and attempt to reach our goals, it is likely that we are going to come across a number of obstacles. Each and every person that has ever lived has had to face obstacles.

They are a part of life. We can however choose how we react to them
I know what you might be thinking. You might believe that with less problems your life would be easier. Perhaps. Better? No. I believe that in most cases in life, people don’t really want easier, they want better. They want to have more.

Often we’re discouraged because of some tough challenge or obstacle in our way. But a shift in mindset can change everything: Life presents us with a wide array of opportunities. It is not about preventing obstacles, but rather, how we can overcome them. When you allow these obstacles to control your life, they have the effect of sabotaging your efforts at changing your life in a positive way. Even worse, you feel stuck, frustrated, and helpless to change your lot in life.

Don't let your fears consume you — meet life head on...

Embrace the unknown and flow with the mystery that is unfolding in your life. Take life into your hands. Respond to life instead of reacting. Be committed and take steps toward the future. It is not what you do but the emotions behind it. When you pay attention to participating, you are in control.

It is my hope that you will unlock something within yourself that propels you to become the great person you were always meant to be. There is always a point of self-discovery, a point of greater clarity and a point of newness. It is wondrous. Be open and receptive.


Thought for the day:

Someone very wise said: “Nothing is impossible, so dwell in infinite possibilities.”
