Get through it
When there's an obstacle directly in front of you, it can
appear difficult, complicated and forbidding. Once you get
past it though, you may wonder why you ever hesitated to
take it on.
Is there some challenge looming on your horizon that seems
insurmountable? The good news is that it is not nearly as
difficult as it first appears.
Yet the only way you'll know for sure is to step right up
and meet it face to face. Once you start to do that, you
also start to grow stronger, and as you do, the challenge
becomes more manageable.
If you hide and cower in fear when confronted with a
difficult situation, your response only makes the situation
even more difficult. By making the choice to stride
confidently forward, you raise yourself to a higher level of
performance.
As you work through the difficulties, your wisdom, strength
and effectiveness grow to meet the demands of the situation.
And all the time you'll be creating real, lasting value.
Though the challenge looks big and forbidding, remember that
it's well worth the effort to get to the other side. For
when you get in the habit of seeking and working through
challenge, you can go anywhere you choose.
