Often times we mistake our immediate struggles and adversities as our ultimate destination. We feel trapped, stuck where we are and have no idea that something significantly better is waiting for us on the other side.
Let’s be honest – humans don’t like change. We like to be comfortable. We like our “knowns”. Even if they are suboptimal, we take comfort in what we know.
Sometimes things fall apart for a reason. An old door needs to close before a new one can open. We have to fully let go of people and things for greater things to come into our lives. And we need to remember that our failures, struggles and life experiences prepare us for what is to come next. Just because we think our world is falling apart doesn’t mean that it is.
Think about your past struggles and all the adversity you have gone through and overcome. Think about how you have survived 100% of your bad days. How did it change you? What lessons did you learn that enabled you to grow and create a better life?
The truth is, we learn more from our hardships and failures than our success. What struggles have you overcome that helped create the amazing person that you are today?
