Everyone one of us in life faces challenges. Some of those challenges are large and some of those challenges are small. What’s universal is that we all have challenges.
Turns out that the most decorated Olympic athlete, Michael Phelps has challenges as well:
One of the beauties of life is that we can overcome our challenges and be successful in life. In fact, sometimes our challenges can become our greatest strengths. It all depends on how we look at the challenges we face.
While it’s true we all have challenges, we all also have opportunities. We have a choice to take those opportunities and run or not to take those opportunities. The problem for many is that most opportunities are hidden in something we call work. Many don’t want to put in the work that’s required to take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves.
How are you approaching your challenges? Are you finding ways to work around them or to even use them to your advantage?
How are you approaching your opportunities? Are you ready to work for them?
Don’t let excuses get in the way of your opportunities.
Excellent inspiration for us all. Thank you for writing this post–you keep all of us motivated every day! Thank you John.
