What Road Blocks?

It would be nice to know that life would always go according to plan. Over every obstacle we would triumph, any thing worth trying we would accomplished, whatever we would start would get completed, anywhere we would want to go we would get there, and setbacks as we know it would be virtually obsolete. But what would we learn and appreciate then? I think the point of living, experiencing, and navigating through life is to teach us something, give value and appreciation to what we want and get out of life.

One of the problems I see recurring is that small road blocks are viewed as boulders. Initial impact can hurt, confuse, or shake you, but never let it break you. Remind yourself frequently that the energy and time you waste dwelling on the problem itself is blocking you from getting to the solution. It takes work, but force yourself to think in that way, and you will find your way out of any bad situation. A problem is never bigger than its solution- get busy finding it. In some circumstances it is hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel, but knowing one is there is the first step to into the light.

Here is the key: If plan A does not work, find your plan B, C, D and E if you have to. The point is to keep going. They say you can not fail until you stop trying. I say, keep trying and take failure off the table completely. Failure is simply not an option.
