Growth

Growth

We don’t grow when things are easy; we grow when we face challenges. ~Joyce Meyer

What are some challenges you face? Do you engage and embrace a challenge or do you fight against it?

Do you struggle when you are faced with an issue you feel you cannot handle? What do you do?

My first thought, when faced with a challenge or issue is to think before I speak. Step back and evaluate what the problem is. Is it you? Can you change what you don’t like? It is someone else causing the challenge? If it is someone else, we don’t have the capability to control their thoughts or actions; we are only in control of ourselves.

I believe our challenges do enable us to grow. If life were easy all the time, we’d be bored. Sometimes the toughest situations allow us to look within; our “self” becomes stronger and wiser; we grow.

So let the challenges do just that. Don’t think of yourself as a failure because something didn’t work out, or something in your life was hard. Look at it as an opportune time of growth.

Think of it as growth, both in mind and spirit. Be proud of yourself for rising above the challenge, pushing through, and accomplishing something.
