Life Challenges

Commentary by Peter Shepherd
Life Challenges
“Life's challenges are not supposed to paralyze you, they are supposed to help you discover who you are.” ~ Bernice Johnson Reagon
At times of change, whether we choose it or are forced into it, we bump our nose into the aspects of life that we had previously maneuvered to avoid. Our life challenges. Overcoming such challenges provides our best learning opportunity, our chance for personal development. Each time you meet a problem and tackle it with a positive mental attitude, you grow in wisdom, stature and experience. As Henry J. Caiser said, “Problems are only opportunities in work clothes.”
“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” ~ Martin Luther King
Real difficulties can be overcome; it's only the imaginary ones that are unconquerable.
“Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow know what you truly want to become.” ~ Steve Jobs
Challenges are what makes life interesting. Overcoming them is what makes personal growth possible. Our life challenges are many and varied; they make up the fabric of life.
“Opportunity follows struggle. It follows effort. If follows hard work. It doesn't come before.” ~ Shelby Steele
Don't limit your challenges. Challenge your limits.
“When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change; at such a moment, there is no point in pretending that nothing has happened or in saying that we are not ready. The challenge will not wait. Life does not look back.” ~ Paulo Coelho
Life will keep bringing you the same test, over and over again, until you pass it.
