We all have obstacles in life that we must face, some of us have larger obstacles than others. For some of us it may be a mental hurtle while others may have emotional hurtles we need to face. It may not be fair but it is the simple reality of the situation. I was thinking about this the other day and I was wondering why this is. Why do some of us have larger obstacles we need to face?
I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. Every hurtle and obstacle we face are intended to make us better and stronger in the end. When we are in the thick of the challenge it can be extremely difficult to see how it will benefit us. I have learned that everyone who has ever achieved great success has had to face great obstacles in order to get to where they are. Just think about it Jeff Bezos and Steve Jobs faced a lot of opposition when they were creating Amazon and Apple, in fact most people thought they were crazy.
These two individuals faced a lot of challenges but they refused to give up. When we refuse to give up we are better for it. These challenges help to expand our mind and methods of thinking. So the next time you feel extra challenged take a step back and realize that there is a reason you are being challenged and you will be better for it. When you are not being challenged do not forget that other people may need a helping hand.
