From the Editor's Computer
I’m sure you’ve noticed that sometimes your life just hums along, everything going right as decisions and actions come almost effortlessly. That is the time when we are so happy to be alive.
Then there are the other times. The times when you feel like you are fruitlessly banging your head against a brick wall. Nothing goes right and every action is a major struggle. Times like this you don’t want to even make a decision.
If you take any difficult situation and get down to the basics, it usually means one of two things - either your on the right path, or you are not.
If you faced with one difficulty after another, one disgruntled customer or client after another, one negative outlook after another, you might want to re-examine the direction you are traveling. Perhaps you know that you are going the wrong way, but are too stubborn to admit it…
On the other hand, you really could be on the right track and life still seems to be sending you through the wringer. That is when you need to sit down and examine yourself - your beliefs, loves, fears and concerns. This could be a time of growth for you.
Muscles grow strong through resistance and humans grow strong through adversity. We think better and grow more when we are faced with challenges. When this happens, we are forced out of our comfort zone into the unknown.
Life is an adventure...are you growing!
