Another door
When your path is blocked, it's likely that you've just
encountered a grand opportunity. When what you were planning
doesn't go as you planned, it can put you on your way to
something even better than you first imagined.
Sure, it's nice when everything in your day and in your
world goes smoothly and according to plan. Yet when the
difficult, unexpected challenges arise, then you truly have
a chance to shine.
When one door is suddenly slammed shut on you, it forces you
to seek out and open another door. Behind that other door
there could very well be a whole, big, wonderful world
filled with astounding richness.
If things are going along nicely, you probably will not want
to venture very far from what is familiar and comfortable.
Yet when you suddenly run up against a brick wall, it can
compel you to a higher level of performance.
When a challenge suddenly looms, you'll find yourself
calling upon skills and capabilities you may have never used
before. And once you've used those new skills they do not go
away, but in fact become even stronger and more accessible
to you.
Challenges are life's way of showing you that you can be
stronger, more capable, more creative, more highly focused
than you ever would have thought. When life does not go as
you had wanted, that's your golden opportunity to make it
even better.
