Embrace the Challenge

“The key to life is accepting challenges. Once someone stops doing this, he’s dead.” – Bette Davis
“A challenge only becomes an obstacle when you bow to it.”
― Ray A. Davis
There are so many that ”suffer with” problems and challenges allowing them to beat them down and discourage them. They will then complain and retreat to lives of negativity and defeat never experiencing joy.
By accepting that our challenges are the normal process of life meant to be lessons and opportunities, perhaps they can gain advantage from struggles not defeat.

Imagine applying for a job building houses, getting the job, then dreading having to build houses, doing it poorly and complaining about it!
It is no different.
Those that address struggles with confidence and purpose grow and succeed.
Many of those born into wealth and privilege void of challenge end up struggling with addictions, emotional pain, and depression due to lack of purpose while the laborer living paycheck to paycheck takes delight in the little time off with family and few small luxuries.
NEVER BEMOAN YOUR STRUGGLES THEY ARE LIFE.
