CONQUERING YOUR OBSTACLE

One of the great keys to personal growth in this life is the ability to face challenges and meet them head-on.  Easier said than done, because facing and meeting challenges involves overcoming fear -- fear of the unknown, fear of embarrassment, or fear of failure.


Challenge plays an extremely important role when it comes to character. Character is not necessarily created by facing challenges, but rather it is revealed by them.  We may be completely unaware of our own character until met with seemingly daunting obstacles.  It is the manner in which we deal with them that reveals our true inner self.


There are several things you can do to help yourself deal with challenges more calmly. Essentially you need to open yourself up to new possibilities, new experiences, whether you think you are ready for them or not.

Accept the challenge without hesitation.  Think of it as opening a new chapter in your life.
