Turning Our Trials Into Success
Posted by Jim Woods on Mar 16th 2023
Pain is a natural part of life. Life doesn’t go the way we hope. We will face monumental disappointments whose trauma can last a lifetime. Regardless of how well we are prepared, our successes will fall short of our frustrations. Ultimately, if we are unfaltering, we will find the measure of success we sought. Although it is difficult, we can learn to have gratitude when things happen so we can be open to the opportunities the struggle is revealing.
Life has always been challenging. With the current pandemic, we can feel hopeless. We don’t know how “better” will look. We began to feel apocalyptic about our relationships, family, health, and career. Even though many of us are going through tragic situations, we don’t have to focus on that. We can choose to focus on our still having each other with eyes focused on the possibilities ahead. Whatever you focus on, becomes fulfilled.
