Empowering Your Shift from Daydreaming to Dream Doing

March 20 - Are you feeling tested?

Mar 20 – Are you feeling tested? Is everything you are attempting to accomplish being met with a challenge lately? Are you feeling that you are being tested in some way? Do you feel that you shouldn't have to prove anything at this stage of your life, your career, or in your business? Are you so set in your way of doing things, that you are not being fully open to what may be a valuable insight you need?

When we experience one challenge at a time, it seems more palatable and, therefore, we deal with it and move on. But, when several challenges occur all at once, we too often get caught up in their accumulation as a whole versus viewing them as individual and manageable. Seeing what they might be trying to tell us rather than detesting them for hindering us in some way is key to turning challenges into opportunities in disguise. Once we are willing to explore them for insight, we shift to a position of strength and clarity related to next best steps.
