DO OBSTACLES STOP YOU? CHANGING YOUR LIFE WITH WORDS - DAY 162

There are all types of obstacles in life.   They can be physical, financial, mental, emotional, or imaginary. What do you do when you encounter obstacles?  Do you develop a strategy to overcome them?  Do you worry or fret over them?  Do you allow them to defeat you?  Do you succumb to them before you have done everything you can do about them?  Our personalities, life experiences, self-confidence, ambition, courage, determination, mental and emotional strength all combine to either help us overcome obstacles, to accept defeat without trying, or to give up somewhere in the middle.

Our character is built in part by how we deal with obstacles.  So many times the obstacles are not as huge as we may perceive them to be, and most often we are actually stronger than the obstacles. Reactions to obstacles can be varied from anger, fear, and depression on the negative side to excitement, strategic planning, seeking advice or assistance, or facing them directly on the positive side.

Do you react negatively or positively?  Do you step up to the plate and do what is necessary and possible to get rid of the obstacles?  I hope your method of operation is to

BREAK BARRIERS!
