Word for the week: Challenge
Definition - an obstacle or a difficulty.
Insight: “Being challenged in life is inevitable, being defeated is optional.” – Roger Crawford
Call them what you like, obstacles, problems, hurdles, stumbling blocks …anyone who knows me has heard my favorite phrase: “watch out for the lumps in that bowl of oatmeal” …It doesn’t matter, we all know that challenges will crop up.
Sometimes even when you have a plan in place, things don’t turn out as you expect, however when you do have a plan, things will always be better than when you don’t.
Many downturns are looked upon as bad luck and when the universe is favoring us we often say it’s good luck. We’ve learned that “Good luck is the outcome of hard work”, and hard work has better outcomes when a plan is in place.
