What's Your Challenge

As many of you will be aware the gauntlet has been thrown down reference The Ice Bucket Challenge, I was called out by a good friend and responded accordingly. In the process it made me wonder what other challenges have I been putting off in my life and what was the reason behind it. When all is said and done it's that old chestnut FEAR tied in with those limiting beliefs around the deck of cards that I've been dealt and my ability to play that elusive winning hand.

You see when we break down FEAR as False Evidence Appearing Real and are prepared to take a leap of Faith towards that we have been called to do, we allow the magic to happen. What's that you may ask? It's the acceptance of being different and understanding that the job in hand has our name on it.

Whether the challenge be weight loss, finances, relationships, an addiction or time keeping, if we accept that we are different and stop comparing ourselves to everyone else, it will become apparent that remaining in the crowd prevents us from being noticed. To achieve our greatness we must have faith and trust the process of life, we must disregard the negative opinions of others and understand that there will always be obstacles and advantages, trials and triumphs.

It is up to us to make the most of the positive and not let the negative derail us, we can choose to sink or swim, see the cup as half empty of half full, truth be known if it is half empty it is also half full therefore the choice is ours. Nelson Mandela put it this way “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us".

The majority of challenges that we face have been addressed by others, what we need to do is become child like again and remember to ask and we shall receive, seek and we shall find, knock and the door will be open.
