Obstructions or Construction?

DON'T FIGHT IT, GO THROUGH IT.

A sailor does not set his sail against the storm, otherwise he will find himself in unwanted territories. You either wait patiently for the storm to pass, or you set your sail such that it is supported by the storm. Storms do not come to sink your boat, except you fight it. After the storm, comes serenity, and brightness; storms clear rubbish and anything that may want to stand on your path to your destination.

Life's challenges are not death traps, they are not meant to pull you down, destroy you, or make you quit your journey, rather they are meant to build you up, toughen you, teach you how to fight, and gear you up towards pursuing your desired goals and aspirations.

Learn to ride on your challenges, learn to use stumbling blocks as stepping stones, do not give in to oppositions, do not let the noise around you hold you back. Champions are not people who do not face difficulties, but they go through those difficulties and come out better and brighter than they were before challenges and difficulties came.

You may be getting tired, you might have been drained of all the energy that is left in you, do not let it get the better of you. Think of any precious stone anywhere in the world, they have all gone through some of the hottest and harshest conditions to come out the way they are. Do not resist difficulties, do not fight challenges, but go through them, grow through them, and learn through them, you would come out perfectly refined to take your rightful place.
