Difficulty is a construct of the mind.

NOTHING IS DIFFICULT

Nothing is difficult when you put your mind to it. We hear this phrase time and time again, but like many popular sayings, it holds a lot of truth. When we allow ourselves to be intimidated by the obstacle in front of us, we only give it the permission to grow larger. However, when we embrace our resilience and believe in ourselves, we can conquer anything no matter how big and seemingly insurmountable it may be. Every challenge we come across will take the stature of the construct of our mind about it.

The key to achieving what we once thought was impossible, is developing a mindset of determination. If we believe that something is too difficult, then it will be, but when we switch our perspective and tell ourselves that we will make it through whatever challenges lie ahead, we open ourselves up to a world of endless possibilities. New challenges can be scary, but they are also opportunities for growth. Life is about testing our limits and pushing ourselves outside of our comfort zone. We can only reach our full potential if we take those leaps of faith and dare to dream bigger. 

There is always a sense of empowerment that comes with accomplishing something we once thought was beyond us. When we go up against a difficult task and succeed, it makes us understand that we are capable of achieving anything we set our minds to. This, in turn, allows us to push ourselves even further, and the cycle of growth continues. Difficulty is a construct of the mind, so, we must train our minds to see possibilities where others see impossibility.

Nothing in life worth having comes easy. Success requires hard work, consistency, and patience, but when we approach things with an "I can" attitude, we already have the most important tool in our toolbox. With a little persistence, you can overcome every challenge that may stand tall in front of you. Nothing is too difficult when we believe in ourselves. Change your thoughts, and you will see challenges differently.
