Life and Challenges
I once met a renowned philosopher and the conversation that I had with him has left an indelible mark on my subconscious mind that I’d like to share with you.
I’ll keep the context and the details of the conversation to myself, because the nature of the conversation was extremely personal, but I’ll share the crux of the conversation and the unadulterated learning that I received from him that day, which is the most invaluable part of the exchange anyway.
He told me that “As far as you’re alive, learn to embrace challenges that life throws your way. Embracing challenges doesn’t mean you focus on manifesting more challenges for yourself. It just means that you’re subconsciously prepared, capable and strong enough to deal with those challenges and that in itself, reduces the impact of the challenge tremendously.”
My follow up question to this excerpt was, “But master, how do I actually eradicate and eliminate the existing and the future challenges that I will face?”
Brace yourself for his explanation because it’s a lot simpler than you’d imagine, but just because something seems simple, doesn’t mean executing that simple idea would be an easy process.
How to eradicate and eliminate life challenges?
His explanation and answer to the question I mentioned earlier left me speechless and hopeful.
He said, “You don’t deal with, eliminate, or eradicate challenges in your life.
You learn to deal with one challenge at a time. You focus towards eliminating the first challenge that you feel confident you can tackle, and you get the ball rolling. Sooner than you know, you will gain the confidence, the momentum and you’d start eradicating challenges, difficulties, roadblocks, from your life the way a ninja cuts fruit with a sharp sword with utmost precision in movies and video games.”
The answer seems too simplistic in nature, but I dare you to read this note once again and contemplate on what the philosopher said.
You will realise this is the only way to deal with all life challenges.
We (humans) are only capable of changing/ moulding/ adapting to our present situation and circumstances.
So if you’re not happy with where you are in your life, pick up the first project that you’re capable of improving presently in your life and get the ball rolling.
Make things better one project at a time and unlock the abundance for yourself.
Conclusion
Are you someone who starts shivering the moment you think about the words like failure, change, and rejection?
I hope this note will help you reflect on the idea that you need to start working on what’s possible to be changed now, what you can start working on right now, and what needs to be improved immediately.
