We can either be defined by our challenges or destroyed by them.
It's your choice.
When things are going well in life, everything is fine and dandy. But when everything starts to crumble we have a couple of choices. We can either let the situation ruin the rest of our life or we can decide that we are going to step into the situation with courage and bravery and move forward. At the end of the day, will you be the man or woman that decided to quit or the one that just kept on going?
The amount of pressure we face every single day is astronomical.
These pressures are familiar to everyone. We all have them come over us when we are not ready for them and really have no choice in how life decides to do what it does. A great deal of the time it all happens at once or nothing happens at all. But we are all privy to the overwhelming nature of pressure and have to make a choice of how to respond to it.
Why can't we grow into these pressures?
It is the fear that we will have to go through more pain that truly digs into our hearts. But this fear is something that you can step into as well. In fact, one of the greatest pressures of all is fear itself. But fear doesn't have to be the thing that runs your entire life. Instead, it can be the thing that drives your courage.
For those who are willing to sacrifice their comfort for the betterment of tomorrow, they will shine as lights for many others around them. They will turn into diamonds. They will show the world what is possible.
If we decide to live through the fear and make ourselves into something greater than what we currently are living in, we can see these pressures as privileges instead of obstacles. We can see how much of a privilege it is to be performing on the world stage instead of hiding in the stands.
So what will it be?
Turn to ash or into a diamond?
