“If you will call your troubles experiences, and remember that every experience develops some latent force within you, you will grow vigorous and happy, however adverse your circumstances may seem to be.”
-John Heywood
I've said it before and I will say it a million more times-Life is what YOU make it. Label your phases as you please but keep in mind that every label will live up to its name. Hence, if you call your hard times things like "tests of faith," "learning experiences," or "lessons learned" you are more apt to overcome them than if you labeled them "the dark times," "the worst days of my whole life," or "things I won't ever overcome." Whenever you are presented with a challenge today (or any other day), give it a new name: "something else to conquer." Resist the temptation to sigh when it seems especially difficult and nearly impossible; instead, break down the challenge into small tasks and before you know it you will have painted a masterpiece!
Hit the ground running!
