Challenges often arise for a reason.
At times they can pave the way to achieving my goals in ways I never previously thought of.
When I look at them as a good thing, I can often discover their blessings.
On the other hand, if I think of them as merely an obstacle in my way, I tend to miss out on their benefit.
In fighting a challenge, my focus is on what is wrong instead of what I can get out of it.
Naturally, if I focus on what is wrong, solutions to move forward tend to elude me!
I see challenges as the silver lining of the fabric of life.
It is up to me to discover this silver lining and take advantage of its opportunities.
A challenge can bring me a unique way of looking at a situation.
It invariably results in new knowledge that I find useful in my quests.
And sometimes it takes me on a new adventure altogether.
In all of these situations, there are opportunities just waiting to be discovered.
Therefore, instead of bemoaning every challenge that comes my way, I automatically look for the silver lining.
When I find it, I take action to use it to my advantage.
Consequently, I find that most of the time challenges bring me something good.
Today, I look forward to discovering the unplanned opportunities that the normal challenges of the day can bring.
