There's an old saying that goes something along the lines of...
A diamond is a chunk of coal that handled pressure extraordinarily well.
Everyone on this planet is faced with pressure.
Sometimes internal, sometimes external. But the weight of life can destroy you or help create you. It can be the thing that defines you in the responsibilities that you have taken on in this life or it can drive you back into mediocrity.
Everything comes down to choice and that's what I want to help you make today.
We are all going to be faced with adversities but the difference between those who keep moving forward in life and those who crumble to pieces is how they decide to react to life's tests and trials.
How are you going to handle the pressure?
One person decides that they are going to be the victim and stops taking care of themselves completely. They let everything fall apart in their lives and continue to play the "woe is me" game.
The second person decides that they are going to step right into whatever has come their way and face it head on. They tip their hat to the pressure, acknowledge it, and decide that they are going to get through it no matter what...and why?
Because they know that the pressure helps create them and turn them into something stronger.
If we could all take this attitude about our problems in life it would make a huge difference.
Remember, we all face pressure.
Never lose sight of the fact that you aren't alone.
There is something deep inside each of us that is calling out our own unique gifts. Some may lose themselves to the pressures of life and never return back to who they really are. They don't have the skills, tools, or support system to bring them back and restore their faith in continuing making positive choices.
But for those brave souls that are willing to go through it all to help show the world what is possible, anything can be created. They can live as a representation of what is possible if you take your challenges head on.
And the final piece to the puzzle?
You will start asking for challenges...
You will ask the heavens above to give you exactly wha you need to grow into the person you need to be.
When you reach this point, you see challenges as a gift.
The choice is yours.
Break to pieces...or turn into a diamond?
Diamonds are the only answer.
