There are always challenges that come your way and I'm probably better prepared to deal with them now I've been at Hibs.
If I am going up a ladder, and a dog begins to bite at my ankles, I can do one of two things - either turn round and kick out at the it, or simply go on up the ladder. I prefer to go up the ladder!
Life is not about focusing on the obstacles. It's about how you handle them, and whether you get enlightenment or levity from the way you do it
Obstacles are merely a call to strengthen your resolve to achieve your worthwhile goals.
Carry in your memory, for the rest of your life, the good things that came out of those difficulties. They will serve as a proof of your abilities and will give you confidence when you are faced by other obstacles.
There's obstacles, there's challenges, there's things that come in the way. So building relationships and building some of the expectations on the front end helps you deal with them so it doesn't just all come caving in.
You just keep a positive attitude no matter what comes in your way - challenges, roadblocks - don't let it faze you, and you can overcome anything.
What I've learned is, there's not just one way to achieve a goal. There can be obstacles along the way and it's how you learn from that that will really make you a success.
If you can't go around it, over it, or through it, you had better negotiate with it.
If you want to do something, you do it anyway, and handle the obstacles as they come.
You always have to prepare for the obstacles that are going to come. Consequently, when they do come, it doesn't affect you mentally near as much as when you're unprepared for them.
When we play games, our brains respond differently to stress and obstacles. We're better able to control our attention and ignore distractions.
The chief difficulty Alice found at first was in managing her flamingo.
Almost every morning I write in my journal. I've been keeping it for a long time - I've filled more than 50 books. I write about what's going on in my personal and spiritual life or what's going on at work. It helps me keep things in perspective, especially when things get crazy or I get stressed or we have obstacles.
How you handle the obstacles has a big impact on how you do. If you give up, then you obviously don't get there, but if you're persistent, and you keep thinking of new ways to approach the business, you're more likely to reach your goal.
The bottom line is that if you become a master at handling problems and overcoming obstacles, what can stop you from success? The answer is nothing! And if nothing can stop you, you become unstoppable!
