One of the most powerful things you can do is be truthful about where you are and how you feel. Being unwilling to face the uncomfortable parts of your life will lead to stagnation. If you are feeling stuck or beating your head against a wall, ask yourself: what am I avoiding or resisting? What situation am I hiding from? What am I sweeping under the rug? What issues from my past am I unwilling to face? It takes courage to unmask the hidden parts of your soul. It takes faith to lay bare the broken pieces of your heart, but liberation is the reward for exposing the dark, covered parts of your life. Be brave enough to be honest with yourself. Lies will stunt your growth. The truth is the only thing that has the power to set you free.

Is it time to stay or move on?
This was the best advise I have received in my life when you have to determine if it is time to stay or move on.
This is a decision you have to make after you meet with your leader. Will you stay or will you go? May be your leader says he will change. If that turns out to be true, great. May be he says he will not change. Are you willing to live with that? May be the conversation you had with your leader did greater damage to the relationship. As someone once said: “Relationships are like glass. Sometimes is better to leave them broken than to hurt yourself trying to put them back together.” In the end you may not be able to change the people around you, but you can change the people you choose to be around.
If you are still having a hard time trying to decide whether to stay or go, ask yourself this question: If I weren’t already working here, knowing what I know now, would I want to become part of this organization? If the answer is no, it’s time to go. If the answers is “I don’t know” ask yourself again in six months. If the answer is yes, stay and learn how to work with your leader.

Sometimes you have to fail miserably to be forced onto the right path. Sometimes an intense struggle isn’t God’s way of teaching you something, but rather God’s way of telling you that you are moving in the wrong direction. Rather than forcing something that doesn’t fit or beating yourself up because you are not good enough, why not ask this question? Is it possible that there is a better path for me? One that aligns with my unique gifts and strengths? And if so, what is it? You must find the right place for you. Whether in your career or relationships, the place that looks impressive to everyone else may not be the right place for you. A good place is not the same as the right place. If you are moving in the wrong direction, be humble and willing to change the course. In what ways are you forcing something to happen that simply is not a good fit? In what ways does pride or caring too much about what other think keep you moving in a direction that is not meant for you? What new direction might it be time to embrace?

1. What answer are you waiting on?
2. What message is being offered to you right now?
3. What areas of your life do you need to focus on while you await your answer?

6. What is it time to let go of in order to make room for something new to come into your life?
I’m sure you can come up with more questions. Have the courage today to come up with your list, be honest with yourself and get those questions answered and take action.

Good Management of Bad Experiences Leads to Great Growth
How do you usually respond to bad experiences? Do you explode in anger? Do you shrink into yourself emotionally? Do you detach yourself from the experience as much as possible? Do you ignore it?
Every problem introduces a person to himself. Each time we encounter a painful experience, we get to know ourselves a little better.
Pain can cause us to make decisions we would like to put off, deal with issues we would rather not face and makes changes that makes us feel uncomfortable.
What we do with that experience defines who we become.
What separates people who thrive from those who merely survive? I believe it is how they face their problems.
It doesn’t matter who you are, where you live, what you do, or what your background is, you will have to deal with bad experiences. You have to have realistic expectations when it comes to pain and problems. You cannot avoid them.
It doesn’t matter what you gone through in your life or what you are currently going through you have the opportunity to grow from it. It’s sometimes very difficult to see the opportunity in the midst of the pain, but it’s there.
I can give you a list of all of my problems. People truly think I dont have any, the reality of the matter is that I do, but I confront my problems very different than most people and that’s why I have been able to turn things around. I would love for you to be able to do the same. There is always growth and opportunity in every bad experience in life.
When I do mastermind from the book the 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth, people tend to have difficulties with this law. It can be very painful but in reality it should not be.
Remember, if you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always gotten. If you want to arrive in a new destination, you need to take a new path.
“Facing difficulties is inevitable, learning from them is optional “

Let Your Why Direct Your What
Success comes from knowing your purpose in life, growing to your maximum potential and sowing seeds to benefits others.
It will be very hard for you to grow to your potential if you do not know your purpose.
Once you understand your purpose, you need to prioritize your life according to that purpose. If you don’t, you’ll continually get off track and you may never feel a real sense of fulfillment and completion.
