Our natural disposition in the face of an approaching storm, whether in nature or in life, is to batten down the hatches and endure the onslaught hoping that we come out safely on the other side.

However, the storms of life offer opportunities for growth if we are fully engaged in working through the period of difficulty. There will be discomfort, but if we are open to the situation and the process, and not resist it, the odds are we will be able to navigate them and come out better on the other side.

The ability to overcome challenges also boosts our self-confidence, as we acquire new coping skills and learn things about ourselves that we would not have known.

 

 

Best wishes and have a great day!!
