So what do you think is the one thing you, me and everyone else will encounter on the journey of realizing your goals?
No, it’s not the haters either. Even though we’ll have to deal with those too.
It’s problems, challenges, and failures.
If you’re anything like me, you’re not to crazy about failures and setbacks. As a matter of fact, if you could have it your way, you would remove all the obstacles that you’re currently facing.
Although, I’m still not a fan of problems and the necessary failures of success, I’ve learned that they are needed. Not only the challenges that come as a result of trying to build your dreams but also the hurts, curveballs and disappointments that life will throw at you.
I’m sure you are familiar with your share of these.
As you know, in order for a caterpillar to transform into a butterfly, the caterpillar must undergo a process inside of a cocoon. If you’ve ever seen a caterpillar trying to break out of the cocoon as a butterfly you’ll notice the new butterfly fighting it’s way out of the cocoon using all his might to flap his tiny little wings and bust out of there.
Well did you know that if you tried to help the little guy and break open his cocoon for him that he would fall out and die? Why? Because the butterfly learning to exercise his strength in flapping his wings while breaking out the cocoon will be the strength that he will use to function and fly as a butterfly. He must learn to overcome that cocoon challenge in order to fulfill his purpose as a butterfly.
Same with you. I know that you may want to break out and run from all your challenges, pain and setbacks but those things have been allowed in your life in order for you to have the experience, compassion, ability to relate, strength, integrity, tenacity, patience and faith that you’ll need to achieve your dreams.
Trust me when I say that I know these curveballs of life can test your faith. I know it may be difficult to believe for things to turn around and it’s easy to give into discouragement. I’ve experienced some super overwhelming trials in which the only thing that has gotten me out victoriously was my relationship with God. There is no way that I would have made it out without my faith. That’s why I’ve created a very special and encouraging audio lesson to help you strengthen your faith on your journey.
I’ll be teaching on:
- Ways to strengthen your faith
- Learning to trust Who you have faith in
- Understanding God’s character
- Faith for the journey of success
- Battling negative thoughts
- Using the power in your words to change your circumstances
- Praying prayers that get answered
I want you to have this message and listen to it as often as you need to so I’m offering it for only $10 so that you have no excuse to allow yourself to be defeated any longer. God loves you and He will never leave you. He is right there with you in your cocoon giving you the strength to fight back in faith. He’s simply using me right now to encourage you.
