Do you ever wish you had more money, were in better shape, had a job you truly loved? Well why can’t you?
The reason many of us don’t get what we want in life is because of US! We stop ourselves from getting where we want by living in our bubble and refuse to get uncomfortable.
We tend to focus on what we wish we had instead of working hard to get what we want! We see rich people and think “I wish I had more money” and then go back to irresponsible spending, no budgets etc…
If big things were easy to accomplish in life everyone would be doing it! It’s the growing pains and struggles that make us strong and shape us to the best we can be day in and day out.
My husband and I frequently talk about how we feel so blessed to learn what we have in life so far, because we have the strength and where-with-all to overcome so many obstacles in life. I embrace problems and obstacles and view them as growth and learning.
