I have been reflecting a lot on all the challenges and pain I have experienced in the last 6 years.
From divorce, financial struggles, overcoming addiction, closing a business after 23 years, self value and self worth struggles and I am sure some I am forgetting some.
I could have thrown my hands up at anytime and just said screw it. I am done, I am a loser, I don’t deserve it and I will never amount to anything.
However, this is not what I did.
I beat addiction
I beat the financial issues
I beat the divorce and have an amazing relationship.
I have the self value
I have the self worth
I closed the furniture store and I am building a new successful coaching business.
The pain was meant to guide me to the place I am now.
Reflect on the painful moments in your life. You may be experiencing them right now. See if you can find the pleasure in the pain.
