Overcoming Your Obstacles and Having Superiority

Overcoming Obstacles

We achieve to the degree that we overcome the

negative. Conquerors are willing to pay the price

necessary to overcome anything that stands in their way.

They sacrifice, struggle, work continuously while being

alone, weary, and discouraged. They overcome the

negative despite all obstacles. Overcoming obstacles

is simply one tool required in the work shed of successful people.

Success can be measured by the magnitude of the obstacles

which have been overcome to achieve it. Not by the rank you

have obtained in your chosen field.

The more insurmountable the obstacle that has been surmounted,

the more successful the accomplishment.

Life’s tools are, in all cases, found within ourselves and must

be searched for and obtained at all costs. Effort is required of

the seeker and honour is bestowed on the sweat. If there were

no obstacles to overcome, would there be as much sense of

accomplishment? If there were no effort required, would there

be as much satisfaction in acquiring the success seek?

Important in life is to overcome, success is secondary.

Inherent in life is the desire to give everything you’ve

got – to conquer is secondary. If too much emphasis is

placed on winning then too much focus is taken away

from the effort you can place into the work at hand.

Superiority

We gain the advantage in any situation through

the use of the tools we have at hand. We gain the

advantage by utilizing the tools to accomplish things

before they need to be done – positioning, planning,

working, desiring, focusing, reasoning, learning, …

Those who plan ahead of the approaching action

will have the advantage. They will be the winners.

The key to winning a circumstance is to take advantage

of opportunity before problems present themselves.

Why wait for a flood to repair a levy?

If we do everything that is necessary, then how can we be at

a disadvantage to someone without that conviction?

Why worry when we can better utilize your mind’s focus

with thinking and planning ahead.

You can tell a lot about a man by the way he handles

himself in unfavourable circumstances.
