| | Friend,
One thing I know for sure is that there will always be obstacles and challenges on the path to our dreams. That's just part of life.
There was a time when challenges would completely derail me. I would give in to thoughts such as "maybe I'm just not meant to be doing this", or "maybe I just don't have what it takes". My ability to stay on track towards realizing my dreams was weaker than the fear of doing so and therefore, in the presence of challenges, I would cave.
But that is no longer the case; when roadblocks present themselves I go into problem solving mode and so, this is a testament to the fact that we CAN learn resilience to stay the course. You too can learn to overcome obstacles and roadblocks so that you can ultimately create the results you set out to achieve.
The truth is that if everything was 'easy', we probably would not appreciate it as much. At the end of the day, when we have worked hard and persevered through a lot to achieve our goals/dreams, it is THAT very fact that makes the victory sweeter. It's in the knowing that we have 'earned' our results that makes them that much more rewarding.
Today's blog post offers you 10 strategies to overcome the roadblocks that can, and often will, present themselves on your journey. Apply these and begin to develop the tenacity and grit that is required for you to realize the results you seek.
That IS what I ultimately want for you.... for you to feel the exhilaration of pushing through, going around or jumping over the things that you could have let stand between you and your victory!
To your success!
Much love ♥,

| | P.S. Some people are stuck in the 'if only I could (had, was)' loop, thinking that something is missing from them as being the reason for experiencing an obstacle or roadblock. They believe that if things were different they would know how to overcome what's getting in the way. The truth is that problem solving is a skill, just like any other and I am here to tell you that you will develop the tenacity and perseverance to reach your goal 'not matter what' when you ultimately DECIDE to do so!! Need my help deciding? I am HERE for you! ♥

| | Top 10 Ways to Overcome Obstacles and Roadblocks |
| | Overcoming obstacles is just a part of life since most of us have some sort of hurdles to overcome each day. How we deal with obstacles and adversity defines our lives.
Some obstacles are more serious than others. You might crave potato chips, only to realize that the bag is empty. This is a minor obstacle and the solution is obvious. Bigger obstacles require an effective approach and a high level of perseverance.
I put together 10 tips and strategies that you can use to overcome any obstacle or adversity:
Take responsibility. Blaming circumstances or others for your roadblock ends up dis-empowering you. If you believe the cause for the failure is outside yourself, there’s.... (continue reading here...) |

Stephanie was happy go lucky person on the outside. She appeared strong, confident and successful but on the inside... there was another story going on. Having been raised in a very turbulent home, Stephanie struggled with self-esteem and spent much time in self-defeating thoughts and beliefs. She came to the realization that her beliefs were keeping her a prisoner in her own mind and were affecting all her relationships especially with her husband, children and friends. The pain of this realization and her desire to live a truly meaningful and joyful life led Stephanie to reach out to me.
Together we explored her beliefs and scrutinized the very things she was holding as hard truths. Stephanie had to find the basis for what she believed and what she feared in order to determine its validity. She was also guided to see herself from a very different perspective and reality, one that was very aligned to what she secretly knew to be true. Little by little she began to challenge her thoughts and beliefs and started taking different actions. She evaluated her new results and over time began proving to herself that the beliefs she had been holding on to were only based on a story rather than fact.
Where relationships were once a challenge, Stephanie now enjoys a deep and authentic connection with many friends and family members. Her clear view of herself, her abilities and strengths allows her to confidently approach friendships knowing the contribution she brings to them while also being aware and grateful for what she receives back.
Stephanie is now a happy go lucky person, is strong, confident and successful and exudes the inner strength and peace that comes from having truly discovered her authentic and higher self. (the names have been changed to insure anonymity)
