B, C and D

Life is C between B and D. B stands for birth. D stands for death and C stands for challenges and choices. Our lives are made up of daily challenges. Most of them small and some are bigger, but sometimes we get really knocked back with serious life challenges. What comes next is your choices on how you interpret the challenge, how you face the challenge and then finally what you choose to do with the challenge. These challenges are thrown at us from all angles and all shapes and sizes and the choices on how we handle the challenges of life are what we truly control. Too often we choose to take an easier path with our choices. We look to get rid of our discomforts that life's challenges create instead of embracing these challenges. When we embrace life's challenges and choose not to take the easy way out, we find out what we are truly capable of.  We always find out we can handle way more than we thought possible. This is what creates true fulfillment in our lives. It has been proven over and over again that when we embrace life's challenges our brain starts to view challenges as a positive. We become stronger mentally and emotionally. We start to realize that true successes come from these challenges. We decide to stop making excuses of why we can't do something. We choose to pivot and adapt our lives to the challenges instead of giving up and saying " Well I can't do this now because......(fill in the blank)". Now we say "Just because I have this going on now doesn't mean I stop doing......(fill in the blank again)". Embrace your challenges. Do something with your challenges. Prove to yourself that you are unstoppable. Use your challenges as building blocks for your inner strength, compassion and the empathy that is needed to live your heart filled life.
