Transforming Obstacles into Opportunity 

By  Debbie Nicol

We are human, and struggle hurts. Struggle stretches us to take decisions between leave it and run, or stay in it and break through. I know I choose to let the struggle strengthen me and sometimes even redefine me, equipping me and my business for a better future.

Sure it’s risky to try something new. I’m bound to make mistakes and I’m bound to step into the unknown. Even so, while my breath is taken away, I know I still have two feet to stand on. I know I’ll learn something, even if it is what not to do again.

Sure it will show me what I don't know. How fabulous is that.

Sure I will take it at a pace that works for me. Bite-sized chunks, one foot in front of the other. I will always see how much of the obstacle has gone with each step and how much remains. Little by little, the opportunity will take over the obstacle.

  • What will tell you the next step into the unknown is right or wrong for you?
  • How little risk will keep you from danger, and how much will take you into danger?
  • While converting obstacles into opportunity, do you desire learning to be a consequence or an outcome?
