It’s not always the best, when things come to us easily. I remember as a child most of what I accomplished came to me easily, but that didn’t prepare me for fighting for what I really wanted in life.

What I have come to learn over the course of my life, is that, when things are hard, it makes us persevere, it builds character, it teaches us a lot about who we are, and the places where we need to grow. We can gain so much, if allowed, when we face hardships with a healthy perspective.

I always related something being too hard to do with impossibility. However, that does not mean that it’s impossible, it sometimes just means, this will take a lot more grit, grind and this truth, just because it’s hard, doesn’t mean it’s impossible.
