However, if you ask her now she would tell you that it made her experience of creating success and building success that much more rewarding. The things that held her back are the things that eventually made her move forward. She would doubt herself and her abilities, but if it weren't for the few people in her life that gave her the support and the strength she needed, she might have given up. These things made her the brilliant and confident woman she is today. The obstacles in your life create character and change you as a

In life, there are obstacles that we all have to overcome one way or another. Obstacles come on various levels and often it’s not about the battle, it’s about the impact of hardship on your life that results from the battle. Under one occurrence that I’m grappling with now, I know it’s something I have to go through to grow, and that it’s all in the will of God.

Surpassing struggling times in our lives causes us to feel so much more powerful afterwards. Sure, hard times are rough, but it is surmounting past those tough times that makes everything worthwhile. Like the popular saying goes, “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” Obstacles are meant to get in the way, but it is up to us to keep running over them because they really do make us stronger-willed people afterwards.

I have been confronted with many obstacles throughout my life. Some adversity temporarily altered my course through life, while other hardships have shaped the person I have become.

Once again, the man of God revealed the details of his assignment, however, this time it was not to a king, but to a man who formerly operated in the same office as him. This was his third and fatal folly. There must be some aspect of our spiritual destiny that no one knows, but us. It is with this hidden information that we can distinguish our friends from our foes. The enemy will always speak contrary to heaven’s plan for our lives.

From a young age, I have always faced obstacles, many that would easily discourage others, but I never allowed that to happen. It was a choice and a decision that I made at the age of 5. I understood that you cannot change the impossible, but what was possible was making a choice. All events and obstacles, unfortunate or outstanding, are life’s grinding stone. We are a knife, able to be sharpened or able to be ground down into nothing. When we are faced with these events, it is up to us to determine

Obstacles in life are really challenges and choices that we make, placed there to help us grow as a person.

Reflecting on where I am in life currently and the endeavors I have successfully executed, it is also important to consider the endeavors I grappled with.
