Here's the truth:
There's no mountain top WITHOUT the mountain that's holding it up.
There's no delicous cake WITHOUT time in the heat of the oven.
There's no winning a marathon WITHOUT the long, 26 miles of monotonous, challenging, road.
There's no healing, transformation, achieving of a goal, becoming who we want to become or growth WITHOUT having to go through times of great struggle, challenge, set-backs, discipline and hardship.
In our world where we are constantly being told that there's a way to 'hack' our way to where we want to go - it has become increasingly pervasive for people to believe that the challenges that are in their way are the things that have 'gone wrong' in their lives. Are the things that need to change, get out of the way, be fixed, be eliminated or otherwise are a sign that we can't keep moving forward - because we aren't seeing reality.
We aren't seeing that the obstacles in our way ARE the PATH.
We are believing that the challenges - the mountain that requires that we climb unstable rock-faces, have to wade through deep, cold waters, have to navigate nature and preditorts, the heat of the oven, the length of the road - as the thing that's STOPPING us from getting where we want to go.
Instead of seeing reality - that these are the very things that are TAKING us where we want to go.
Today I want to explore why the challenge IS the path, it's not the impediment to the path. Why climbing the mountain is the only way to experience the mountain top, why we need the heat of the oven, why the path from start to finish is the THING - so that we can start to reorient how we view the challenges that are in our lives right now in a more helpful way.
We need to learn that there's no way to actually become who we want to become, or to experience what we want to experience WITHOUT the challenge - the challenge isn't in the WAY of what we want, it IS THE WAY to what we want.
