Seize This Moment Of Adversity

Seize This Moment Of Adversity

Seize this moment because – well – it might be just what you have been waiting on.

Maybe this was the push you needed?

Maybe your life is headed in a different direction now, but what doors does that open? What things are now possible?

I, for one, am thankful for a few pushes I have had over the years.

Although, at the time, they felt more like punches in the face.

The point here is that a changes in life can be the beginning of something new.

What will you do?

Perhaps you’re stuck in bed recovering. Well, now you have time to write. Perhaps your emotions are overwhelming and painful, turn it into material. You lost your job or a relationship? That’s awful, but now you can travel unencumbered. You’re having a problem? Now you know exactly what to approach that mentor about. Seize this moment to deploy the plan that has long sat dormant in your head. Every chemical reaction requires a catalyst. Let this be yours.

-Ryan Holiday, The Obstacle Is The Way
