Stumbling Blocks.........

We all have them. Not problems, not everyday annoyances, but blocks. Things that are in your pathway to success. Okay, so maybe you're as successful as you want to be. Go You!!! But if you're not, then figure out what that boulder is in front of you that is keeping you from getting to the end of that tunnel. No confidence? No time? No encouragement? No this, no that? Is your stumbling block cement and unmovable or is it just something that scares the heck out of you and you don't want to address it, acknowledge it or deal with it. Is it laziness or complacency? Is your give a 'whatever' broken? I don't know what yours is and frankly I don't care. What I do care about it that if it is keeping you from reaching your potential, then it's a problem. Why you ask? Because you are not being your authentic self. You are not getting to the goal line. You are keeping someone else from their 3 pointer because you haven't achieved yours. Do you get this? Do you understand that we are all linked and the weakest link in the chain could be you. Maybe you have a song to sing, an invention to invent, a book to write, a speech to make that will trickle down and disintegrate someone else's stumbling block. And then they will in turn help someone else. So here's your choice. Sit and stare at that thing in your path or knock the thing out of the way. Gripe and mumble and grumble about life, or take it and shake it and turn it upside down and succeed. I have a stumbling block, you have one too. And if you think you don't, then you are fooling yourself. Because not one person on this planet has reached their peak. There are always steps to take, lessons to learn, gifts to give and goals to achieve. Help yourself help somebody else. Stumbling Blocks.......sit and stare, or move mountains. Your choice. Your life. Your contribution.
