Move Forward Despite Everything
This post started off on a very different topic. That's okay, when you are going after a goal there are times where the process will take you to very different places. Go forward through thr process and enjoy the journey.
At times you will face what seems like endless amounts of obstacles, and at times that could be the case. You have to decide if the goal you are pursuing is worth overcoming all of those obstacles. Depending on the goal it will probably be worth overcoming all of them.
As you overcome obstacles you create opportunities. If you capitalize on those opportunities, that is where you create magic in pursuing your goals. Those are the moments that you have breakthroughs, successes and chances that didn't exist before hand. It is a satisfying feeling. Keep overcoming the obstacles to keep giving yourself those magic opportunities.
A skill I learned over the years as a martial artist is if you are on the attack and there is no open target, your job is to create an opening. Then you attack that opening. If you don't see an opportunity for yourself, then create one. If you're not sure how, figure out how others have done it in the past and borrow from their experience.
Falling, tripping, crawling are all things that can happen when you are moving forward. I mean those in a metaphorical sense depending on the goal unless you are running or walking, than they can be literal things that happen. Keep going forward despite it all.
