I\u2019m ageing up, that could become important to me.<\/p>\n<p>Isn\u2019t that how our lives work?<\/p>\n<p>We accidentally do something we hadn\u2019t intended and then have to fix it. I think sometimes those accidents aren\u2019t accidents. Sometimes I think those things are blessings in disguise! I would never have considered enlarging the view. I would have squinted.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>Because we don\u2019t know what we don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n<p>When life throws something at us, we are being shown something new or different. Without this new view, we would keep on doing what we are doing exactly the same way we always have. There may be 10 different ways to do something better, but, for us, we choose to do what we know because learning is so hard.<\/p>\n<p>Is it? Is learning hard?<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, yes! Sometimes, no. Learning is hardest when we are stuck in our old ways. True? When we are looking for a better way and something presents itself, its really easy to try, because we are open and ready for that which is new!<\/p>\n<p>When we are accustomed to how it is, we don\u2019t look for a better way. It\u2019s our way or the hi-way, right? Yup. We humans would rather struggle along that try something new. Because we might fail. We might not do it \u201cright\u201d or perfectly the first time.<\/p>\n<p>And yet, failure is the beauty of learning. We can let that attempt go because it didn\u2019t work for us. Instead, we get discouraged and forget to try something else. It takes great courage to step out of same-ol\u2019 same-ol\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>So how does one access courage? Often courage is thrown at us when the option of giving up isn\u2019t available. My computer screen view was HUGE. Two words and the page would shift! Totally unworkable! My options were struggle or find a better way.<\/p>\n<p>With the fear of failure far less in energy than the HUGE WORDS IN MY FACE, courage happened. Even if I screwed something up, that\u2019s better than what I was experiencing!<\/p>\n<p>Was that courage or was that desperation? Sometimes courage is both! Courage isn\u2019t the lack of fear, it\u2019s the willingness to move beyond fear to a different outcome.<\/p>\n<p>I bet you are facing something or some things right now that you don\u2019t want to face. Yet, you will. You will find the courage and you will find the better way, the clearer path.<\/p>\n<p>Courage is already there. Courage awaits your awareness.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes things have to get HUGE IN OUR FACE before we can see it\u2019s time to take a new look. With that new look comes a new path. You can and will walk it with courage. It\u2019s already there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, I accidentally clicked a couple of buttons thinking I was going to capitalize something . . .
