INTRODUCTION
Scrolling through social media, you likely see a dozen picture-perfect lives that don't match your own. When scrolling, you likely feel your life doesn't match up to others', especially when a challenge or hardship comes your way. I'm going to let you in on a little secret, though. Everyone faces obstacles. Whether or not they choose to share those obstacles for other people to see is up to them. Instead of dwelling on comparing your obstacles to others, it's most helpful to focus on yourself, gear your mindset to overcome the obstacle and turn it into success.
But how does one do that? Many obstacles feel daunting and impossible to beat. As a result, it is easy to become disillusioned or give up on the obstacle altogether. Or, like some people, you may get resentful of others who seem to overcome any obstacle and turn it into success with ease.
