“Look fear in the face and it will cease to trouble you.”
-Paramahansa Yogananda
Life has its own trials and tribulations. And if it dampers your spirit then, whatever you are pursuing is not worth pursuing. For, any pursuit irrespective of its nature calls for devotion. So, even if you fall, for the thousandth time, you will dust off, rise like a phoenix and never speak of your loss.
It is not a passing phase for you, it is your devotion, your reason to believe and breathe. And whether it is about loving a person, running an enterprise, maintaining a household, or becoming a business tycoon, you have to choose to fall in love with it, again and again, every morning, especially in the face of adversity.
Perhaps, adversity is not as vicious as we have proclaimed it to be. For, it is in its face, we come to know a lot about ourselves, our people, world, and sometimes, even the ancient wisdom dawns on us.
Those choices that are difficult make us tough and strong and prepare us for upcoming events. Those choices alter our courses of action. Those choices anchor our lives and are capable of great changes when it comes to our personal, professional, and spiritual developments, for it sags us out of our comfort zone and tosses us around until we really know who we are.
