Problems are just Tests
Many of the tests put before us are tests of courage. To see if we deserve the rewards of accomplishing our goals. If we end up causing physical harm to others, then we are probably on the wrong path and should stop and rethink our purpose. However, if we are not causing physical harm to another these problems and obstacles are tests, and often when we feel furthest from success it is probably closer than ever. What is our reaction to these tests? Are we doing and reacting in a way that helps us to go forward? Often our bad reactions cause a negative spiral effect further downward. Leaders learn to focus, and work harder to get through the tough times faster. Tough times don't last, but tough people do.
