Pain is part of growing

Pain is part of growing.

Sometimes life closes doors because it’s time to move forward.  And that’s a good thing because we often won’t move unless circumstances force us to.  When times are tough, remind yourself that no pain comes without a purpose.  Move on from what hurt you, but never forget what it taught you.  Just because you’re struggling doesn’t mean you’re failing.  Every great success requires some type of worthy struggle to get there.  Good things take time.  Stay patient and stay positive.  Everything is going to come together; maybe not immediately, but eventually.

Remember that there are two kinds of pain: pain that hurts and pain that changes you.  When you roll with life, instead of resisting it, both kinds help you grow.

Without some pain there is no growth. When you are comfortable, you don't need to do anything. You've got to get uncomfortable in order to grow.

When you belly is full and you have a roof over your head, TV and internet, what else do yo really need?

In order to grow, you've got to get uncomfortable. How? Tony Robbins said simply "Raise Your Standards".

So raise your standards, refuse to accept your comfortable mediocrity, set some goals, and start immediately to take massive directed action towards those goals.
