BOOK EXCERPTS


Climb Every Obstacle
is arranged so you can read an obstacle a day or select your most challenging obstacles for your inspiration.
It is written in a clear, straightforward, and encouraging tone to promote a consciousness of vitality and success.

The right hand page is a passageway. It may have an inspiring story about someone who has overcome that particular fear-evoking obstacle or the page may contain a quote, a poem, a proverb or scripture reading for you to affirm your inner strength. The left hand page is about the obstacle. It opens with a quote and is a direct message to you. At the end of the page is an opportunity step that requires you to take action. Within two pages you can examine the obstacle, focus on possibilities for you, and then exercise the opportunity step.

Obstacles are a part of everyone’s life DNA. You are not alone in this trek to overcoming them in order to magnify your potential. Be better today because of your yesterday.

Once a week, we will highlight a different obstacle on this page. Return to the website every week to learn stronger coping strategies and how to use the obstacle to step into a new world of opportunity.

Obstacle Week 1: ANGER

“Anger is a wind which blows out the lamp of the mind.”
—Robert G. Ingersoll

ANGER averts achievement. It is a wasted, perpetual emotion. Until you release inappropriate anger, progress is thwarted. However anger is appropriate in response to an injustice that needs to be righted. The achievement key is to release anger once the situation or person has been confronted.

Examine your anger. Ask:

1. Who is my request of?

2. Has my request been spoken?

3. Is my request reasonable?

Anger is only one letter short of danger.

Opportunity step:

Use peaceful words/actions today
