There was a time in human history when day to day life required difficult and challenging activities in order to meet basic human needs. Things had to be done out of necessity and survival due to limited tools and more safety nets. As I write this piece, people don’t necessarily have those challenging life circumstances to motivate them to be proactive and be better in character.

Technological advances have made life easier as it relates to education, work life, travel, access to food, and communication (especially over long distances) to name a few. In many ways, our dependence on these artificially created resources have made us weaker and more fragile when life gets uncomfortable. As a result, it is easy to quit when things get hard and the true fulfillment that comes from being the best version of yourself is never reached.

What I know to be true is that not all gifts come wrapped up – the worst circumstances of your life have the seed of potential to give you the greatest advantages to build your character – it all depends on you placing your focus in the right places, deciding to control what you can and using all your resources to the best of your ability.

In this guide What an Opportunity, I will provide perspectives and practices that will help us become more emotionally resilient and mentally tough as life will inevitably have fluctuating circumstances and emotions.
