The title of today's article "Are you overcome or do you overcome?" is indeed a most important question for you my friend to answer honestly. Now just in case you don't know yet, life in all of its aspects can be tough at times as things do not always run smoothly, or as previously planned. Now a whole lot of people get very excited as they establish their goals and start to dream about a really great future. However, when they encounter their first major problem as they progress along the road of life toward the proverbial success city, they get completely floored, throw their arms in the air and with a most negative, very painful look on their countenance exclaim "Now what am I going to do?" In other words, they allow problems along the way, which incidentally we all experience from time to time, to completely overwhelm them.
Yes my friend, the true test of a person comes as they encounter severe problems as they pursue their objectives. At this point, when obstacles are placed in their way, the losers of the world are usually overcome. They throw up their arms in the air and quit. On the other hand, the winners after their initial disappointment having been confronted with a serious setback, step back from the project, take a few deep breaths, grit their teeth and determine to overcome the difficulties encountered and thus proceed toward success city with renewed energy, determination and resolve. These are the kinds of people who always succeed in the end.
Yes my friend, being and more importantly remaining successful in life is not always a simple, straightforward task as we all encounter problems as we pursue our goals, from time to time. However let me remind all of my valued readers of the definition of the word "problem" which is a matter proposed for solution according to Webster's Dictionary. So it logically follows, that all problems have solutions, and you my friend, are fully equipped to seek solutions to all of your problems as they occur. So you can indeed overcome all of your problems and go on to victory.
Think about it!
