Committing To Resistance

Sometimes the thing we try but fail at is only one adjustment away from working.  If we quit before we discover what the necessary adjustment is, we may never know how close we were to succeeding.  As it turns out, resistance is a normal and necessary part of the growth process.  When we meet resistance, … Continue reading Committing To Resistance
